I love the ending to The Getaway. (I caught the last fifteen minutes, just now.) I am seriously disappointed that Junior Bonner is not on the schedule, a criminally underrated Peckinpah McQueen film.

I decided to change the Thread Title and make this about the entire TCM’s Summer Under the Stars schedule. It’s always my favorite month on TCM as every day is a marathon on a different star. It is always a good mix of the well recognized, underrated, and unrecognized actors. The mix of films is also similar. I should have posted this earlier as we are already o Day Eight, but I have included the earlier days as they might be available On Demand from your provider.

I’ve never seen Junior Bonner. I really like The Getaway and think it is a much better film than Bullitt. Bullitt is a great ten minute car chase sandwiched between 1hr 40min of tedium.

Yeah, a good analysis of Bullitt. Robert Vaughn really sucks in it, which is part of the problem.

I think the car chase is even overrated. The Vegas car chase in Diamonds are Forever (in another Mustang) was equal imo.

During the chase, you see the same Volkswagen bug over and over at different times. In Back to Bataan, if you watch closely, you can see the wire that jerks John Wayne out of the foxhole during an explosion.

A hard task. So many good ones. A lot of classic standards and lot of underrated ones. Here’s a rough list of thirty that popped out to me. Not trying to start any arguments, personal tastes vary.

Alphabetical order, but The Best Years of Our Lives is my favorite movie.

  • Bringing Up Baby (1938)
  • Casablanca (1942)
  • Dark Victory (1939)

  • The Dawn Patrol (1938)
  • Foreign Correspondent (1940)
  • The Fugitive Kind (1960)
  • The Getaway (1972)
  • The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947)
  • Horse Feathers (1932)
  • Indiscreet (1958)
  • Inside Daisy Clover (1965)
  • Laura (1944)
  • Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House (1948)
  • Mr. Lucky (1943)
  • Now, Voyager (1942)
  • The Pawnbroker (1964)
  • Rear Window (1954)
  • Seven Days in May (1964)
  • Shoot the Moon (1982)
  • Stage Door (1937)
  • Stars in My Crown (1950)
  • The Sting (1973)
  • Teacher's Pet (1958)

The Lady Eve (1941) on TCM at 8pm tonight, Tuesday. Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda, a con-woman gets her revenge. It’s a farce, wildly improbable, but one of the top three funniest screwball comedies, The Awful Truth and Bringing Up Baby being the other two. A true classic. Trust your friend LionJim. Directed by Preston Sturges.

A great line, “He does card tricks!” Lmao.

Gunga Din (1939) at 8 ET tonight, Sunday. Cary Grant day. A very old fashioned adventure flick, very enjoyable if you’re into these sorts of films, fits very well into the “you gotta see this at least once” category.

The Killing (1956) at 11pm ET tonight, Friday. Stanley Kubrick’s first big film, one of the best perfectly-planned-heists-gone-wrong films. Marie Windsor day, she was Hollywood’s peak B!tch Wife in her prime, especially venomous in this one. Quick and compelling as all get out.
