She acts like one. Alec Guinness bizarrely miscast.

RW would rightfully win in a landslide cuz it's the only time the material prods the hauteur until something sexy emerges.

I think I would allow for some sexiness in To Catch a Thief

Dislike.

It's amazing to me that she quit the business entirely once she became a royal. Not a guest spot on Columbo or nothin'.

i feel like i've seen more GK movies than i actually have, prolly cause hitch strove to make every single leading lady of his look like her from '54 on.

Didn't Rainier forbid her to keep acting? For some reason that comes to mind.

Hitchcock almost got her to do Marnie, they say

JD, she only made 14 films total, and some of those were small parts.

anyone seen 'the country girl'? looks promising.

it's dreadful!

Every fifties cliche: the emphasis on psychoanalysis, making a woman ugly by having her wear glasses, William Holden as garrulous prig (and still giving the best performance), laughable even for its time view of artistic "genius."
― a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 25 July 2012 21:59 (thirteen years ago)
kind of perversely interested in seeing it now!

as Odets-based films go, much better w/ The Big Knife
― Pangborn to be Wilde (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 25 July 2012 22:08 (thirteen years ago)
I love The Big Knife!

yeah, but those are still photo, not films. I think Alfred's point is a good one.
― Neil Jung (WmC), Wednesday, 25 July 2012 23:58 (thirteen years ago)
photos, plural
overruled, amateurist - proceed

TCAT is okay.

It's Hitchcock lite, but in that category it's the tops.

I have this line in my head from The Deer Hunter where John Savage's character mentions getting a visit from Princess Grace.

wait i don't get it - alfred are u saying grace kelly is not sexy?
i think i love her brand of sexy, subtle, almost dorky, endearingly in contrast with her appearance, which isn't entirely subtle at all
― surm, Thursday, 26 July 2012 03:31 (thirteen years ago)
but honestly i don't really know what i'm talking about
