Quite right!

I'll see your Barnaby, and raise you a Barnaby:

Barnaby Jones is the detective on Barnaby Jones...(Buddy Ebsen).

After several days of heavy rain some bees were out in the sun today and drinking from shallow runoff water. To the right, a small pollen cone.

Originally an animated student film at CalArts!

It is difficult to adequately convey how huge this was, how extremely popular this was at that time.

Both AM and FM radio had this on "heavy rotation," crossing over different genres of stations and playlists.

This album drove sales of big-speaker stereo systems!

A different time altogether....

Be sure to also read the source novel by Dorothy B. Hughes!

Thanks for posting your images and travel guides!

We have only visited Ireland once, sadly only once, but, we did see this tomb when we were there! The Burren was entirely magnificent, of course.

It's lovely to be reminded of our great trip, thanks again!

You should do socks that emphasize the look of snake scales, maybe go realist python!

Any mention of Marvin's Purple Heart should always include that he received it because he was injured by a machine gun.

It just makes him that much tougher, although he didn't really need to be any tougher than he already was on screen.

Well...how women were treated was suspect, vis-a-vis mini-skirts on the female crew-members and scantily clad alien females, yes?

Charlie B.!

Slow-motion silver dimes....

Historically important film re: visual effects, and how business models within vfx work.

Original recipe ET with the guns, or the reworked ET with the walkie-talkies?

Reworked ET has the fixed finger (CG) for the glowing touch on Elliot's forehead, a CG ET in the bathtub with bubbles, plus other stuff too....

Re: sharpened teeth on skull

Skull in the climax transition has sharpened teeth, both the physical prop and the CG model.

Vein and muscle regeneration was path-animated shapes in Maya, rendered with Renderman.

Thanks for that quote.
Every year I covered all of my school books in the plain brown paper of reversed grocery bags from the local market. My mother showed me how when I was really young, and I kept doing it even into college. Some are sitting now on the bookshelf behind me.

Oh oh, the variations on "Michael Caine"!

#TCM exists today due to colorizing old black-and-white films. Older unrestored analog film transfers then (late 1980s) did not have the contrast levels needed for rich color representation on his cable channel (TBS). Turner&company invested in new digital transfers, sparking the revival of B&W.

Thank for showing #AWomansVengeance !

And thanks for all of the great viewpoints and observations from the #FilmNoirClub group!

It's great to see how the same author, Huxley, can rework their own original works when given different forms of expression.

The variations are so interesting to analyze.

Expanding the doctor's role, revealing Janet's childhood trauma, and...changing the ending!

You should have put a "Pro tip" at the front of that!

Yes, he said that.

re: examined with “the coldness of the vivisectionist” –

He does come from a long family tradition of scientists, after all.

Darwin's Bulldog, Thomas Henry Huxley, for example.

Hey, John Williams as the Prosecuting Counsel.

The transition line of his toupee in Dial M for Murder always distracts me, sorry, it needed to be said....

Jessica in shades, very cool!

The character of Doris is (to me) more innocently portrayed in the film than she is in the short story.

His son Edward Hardwick will always be that great 2nd-tier Watson to Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes (television).

And he makes that "surprise" appearance at the end of the original Day of the Jackal.

#FilmNoirClub

Ooooh, smooth blocking and camera cover-up of Jessica's hand coming out of her purse...for some reason....

Re: favorite Charles Boyer films

I really like his character in Fanny, with Maurice Chevalier, and Leslie Caron as Fanny.
