Thank You Sean for doing a great job running this HoF. :up:

I'm very happy to see Laura win this HoF. I nominated it for the Film Noir HoF a while back, and I think it came in 4th place in...

I'm glad you liked Arsenic & Old Lace. It's one of my all-time favorite movies. Just reading the lines you quoted is making me laugh thinking about it.

I sent in my list.

I'm still going to try to find time to do my last few write-ups, (as soon as I can figure out which movies I haven't done yet), but I wanted to make sure that I didn't forget...

I don't remember the inspector saying anything about why he thought it was murder, but I'll watch for it when I rewatch the movie. The only thing I remember him mentioning was that the step wasn't...

I'm sorry that you didn't like Arsenic and Old Lace, but if it makes you feel any better, Cary Grant said it was his least favorite of his movies. :shrug:

The Suspect

I liked this movie a lot, but there were a few minor things that bothered me, all of which could have been fixed if the movie had just been a little bit longer.

I would have liked...

How Green Was My Valley

I've always been a fan of Roddy McDowell, but I haven't seen any of his early movies, so I really wanted to like this, but sadly, it didn't do much for me. It looks nice...

I think there's an unwritten rule somewhere that says that every HoF that I join must have at least one scene with a spider in it. :suspicious:

I watched all the movies, but I haven't had the time to write about all of them yet. (Heck, I've barely had time to read what other people wrote about them here.) But I can send my list in before...

I think whether or not love at first sight or a very short romance is believable in a movie has a lot to do with the chemistry between the two actors. In some movies, the actors have such great...

Rope:

I've seen this movie several times, and IMO, this is not Hitchcock's best movie, but it's up there near the top of the list. It's one of those movies that I seem to notice more and more...

Thief of Bagdad:

I'm sorry to hear that you didn't like Arsenic And Old Lace. Thanks for at least giving it a try.




That's the whole point of a screwball comedy. If people just communicated properly, there...

I finished watching (and rewatching) all the movies for this HoF. I just haven't found the time to write about them yet. I'll try to get that done soon.

I love Cary Grant's over-the-top reactions, and I think it's kind of sad that he thought of Arsenic and Old Lace as one of his least favorite of his performances.

Just to let you know, Boris...

I never said that he broke any rules. In fact, if you remember, I didn't even ask him to change his nomination. I just dropped out immediately so I wouldn't have to watch it, and nobody would have...

IMO, it's more suspense than horror. There's no blood, gore, and/or slasher stuff. Even the violence is kept to the bare minimum. And none of the "horror elements" that you mentioned happen...

Murderers Are Among Us

I'm not really sure what to say about this movie because I didn't really like it, but I didn't dislike it either. The story itself has a lot of potential, but the...
