I like watching movies a lot.
Finally got to see this noir classic in a theater (at the Gap Theatre) and on 35mm film, easily one of the best film noirs. And simply the cream of the RKO Radio Pictures crop. Nicholas Musuraca's cinematography soars here. Lots of wheeling and dealing, and no one catches my eye wheeling and dealing on the screen more than Robert Mitchum.
Mel Brooks does Hitchcock, I laughed a lot. What more could I say, it's pretty good.
Wow! Watched the 4k restoration at the Plaza Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia. Incredible noir. Orson Welles as Harry Lime, what a performance.
"Too bad we'll probably never get another chance to work on something like this."
The monster looked fantastic, there was a sort of quality reminiscent of "The Thing From Another World" (1951). Also, brought to mind a Something Weird Video title I watched on dvd recently "The Deadly Organ" also known as "Feast Of Flesh" released in 1967 but shot in 1965 in a loose way. Which wasn't shot in the Philippines like this movie, but in Argentina. In more…
