Films not been on the telly for long time,and would you like to see?

The Quiet American (from the Graham Greene novel).
Saw it in the cinema - brilliant film, would love to see it again.

Quartet was on last night. Lovely film, stellar cast.
Of course I only caught the last bit by chance.
Memo to self - check the schedules!

I buy my favourite movies on DVD if they are never shown on TV. Like Billy Budd with a very young Terence Stamp.
I'd like to see Nell with Jodie Foster and Witness for the Prosecution with Charles Laughton.
You will never see Son of Captain Blood with Sean Flynn, son of Errol Flynn. I adored him in the 1960s and went to the cinema at least three times to see that.

Sky arts at 18:00pm friday evening features Lauren Bacall.

Two of Alan Bennett’s (should that be just one T?) -

A Private Function and The History Boys

Try You Tube for old films too.

Monkey Business with Cary Grant and Marilyn Monroe.
Anything with Cary Grant would do, His Girl Friday is another good one.

The Goonies (I know, I'm a big kid).

Dude, Where's My Car? Just because it's silly.

Hitchcocks film
"shadow of a doubt" 10:55am wednesday morning

1) Brief encounter was issued in one of those give aways in the news papers, I might have a spare copy.
Some times the DVD is seen at boot sales
2) Greengage Summer was on a few weeks ago but its also called a loss of Innocence.
3) 84 charing cross road is on Sony moviesc at 18:55pm thursday night

Monsieur Hulot's Holiday by Jacque Tati. I could watch it over and over again and it never fails to make me laugh.

A great film I came across, early 90s was, Shining Through. Michael Douglas and Melanie Griffiths. Set in WW11 Germany. I eventually bought the Video, I enjoyed it so much. Can’t find it on DVD. ?

I forgot this one,
The Painted veil

The African Queen

River of no return

84 Charring Cross Road

Death in Venice. Beautiful film although it is such a sad tale.

Out of Africa is still my all time favourite. True story of Karen Blixen, cinematography and the music.

Sabrina./Sabrina Fair

An Affair to Remember - More sobbing

Casablanca

Indochine

EV that was a more recent Mr Chips. Not a patch on the PC/PoT version in my opinion.

I would love to see again " The Three Lives Of Thomasina"
About a cat.

I was enraptured by it as a child.

I think it was a Disney production.

Oh Greengage Summer! One of my favourite books. Great film too.

Likewise, The Peacock Spring.

A few of these will be on Bflix.to. I am catching up with a lot of old TV on there.

Goodbye Mr Chips was on not long ago with Goodnight Mr Tom. I was a wreck !

Whistle Down The Wind

Witness.

Mildred Pierce.

Yanks.

Twisted Nerve.

Yes, agree about The Greengage Summer.

Jack and Sarah
Young at Heart
Sweet charity
Goodbye Mr Chips (Petula Clarke, Peter o'Toole)

Inn of the Sixth Happiness - Ingrid Bergman

Charade - Audrey Hepburn

Boy on a Dolphin - Sophia Loren

The Night of the Hunter - Robert Mitchum. A really scary film in its day.

Father Goose - Cary Grant

Death goes to school. A whodunnit set in a girls' school, with a young Gordon Jackson as the detective.

It's so wonderfully stiff lipped! Right at the beginning and ne of the pupils finds one of the teachers dead in the school grounds. She runs into the headmistress's office. The head and the senior mistress agree that she should stay with the head (after they've previously left her to go and check that there Is a body) *because they don't want her spreading an alarming tale around the school* - no concern for her trauma! Wonderful!

Love Brief Encounters with the posh Queen’s English v the grating working class screeching in the railway cafe. Wonderful!!! ???

Ohmother that would be one of mine too, along with the original version of Rebecca.

The Spiral Staircase.
Bette Davis films.
Ethel Barrymore films.
Martita Hunt films.

I know they've all got whiskers on them but I love old films.
