The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
https://www.movieforums.com/images/l...s/film-1-2.jpg Before anything else I just want to say that I have a newfound respect and appreciation for the hosts of every countdown before this one. Not that I didn’t respect them, nor have appreciation for what they’ve done before. It is just that now that I have experienced the task of putting one of these together I have the newfound respect and appreciation. :) I want to say a big thank you to everyone who took the time to watch the films in preparation for this countdown. And a big thank you goes out to everyone who submitted a list. Also, thanks in advance to everyone (whether they were directly involved in the outcome of the results or not) for following along with the countdown. Being a “victim” of Photobucket, I just want to say that I am very grateful to Yoda for helping out when it came to the photos that will be added to this. Thank you. :) I also want to thank Citizen Rules for helping out in whatever way that he could. Thank you!!! Some brief information regarding the countdown: - To get things started today, only the one point films will be revealed - The countdown itself will begin tomorrow (Monday, the 11th) - Two films will be revealed everyday from number 100-11 - After that, one film will be revealed each day from number 10 – 4 - The last three films will be revealed on the final day -The films will be revealed between 5-6 PM Central time during the week -They will be revealed during the same hours as today (2-4 PM Central time) on the weekend - There were 57 lists (9 partial) with a total of 276 films on those lists - Ties were broken by the number of lists a film was on. Then, if necessary, a tie was broken by the film that placed higher on a list I believe this will be happening over about 2 months (if my calculations are correct!). This was an excellent decade for films, and we have a very good variety that will be appearing on this list. Hopefully everyone checking this out today will keep coming back until the end. |

I know it won't say that the thread is updated if I just edited a post, but if you look at it now (and you have seen it before), you will see that the one point films have been added. :)

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Yeah! I'm stoked for this Some damn fine 1 pointer choices by the our fellow MoFos. I'm not sure if I had any of those on my list. I'll go check.....
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Jane Eyre was my #25. One of my favorite performances by Orson Welles.
Love that film strip photo Vamp, very cool! The other photos look great too. I can tell you put a lot of time and heart into this:up: |
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Nice 1st pointers.
I'm the one who voted for The Keys of the Kingdom, very good film with a good hearted center character. |
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Some very good one-pointers there, looking forward to following this from the sidelines.

And when I saw The Cat Concerto, the first thing that went through my mind was "I wonder if that is going to be that Tom & Jerry cartoon where he is playing the piano". And I was right. :D

I haven't seen any of the 1 pointers and I've never even heard of most of them.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Night Train To Munich was my NO.25. Fun fast-paced espionage thriller with a great peformance by Rex Harrison. I believe this is the best film from director Carol Reed, though it's not as visually sound as his later work. Never a dull moment in it and there is nice dose of humour to even out the twisty suspense. Highly recommended to everyone who enjoys quick moving plot and some cool action sequnces.
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Five Graves to Cairo is the only one pointer that I have seen. I liked it, but it wasn't close to making my list.
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
My one pointer is an easy Top 20.
Then again the vast majority of my picks first start to show up in the 70's of the countdown. I look forward to a good list. |

|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
This Gun For Hire is a decent enough noir.
The Keys of the Kingdom has been on my radar for quite a while, mainly because I'm interested in seeing Vincent Price's early dramatic roles. |
Buck Privates Come Home (Charles Barton, 1947) This one has to be GBGs, she's the only person on the site that likes Abbot and Costello. As far as I know and I'm pretty sure I remember her saying she was a fan of their movies. Angel and the Badman (James Edward Grant, 1947) This is one of my favorite John Wayne films, thanks to Gail Russell. |

Jane Eyre almost made my list, it was one of the last five films I cut.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Yay, it's starting!
The only one of those one-pointers I've seen is Jane Eyre, which I liked (although like all of the many adaptations, it's not a patch on the book). The early parts are particularly good, including a young Elizabeth Taylor as Helen Burns. I thought Joan Fontaine better cast than Welles - she played a very similar role in Rebecca. Wasn't on my list though. I guess my #25 must have been on somebody else's list as well since it's not on the list. |

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Uuuh, I should've voted for The Cat Concerto! Love me some Tom & Jerry and that one is excellent!
I have watched and rated most of the original Hanna Barbara Tom and Jerry's, which made me just skip them all altogether instead of finding one to put on the list... shame on me... Anyways, apart from that, I've seen jack so far... |

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Nice beginning, Vamp! I've never had a one-pointer, but I've seen all of these except one.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Glad you're doing the countdown in this fashion Vamp. I've got stuff to do this week so I won't be able to out my full attention to the list.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
I didn't think it was likely but I've actually seen one of the 1 pointers.
I unfortunately didn't watch enough films to submit a list but I'll still follow this countdown for stuff to add to my watchlist. |

As far as I know and I'm pretty sure I remember her saying she was a fan of their movies. That's a good guess, but nope, :nope: it wasn't mine. I love Abbott & Costello movies, and I considered several of them for my list, but only one of their movies made my list, and this wasn't it. But now I'm curious who had Buck Privates Come Home on their list. My 1-pointer didn't make this list, so at least one other person had it on their list. Hopefully that means that it made the countdown, but it's a movie that I rarely hear anyone talk about nowadays, so it's probably a long shot at best. I've seen these movies from the 1-pointers list: This Gun for Hire Night Train to Munich Words and Music Buck Privates Come Home The Cat Concerto Jane Eyre I haven't seen You Gotta Stay Happy, but it sounds like my kind of movie, so I added it to my watchlist. |
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
They ran Abbott & Costello movies on Sunday mornings when I was a kid so I've seen 'em all and Buck Privates is one of their best. Some great bits like The Dice Game and the About Face. Serious reps to whoever voted that one.
This Gun Is For Hire is a pretty decent noir. Arch of Time was my one pointer with Boyer and Bergman. Wonderful movie and one I'd figure would be a strong candidate for One Pointer. Thanks so much @SilentVamp for hosting this. It's off to brilliant start. |
The Cat Concerto is the only one pointer i've seen. It was one of my two nominations in the Animated Shorts HoF; it finished third. Curious if it was a member of that HoF that voted for it, sorry if the person that voted has already mentioned it not got alot of time so i had to skim through the thread.
Thanks alot again Vamp for taking the time to do this :) |
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Five Graves to Cairo was my one-pointer. It's not even close to being one of Billy Wilder's best films, but I just like it a lot. But looking at the list, I should have included This Gun for Hire. I so love it, and I think Veronica Lake was the most stunningly beautiful actress of any era. Alan Ladd is pretty cool, too.
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Cat Concerto was my #25. It's been a favourite since I was a kid and now my kids love it.

The only other noir 'rub out' scenes that come close is the opening scene in The Killers when the Swede gets it....and Pickup on South Street the scene with Thelma Ritter. I wonder if either of those will show up on the countdown?
Ahh, two fine choices, I would hope they would be higher. I considered both for my list, especially Mrs Miniver, but just didn't have the room |

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Hideko the Bus-Conductor was the 25th film on my list. Hideko Takamine is so cute in it. After I watched it, I wrote:
Hideko's smile at the end. I watch movies for moments like this.

I am quickly posting something from the library. :)

Sergeant York and Miss Miniver Is anyone else going to take a chance and say what they think might be the first two films to appear on the countdown? :) I know I said that I would be on here to reveal the films everyday between 5-6 PM unless there were unforeseeable circumstances. Well, today there just happened to be an unforeseeable circumstance. I had to get my brakes taken care of (a broken brake line, to be exact). I JUST got out of there (I was there for about 4 hours because of the wait to get looked at and then get it fixed). Anyway, I have a bunch of things that I still have to get taken care of today (never planned on that much time being spent there today :(). So, there is the chance I can get home and get this done by 5-6, but let's play it safe and say between 6-7. If I get home before then, I will do the reveal right away. But let's just assume the later time for now. Sorry about that, guys! :) |
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
that's rough, needs must, so no worries, SV

Alright. I am back. :) Just give me a couple of minutes and I will get this started. :)

Seen neither. I'm not sure if i've ever seen a #100 or #99. At least i've read both stories the films are based on. Might watch one soon.
Great layout Vamp :up: |

Haven't seen Body Snatcher either, been curious to.
Have seen Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. VERY good version. Seen: 1/2 List: #25 Arch of Time 1 Pointer |
I've seen Jekyll and Hyde several times though not in many years. Nice to see some horror show up.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Great lay-out, @SilentVamp!
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Yezzir, film from my list has already made an appearance !!! The Body Snatcher was my NO.10 . It is precisely what I like in my horror. Really great story, heavily reliant on ominous atmosphere and a great performance by Boris Karloff. The final carriage scene is beyond chilling and will definitely stay with me for a while. I'm glad to see that film of Val Newton's production received some recognition.

Since two horror films started off the countdown, does anyone have any predictions of what may follow those?

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Wow, @SilentVamp. Using screenshots of the on screen titles is awesome! Must've been a lot of work. Nice! :up:

Hey, was going to make this a private list as i don't think anyone cares but just in case. I'm going to be keeping up with a list for Letterboxd - https://letterboxd.com/camarel/list/...-of-the-1940s/
It's mostly for me as i like to know how many films i've seen and it's a little annoying when we're 60 films in or whatever having to find my last post or go to the first post and count how many i've seen, this does an automatic count if you have the films marked as watched so it's easier. Just in case any Letterboxd users want to bookmark it for the same reason or whatever. |

|
I think I was the other Body Snatcher vote. My favorite Lewton flick.
I prefer the 30s Dr. J, but I really enjoy that one too. A fun start! |
Damn is this true?
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (where Fleming was based) acquired the rights to the 1931 film, originally released by Paramount Pictures, in order to keep the earlier film out of circulation. Every print of the 1931 film that could be located was destroyed, making it essentially a "lost film" for decades except for clips until a full version was found and restored.
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
I'm gonna pull a Miss Vicky this whole countdown...
haven't seen neither. |

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
2 I've not seen and haven't really heard of, I might check them out eventually.
|
As usual, the top starts with two I haven't seen :D
I've heard great things about these two renowned horror classics but never considered them as top priority, probably because I don't care that much about horror. I'll check someday. |

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
I wonder how many films were destroyed by the studios and are still lost for reasons like that or the director doing it to his own films due to studio interference. John Ford destroyed scenes he felt didn't fit in with Young Mr Lincoln because the studio wanted to put them in.
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
I would predict 2 more horror based on the way that was worded. So, The Uninvited and Cat People
|
Wow, great work Vamp! Even if none of mine were to make it, I'd enjoy following this one. Very pleasing to the eye, as has been stated.
Words and Music, Buck Privates Come Home, The Cat Concerto, Jane Eyre, and Angel and the Badman, ---I've seen all of them. I'm ashamed to say that I've yet to You Gotta Stay Happy, seeing as how James Stewart is my favorite actor. I must rectify that. I've heard of the rest, except Hideko the Bus-Conductor. The Body Snatcher is an excellent movie and definitely one of Karloff's best and Henry Daniell was every bit his equal in this. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a fine film also, with Spencer Tracy and Ingrid Bergman giving the best performances. I also prefer the 1931 Frederic March version but this one is a nice remake. I'm also one of those Abbott and Costello fans. I came very close to putting my favorite of theirs on the list, but there were too many other movies so I had to make some cuts. Once again, you're doing a fine job, Vamp! Nothing from my list yet, but I can't wait for the next entries. |

If you guys ever fall behind on the countdown, I've started to link up each film to the second post of this thread: https://www.movieforums.com/communit...30#post1774530 |
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
haven't seen either, want to see both
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Nice layout Vamp, very stylish and 40's era appropriate:up:
I've seen both films, Body Snatcher is one of my all time favorite horror films, it's so moody and well done...with a very believable plot. It was on my short list but didn't make the final cut, but only because I have so many 40s film that I love. I've seen, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, it's good but nowhere close to the 1931 precode classic with Fredric March and Miriam Hopkins. I do expect everyone to watch that version;) before I do the 1930s Countdown...well you have more than a half a year I'm guessing:p |

|
@SilentVamp, I love the layout. :up:
Not surprisingly, these two horror movies weren't on my list. I haven't heard of The Body Snatcher, but any movie directed by Robert Wise, and starring Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi might be worth checking out, so I added it to my watchlist. I've seen the 1941 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but I thought the 1931 version was better. (However my favorite version is the Broadway musical version starring David Hasselhoff.) |
Well, the first two of our 100 are both from Robert Louis Stevenson stories. They weren't on my list but they're both watchable. Karloff and Lugosi were in eight movies together, and this is as entertaining as any. My fave scene Jekyll/Hyde is below.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJO0BImGChY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z93ckeSzXE |
A solid enough start - seen both, neither were on my list though :shifty:
|
Mark, that was a wild scene! Especially him thinking of Bergman and Turner as horses he's whipping and driving fast. :eek:
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Haven't seen either of those!
|
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
the more I look at The Body Snatcher the more I want to find it. Sadly, coming up bumpkis, but not stopping the search though
and gotta echo CR about the great format on page 1 - really ideal for the decade! doing so I realized I never mentioned another 1 pointer I've seen and give proper credit to: Angel and the Badman. A really good western that I had only finally seen in the past year or so. Glad to see someone voting for that one. |
Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the Forties: The Countdown
Im kinda dissapointed that my first film from my list Angel and The Badman was only on a 1 pointers list. BUt John Wayne had allot of movies in the 40s 50s and 60s. But then again Angel and The Badman was my 25th film and almost didnt make the list but did the last minute.
