It's a good, if bleak, b&w film. Harris and Rachel Roberts were both nominated for lead acting oscars. Roberts soon commited suicide (drinking acid) over her divorce from Rex Harrison.larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11303321349392877733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-19051169102109866282017-10-31T23:48:25.327-04:002017-10-31T23:48:25.327-04:00Oh yay!

I’ve missed these and 1963 is a year that many films I love came out so an auspicious return.<br /><br />Top 11 (I just couldn’t get it lower):<br /><br />The Birds <br />I Could Go On Singing<br />The Prize-I saw that Pierce thought it was boring but I love it. It has a Hitchcock feel and an amazing cast. I doesn’t hurt that Paul Newman is at the peak of his beauty and the scene leading up to that snap you posted is his escape from some villains in a nudist colony. No actual nudity but he spends a great deal of time in a tiny towel. <br />The Running Man<br />Love with the Proper Stranger<br />Mary, Mary<br />The Thrill of It All<br />The Courtship of Eddie’s Father<br />The V.I.P.S<br />Wives and Lovers<br />A Child is Waiting<br /><br />Next 10:<br />All the Way Home<br />Hud<br />Toys in the Attic<br />The Great Escape<br />My Six Loves<br />A Ticklish Affair<br />McLintock!<br />Contempt<br />The Servant<br />The Haunting<br /><br />Other runner-ups:<br />The Pink Panther<br />The Sword in the Stone<br />Move Over, Darling <br />For Love or Money<br />Captain Newman, MD<br />The Three Lives of Thomasina<br />Sunday in New York<br />The Wheeler Dealers<br />The Stripper<br />The Caretakers-Not really a good film but a hoot and a half with Joan Crawford playing a doctor in a nuthouse overseeing a bunch of women gone round the bend.<br />Papa’s Delicate Condition<br />Come Fly with Me-Dolores Hart’s final film before entering a convent is a cute romp about three stewardesses looking for love in the friendly skies.<br />The Yellow Canary<br />The Mind Bendersjoel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-49962898549345755992017-10-31T15:49:56.307-04:002017-10-31T15:49:56.307-04:00With regards to what you haven't seen, The Gre...With regards to what you haven't seen, The Great Escape is a good action film; Bye Bye Birdie is fun, Lilies of the Field is poetic; The Prize is boring. Never seen Diary of a Madman; Tom Jones is delightful. Never seen Shock Corridor or heard of Blood Feast.<br />8 ½, a great film <br />Beach Party, loads of fun <br />Billy Liar, Tom Courtney and Julie Christie. Enough said.<br />The Birds, brilliant! <br />Charade, my favorite Cary Grant movie<br />A Child is Waiting, directed by John Cassevetes, great acting. <br />From Russia With Love, my favorite Bond movie <br />I Could Go on Singing, Judy Garland's last film<br />Jason and the Argonauts, Ray Harryhausen's masterpiece <br />Love with the Proper Stranger, tough to see, but an important movie <br />Move Over Darling, this is what came of the Marilyn Monroe film, Something's Gotta Give, but Polly Bergen is fun in it.<br />The Pink Panther, great comedy <br />The Servant, a British classic<br />The Sword in the Stone, delightful <br />Piercenoreply@blogger.com
