It was a nice surprise.<br /><br />Herschel, I watched a little of DETECTIVE STORY last night, too. It's a great example of a filmed play. And Bendix is good in it. He could be an effective villain, too. For an example of that, see THE GLASS KEY, another film that should have made my list. I'll have to start another one.Terence Fahertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05928381496296429254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-78103496088108564542013-06-25T12:29:02.862-04:002013-06-25T12:29:02.862-04:00I just watched "Detective Story"

The cast features a young Trevor Howard.<br /><br />Toe, I don't think "The Boot" is from MY FAVORITE BRUNETTE. Its terrific supporting cast includes Lon Chaney, Jr., and there are a couple of surprise cameos. The movie slipped into the public domain and there are a lot of bad prints floating around as a result. The recent restored reissue is worth seeking out. <br />Terence Fahertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05928381496296429254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-60892962931519344862013-06-25T08:55:15.836-04:002013-06-25T08:55:15.836-04:00I was interested to see Bulldog Drummond listed- h...I was interested to see Bulldog Drummond listed- he was one of my late father's enthusiasmsJanice Lawnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-21764250159195818012013-06-25T08:38:00.581-04:002013-06-25T08:38:00.581-04:00Was Green for Danger based on Christianna Brand...Was Green for Danger based on Christianna Brand's Golden Age mystery?

But, of the ones I recognize, my favorites in order include "Laura," "The List of Adrian Messenger," and "D.O.A." I too had a crush on Vera Miles, but I was only 13. Yours truly, Toe.
