(Dateline #BornToKill, 12 minutes in.) It's a mark of Claire Trevor's stature as an actress that she was able to live down that hat. #TCMParty

This is a cartoon about FELINE TRAFFICKING! #TCMParty #GayPurree

I keep hearing snippets of the score for Wuthering Heights, which Alfred Newman also composed. #HowGreenWasMyValley #TCMParty

Does anyone know how to fix the problem where Deck Blue won't let you log in without an extra password you never set up or a verification code they keep sending to some mysterious place that isn't your email? It used to just stay open without making you log in.

I have always found the phenomenon of Walter Pidgeon intensely baffling. Why would anyone ever want to watch him in anything? #JustSayin #HowGreenWasMyValley #TCMParty

"Now look, I hardly know the man!" "Sure, but you'll get over it." #BestDialogueExchange #OnlyAngelsHaveWings #TCMParty

"Broadsword calling Danny Boy." #OopsWrongMovie #TCMParty

I've never understood what these guys are risking their lives for, thought. That's the one thing about his movie. #TCMParty

That's gotta be one of the Beery boys playing Joe... #TCMParty

I want to go back to a world where us girls were all ex-showgirls and could sit down at the piano and entertain a saloon full of scruffy fellows. #TCMParty

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose

READ THE ADMIRED THINGS OF CULTURA

Nat Pendelton's greatest line, the one about "bringing the body right up to you." #CineJanes

You absolutely will not read a better academic thread on BlueSky this week. This sort of thing is what makes having an account here worthwhile 🗃️

I just looked at a one-minute-fifty-nine-second trailer for Hamnet. It made me feel I'm gonna get bludgeoned to within an inch of my life by the idea of art.

I hate that i missed all the fun tonight, but I got a phone call that lasted a long time. Love to you all and see you next week, I hope! #DriveInMob #Cinejanes P.S. Is DiM doing cheesy Xmas movies all month?

Can I just say that I love Vincent Price because he was such a bad actor and knew he was a bad actor and went out of his way to be a bad actor and you could always see what tremendous fun he was having while he did it. #CineJanes

That was oodles of fun @hollyeh13.bsky.social . There's nothing like reveling in the antics of a truly bad woman. Keep off the lake, everyone! #CineJanes

Sorry, why did he go to prison? That's never been clear to me. #CineJanes

Too bad there's no such thing as cross-examination. #CineJanes

Chekhov's Cuban heels. #CineJanes

"I guess killing the kid crossed some sort of line. I don't know. <shrugs> Oh, whatevs." #CineJanes

Does she just heckle him or does she actually hit him over the head with an oar? #CineJanes

Is that how you spell wisteria? I think not. #CineJanes

This movie but in this scene he yells at her like Jack Nicholson in The Shining. #CineJanes

She doesn't fool Chill Wills for a single second. #CineJanes

She is so over the whole ailing brother thing! #CineJanes

Poor Vincent. He can never keep Gene Tierney's attention. #CineJanes

That was Chekhov's Ruthless Woman near a Lake. #CineJanes

Hmmn. That scene sort of gives us the wrong impression of her. #CineJanes

They're both just such completely unrealistic-looking people, lolol. #CineJanes

Plaid flannel shirt alert! #CineJanes

Jo Swerling wrote the book for Guys and Dolls. Just sayin'. #CineJanes

imho James Garner really is the guy that everyone thinks Steve McQueen is. Garner's fit was so powerful that McQueen threw a tantrum about it and insisted they swap costumes.

Hey, 'Janes, check out Madeleine Stowe's Seventh Victim vibe in the latest incarnation of Stephen King's It, complete with a suggestion of what if they're not actually bangs are certainly bangs-adjacent! @culturalgutter.bsky.social @hollyeh13.bsky.social @theasabin.bsky.social @1an0maly.bsky.social

So much fun. It truly never gets old. Thanks, Carol, for keeping a great tradition alive, luv. Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! #CineJanes

Ew! She kisses him! #CineJanes

You know what we mght watch sometime? Cast a Dark Shadow, with Dirk Bogarde and Margaret Lockwood. It's sort of a similar plot. #CineJanes

I'd forgotten this version of her appears first. #CineJanes

That was jake! Really, on the level! Thanks @driveinmob.com and @culturalgutter.bsky.social for hosting a thrilling Thanksgiving bouillabaisse of racism, misogyny, and tragic aspiration. And thanks, Mobsters, for the laughs and good company! #DriveInMob

That's quite the corsage she's wearing! It's bigger than Kong. #DriveInMob

"That'll teach those troglodytes to engage in racial stereotyping!" #DriveInMob

... here is the same cat sitting in a bowl with a party hat on. Negatives from my collection, ca. 1950s.

Poor Fay is thinking, "Christ, this is worse than Thanksgiving Day football!" #DriveInMob

This is what Tennessee Williams used to refer to as "a gentleman caller." #DriveInMob
