Love old films and music. Classic (and not so classic).

On Her Majesty's Secret Service Remastered & Expanded Lim Edition - John Barry - Sample Tracks Suite

Given the state of things, I have to take joy from the little things. Therefore, I'm happy to see that my favorite 007 score (and my favorite Bond film) is being released in an expanded form.
.. it goes without saying that composer John Barry is a legend.

With so many great conclusions to choose from I'll go with the film that arguably gave the classic era a poetic and appropriate sendoff: TOUCH OF EVIL.

#PostmarkForDanger .... well, at least I can check that one off. Too large a cast list chasing too thin a plot IMO. Next week's offering will be much better, I think.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend (and the final day of #Noirvember) everyone.

Our female lead - Terry Moore ("Alison Ford") appeared in *both* versions of "Mighty Joe Young" (1949 and the 1998 remake). Naturally, she also played one of The Joker's molls on Batman ("Venus" - reformed!).
She will turn 97 years young in January.

Laughton’s and Cortez’s dreamscape of the nightime flight down the river is, in its own way, as visually fantastical and stunningly beautiful as “The Wizard of Oz” and Murnau’s “Sunrise.” It’s a remarkable accomplishment. #TheNightOfTheHunter #tcmparty

Worse. I don't think that Laughton lived long enough to witness the critical reception of #NightOfTheHunter reverse. It's gone from a "flop" to one of the most revered films in history.
