I did a couple of things that were out of character for me this summer. One was conscious, the other --- not so much. The conscious decision was taking a University course on Hannibal. Ever since I was a kid and saw the absolutely terrible movie version of Hannibal’s war with Rome, starring Victor Mature, I’ve had a fascination with the subject. A couple of times I’ve tried to envision...

Ted Kennedy Jr. gave a warm and touching sendoff to his late father at the funeral Mass today. There were many highly emotional moments, but the part that I liked most was his quoting his father's line, "I don't mind not being president. I just mind that someone else is." There is, of course, a great deal of stagecraft in such a line, intended to communicate a certain level of humility to...
Classic film star Victor Mature was photographed nude at some point with his peen hanging off a ledge. It looks quite mature! See for yourself after the jump (NSFW).
Go away. Will you go, please? Go. You know, leave? Vacate the premises...hoof it. Please. And, you are not moving. Why is that? Did somebody steal your sense of direction? The exit is yonder. No, it's not directional disability keeping you here. So, what is it, then? Oh, sure. You came for something. That something which only I can give you. That would be my delightful smile, right? Snort, guffaw....
British director Michael Winner's biggest film was probably the surprise international hit (and sire of multiple terrible sequels!) DEATH WISH. His most interesting choice as a director may well have been WON TON TON-THE DOG THAT SAVED HOLLYWOOD, the all-star flop about the classic days of old Tinseltown. By 1979, however, he found himself with a mess. FIREPOWER had, according to IMDB , originally...
I’ve just been reading Bruce Sterling’s very basic and direct list of eighteen things that are making conventional publishing difficult if not obsolete. Sterling comes from the world of cyberpunk and Wired where he has a blog, or did. This list is quite brilliant, not at all exhaustive, and worth an essay for every point. (see http://www.wired.com/beyond_the_beyond/) But it doesn’t...

I know he’s busy throwing his arms around Paris, but that doesn’t mean Morrissey has to spend all of his time eating crepes and gougères — and none of his time exercising. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I’m all for having a shapely physique. I’m not exactly Victor Mature or Van Johnson, after [...]

Okay, so Van Johnson wasnt Cary Grant or Fred Astaire but he wasnt Victor Mature or George Raft, either. In other words, he might not have been one of the true greats but, yeah, he could act and dance...
Carole Landis tells Victor Mature: “Don't worry, Barack will save us. Ohio has gone for Obama. Ditto for PA, and New Mexico. I'm gonna go and have a drink of something or other—something very strong. Oh, wait, I don't drink. Liquor gives me migraines. Okay, I'll watch an old movie instead. Probably The Man From Down Under (1943) a little known Charles Laughton gem. And oh boy, get a load...
