Melvin Hoover, a budding photographer for Look magazine, accidentally bumps into a young actress named Judy LeRoy in the park. They start to talk and Melvin soon offers to do a photo spread of her. His boss, however, has no intention of using the photos. Melvin wants to marry Judy, but her father would rather she marry dull and dependable Harry Black.

Mike Nolan (Darren McGavin) is a Beverly Hills resident whose divorce case — blown by a hopelessly inept, possibly larcenous attorney (Dick Martin) — has left him with no home, no job, and no assets, except for his car. And when the car is driven off by 16-year-old repo agent “Larry” (Denise Nickerson), Mike gives chase and finds himself hired by the brassy owner (Sylvia Miles) of the auto repossession company the girl works for.

The Affairs of Dobie Gillis (1953) Don Weis, Debbie Reynolds, Bobby Van, Barbara Ruick

rarefilm — Thu, 27 Feb 2025 16:34:45 +0000

Grainbelt University has one attraction for Dobie Gillis – women, especially Pansy Hammer. Pansy’s father, even though and maybe because she says she’s in dreamville, does not share her affection for Dobie. An English essay which almost revolutionizes English instruction, and Dobie’s role in a chemistry lab explosion convinces Mr. Hammer he is right. Pansy is sent off broken-hearted to an Eastern school, but with the help of Happy Stella Kolawski’s all-girl band, several hundred students and an enraged police force, Dobie secures Pansy’s return to Grainbelt.

It’s a Big Country: An American Anthology (1951) Clarence Brown, Don Hartman, Ethel Barrymore, Keefe Brasselle, Gary Cooper

rarefilm — Mon, 10 Jun 2024 13:09:01 +0000

The story, told in eight episodes, covers different facets of the American Spirit, from racial and religious tolerance to the dangers of self-centeredness and myopic reasoning. The parables represent a broad cross-section of the American experience: the elderly woman whose pride is injured when she’s forgotten in the latest census; the novice minister more pleased with the sound of his own voice than with the needs of his congregation; the mother who confronts the illogic of racial intolerance when she meets the best friend of the son she lost to war; and the enigma that is Texas. Episode titles are: 1) Interruptions, Interruptions; 2) Census Taker; 3) Negro Story; 4) Rosika, the Rose; 5) Letter from Korea; 6) Lone Star; (7) Minister in Washington; 8) Four Eyes; a further episode, titled Load, directed by Anthony Mann, with ‘Jean Hersholt’ (q.v.) and ‘Ann Harding’ (q.v.), was filmed but deleted.

Parker Ballantine is the most respected and forthright of the New York theater critics. Most of his closest friends are part of the Broadway community, such as his ex-wife actress Ivy London and producer S.P. Champlain. These friendships are not affected by bad reviews from Parker. Angie Ballantine is Parker’s current devoted and faithful wife, who goes with him to show openings and even waits in the newsroom for him to write his reviews. Parker and Ivy’s son, John Ballantine, lives with his father and Angie, who he loves. Angie has had problems in her life seeing projects through to completion, so Parker reacts with some skepticism when Angie announces she plans to write an autobiographical play about her growing up period. This project does become one that Angie does see through to completion, at least to a first draft stage, and despite Parker’s disdainful reaction to at least the process, she is eager for his opinion on this draft. He complies. He hates it and tells her as such.
