I’m previewing movies for LTS’ Winter of Westerns. Not my native classic film language, but pretty sure some good choices are lurking.

theincomparable.comI Think They Did It! (Lions, Towers & Shields 146)Here is an early film by David Lean about a chance encounter at a train station that leads to complicated feelings for both parties. It’s “Brief Encounter.” Ceilia Johnson (ever heard of ‘er?) gives a nuanced, emotional performance. And the film is very real and down-to-earth, despite the intensity of the relationships depicted. It’s a love story, if you’re interested in genre things, but there’s plenty for cinephiles to appreciate as well.

The amount of editing required in a Thog convo to cut the cursing is hilarious. #BB28

theincomparable.comHungry Like The Wolf (Lions, Towers & Shields 145)Cary Grant, Ingrid Bergman, Alfred Hitchcock. OK, I’m pretty much done. What else shall I say? WWII intrigue, a love story, a well-played villain. These are also things I could say. Also, the length of the kiss between Grant and Bergman put the Production Code office all in a tizzy.

theincomparable.comCut-Rate Hitchcock (Lions, Towers & Shields 144)It’s the final edition of Lions, Towers & Trek, wherein we feature someone from Star Trek: The Original Series in a film they made before the show. Here’s DeForest Kelley’s film debut; a rare lead role for him. DK is a man suspected of a crime, who must rely on his disjointed memories and his cop brother-in-law to learn what happened.

So BB icon Rachel is symbolically “killed” to make room for some Survivor person. She may be great, but the optics are weird if you’re not a Survivor fan. #BB28
