Kids my age loved Darth Vader, I liked Lugosi's Dracula.
I had a friend that visited this location in San Francisco back in the '90's. No one knew what he was talking about when he said it was featured in DARK PASSAGE.
Young kids never heard of Humphrey Bogart.
One great scene after another.
The diner scene with Douglas Kennedy as the cop who give Bogart a hard time is classic!
In honor of the discussions going on in the INDY 5 thread I'm compelled to watch the first outing.
Dammit all, the only copy I have is a pan and scan VHS version.
Dr. Jones wears a different fedora as he travels to meet Marion. Like Bond he's constantly being watched.
I think SKYFALL was influenced here as Marion drinks shots.
I think she could kick Bond's ass in this department.
I'm on that scene now.
Hello, Marion
I love the smile on his face right before she decks him.
This is such a classic. Wonderful fight sequence.
Damn pan and scan, though!!!!!!!!!
I love it.
These scenes have a CASABLANCA vibe.
He could have been right out of the classic golden age.
Reminds me a little of Paul Henreid.
I love this section where Indy goes underneath and finds the headpiece to the staff of ra and lets the light shine thru.
Beautiful score.
He's great. He could have played Dracula himself by the time this film was made.
Why did it have to be snakes?
The scene between Paul Freeman and Marion is great.
Ford looks scared sh*tless as he' descends to the snake pit.
I love that Lucas and Speilberg were so heavily influenced by the classic Hollywood era.
I watched a feature length edit of a 1932 John Wayne serial recently, THE HURRICANE EXPRESS, and it was one adventure moment after another.
This film really captures the essence of that era.
My dad took me to see this on a double bill with TEMPLE OF DOOM when I was a kid. There was a serial chapter shown in between of some western. I don't remember what serial it was but it was a blast.
Great times.
I've seen this film on the big screen 4 or 5 times.
Indy's getting creamed.
Such a great scene.
I love the shot if the jeep going off the cliff.
Today that would be CGI and look like CGI.
I really hope Mangold keeps the digital effects to a minimum in the new film.
THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE
Of course I'm watching this today after a long a$$ day at work.
Love John Garfield's voice over narration.
I always like movies set in diners.
I've actually watched this about 25 times in just this last year.
Quite possibly my favorite noir after OUT OF THE PAST and THE BIG SLEEP.
A crime I waited so many years before watching this one.
Hmm that almost sounds good........maybe with some coffee very black.
@barryt007 created this thread several years ago. Pity is hasn't been utilized too much. I try and revive it every now and then.
I actually prefer this, even though DOUBLE INDEMNITY is a more classic, iconic example of the noir genre.
I suppose it's like prefering THUNDERBALL to GOLDFINGER or SKYFALL to CASINO ROYALE.
I'm a pretty big fan of Barbara Stanwyck as well as Fred MacMurray, but damn, Lana Turner and John Garfield are much more up my alley.
