E, Monty and John Ireland comparin' guns in Red River is all the queer Hawks bone I need.
I (predictably) forgot Gentlemen Prefer Blondes about ten minutes after I saw it.

'Twentieth Century', 'Bringing Up Baby', 'His Girl Friday', and 'Ball of Fire' are first rate comedies.
'To Have and Have Not' has some great moments as does 'The Big Sleep'.

I also think I am about the only person on the planet who liked the new 2006 "Black Dahlia" - I liked it b/c it was done in an old fashioned genre and I could forgive the choppy nature and hasty tie up of loose ends at the end, simply for the fact that it was much like many of the '30s & '40s films that followed the same formula; but alas, back then folks were far more forgiving of putting a nice tidy end on everything. Plus it got HUGE bonus points with me cuz of the very good LA locale scenes and gritty feel. I was born 40 years too late!

Tom'w morning at 4:45, The Old Dark House, maybe James Whale's best film aside from Bride of Frankenstein.
Sirk's Tarnished Angels (his gloss on Faulkner's Pylon) Sat at 2:15pm.
Sunday night at 10:15, Living It Up, probably the best Martin & Lewis movie I've seen -- Jerry thinks he's dying of radiation poisoning after wandering onto a nuclear test site (only in a '50s comedy)...

Masque of the Red Death looks like the best thing they're showing on Halloween.

Haven't seen this since high school but I remember liking its hysterical campness as being oddly faithful to Poe's style.
Didn't see Hitch. :(

It helps if you are (or were) Catholic perhaps, it has an aura of REAL transgressive Evil, as much as Rosemary's Baby or Night of the Demon maybe.
Whenever Masque usta screen in NY in all its widescreen glory, it always had Japanese (I think) titles running at the side of the print.
Speaking of Poe, I notice that I aciidentally taped a short adaptation of The Tell-Tale Heart last night -- directed by Jules Dassin! Does TCM include the shorts sched in its program guide? They never seem to be on the website.
