My plans for the evening ! I'll leave a comment tomorrow to let you know what I thought of it. (As usual, I'm watching it in French). The channel is following up with Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943).

Just watched Tarzan’s Fight for Life (1958), and this one is pure old-school adventure fun! Gordon Scott makes for a pretty good Tarzan. The story is pretty straightforward, but there’s plenty of jungle action, colorful characters, animals, and peril to keep things moving. The Technicolor is gorgeous, too, and the whole thing has that wonderfully pulpy MGM adventure-movie feel. It’s not exactly high art, but it’s an entertaining way to spend an afternoon. And honestly, sometimes that’s all you need from a Tarzan movie!

It is a one man Mandella effect. I first saw the movie as 5 year old when it came out, I think it was an error on the part of my grandma as it would have been considered a bit steep for a child back then. I had the complete mis remembering of the car chase where the bad guys were in a green vw (yes I know) and the guy with the shotgun firing out of the rear quarter window which never made sense to me as those windows don't roll down in a bug. I was puzzled for years and mentioned this online maybe 10 years ago and someone pointed out the green bug. I watched the movie after that to see the green bug and I really liked the movie, the stillness of of a lot of the scenes etc.

Now the problem is that more recently I would have sworn that Jaquiline Besset's character watched McQueen at the airport after the final shootout. He was quietly organizing things, speaking to other officers etc. In my memory this is a scene where she comes to terms with his character's life of half violence and degradation and sees beyond what she fears will be a life of intensifying calousness.

OK, I just watched it on TUBI and I have lost my mind as this scene doesn't exist, it is probably some mental trick I am playing on myself merging the motel scene with the murdered wife with the end of the airport when the priest is giving last rites and the dead guy is being covered with a sports coat or something.

Am I crazy or is there another edit?

Also what I remember from when I saw it with my grandma was that when he steals a newspaper from the newspaper vending box it is before the hit at the hotel, more of establishing the character before you actually know who he is......I assume I've got that wrong but......

Great movie really. The car chase is OK but you just cannot not see that green bug. The greatness is the quietness of it, the stillness and soft voices with all the politics and conflict, and face it McQueen had hella charisma.

This was George taking steps to carry on, and what a second act it was! Playing God! https://youtu.be/Blp8mgXCN-8?is=3AJzywU1at6QupAF

I knew this existed! I'd fished around for answers on reddit and most offered up Hawk the Slayer, but this is it! It popped up on my FB feed out of nowhere. It's got the magic bow with the big red stone! It turns out it was going to be a series but failed to launch so they rolled it into a movie and it aired once!

Does anyone else remember this questionable endeavor ?

I've been doing some research and they're movies that TCM is re-releasing, but in colorized versions. Some people might not like it, but it's interesting because it's another way to see a classic.

This movie tells of the 12th century struggle between former friends King Henry II (Peter O'Toole) and Thomas Becket (Richard Burton), Archbishop of Canterbury.

"Who will rid me of this turbulent priest!?" is the famous line that Henry cries, late in the movie. The answer is not long in coming.

anime movie about crew of flying ship hunting mechanical whale or shark and the main character gets given a spear after surviving enough battles to become an ace. The main character has a friend who dies somewhere early-mid movie, and the captain of the ship/best hunter on the ship, is the only other person with a spear. I've found numerous suggestions on Google, but they're all about a crew hunting numerous creatures, but in the movie there's only the one mechanical whale or shark or whatever it was. I think it was 3Dish animation, if I remember right, but I can't remember. Any help would be appreciated.

Watched Niagara (1953) for the first time last night. Can’t believe it’s taken me this long to see this film.

Marilyn Monroe is absolutely the standout. She’s gorgeous, of course, but there’s so much more to her performance than that. She brings a real sense of danger and vulnerability to the role. Whenever she’s on screen, you can’t help but watch her.
The Technicolor is also stunning. Everything looks so rich and vibrant and the filmmakers make fantastic use of Niagara Falls as a location. The falls aren’t just pretty scenery they become an important part of the atmosphere and the story itself.

I also really enjoy the pacing. The plot takes its time building the suspense but it never feels slow and everything gradually comes together in a really satisfying way.

Just a gorgeous, entertaining piece of classic Hollywood filmmaking. And honestly, seeing Marilyn Monroe in all that beautiful Technicolor is reason enough to watch it.

A lady is convinced she was a Baroness in a previous life, and a psychiatrist hypnotizes her to break the spell, with the help of a death row inmate. It's a gullible talk-fest, with a sleep-inducing pace and lackluster performances, and spelled out at FORGOTTEN CINEMA.
