Dang it... you're right. David Niven. I was watching that also, but... was pretty young at the time.
I have always confused Niven and Guinness. Those British types all look alike. ;-)
I own every one of those movies, except for Fast Food and Tomorrow Never Dies.

Thank you for the ping Dolly.
WOw, you are a dedicated fan!
WOW!
I may have to rethink having no interest in see that.

Spelling counts.
My two favorite GB movies are "Phantom" and "Dear Frankie", for obviously very different reasons. He was marvelous in "The Jury" and "The Miracle Match", and just plain eye candy in "Timeline" (okay, okay, Gerry Butler was the ONLY reason for watching THAT stinker) and very sexy in the second Lara Croft movie "Lara Croft: The Cradle of Life", as well as "Attila" and "Dracula 2000".
I wasn't at all impressed with "Beowulf and Grendel". I really wanted to like it, but the problem wasn't his fault: the story was choppy and sloppily told, IMO.
Here's what I have for conservative/libertarian viewpoints on the entertainment world. These are all decent sites with plenty of information as well as additional links to other sites of interest. There's probably plenty more out there that I didn't mention, but I hope that others will mention those in time. David Horowitz, among others, is involved with the first two that I mention: Liberty Film Festival- http://www.libertyfilmfestival.com/ Libertas-A forum for conservative thought on film http://www.libertyfilmfestival.com/libertas/ Michael Medved- http://www.michaelmedved.com/ Click on "Resources" on the top of his page, and "Movie Reviews" is at the top. Also, his movie minute archives are readily available at the bottom of his "Movie Minute" page. Townhall.com also has a "Books and Movies" section that includes Michael Medved movie reviews as well as movie reviews by a variety of other conservatives: http://www.townhall.com Christian Spotlight on Entertainment has plenty of film, T.V. shows, and T.V. movie reviews from a Christian conservative point of view. http://www.christiananswers.net/spotlight/home.html Rightwing Film Geek is a blog site from a Catholic conservative with an interest in films. http://cinecon.blogspot.com/ and, finally, Movieguide also has plenty of movie reviews from a Christian conservative point of view. http://www.movieguide.org/ I'm sure that the Washington Times and the New York Post also have movie reviews every now and then. http://www.washingtontimes.com http://www.nypost.com/ This is all that I presently have for links. DollyCali, you may also want to contact each of them so that they can possibly also link to your site to theirs as well as help you in a variety of different ways. For example, Michael Medved as well as others may be able to help you in arranging future live chats on Free Republic with conservative actors, actresses, and/or directors every now and then as well as provide additional resources for you in the entertainment world that would interest conservatives. I certainly hope that all of this is helpful.
I want to congratulate you for the work you have put in on this subject. You did a great and most interesting job and some "reel" work was done!!
...for those who know her mainly for stories on her fluctuating weight, her friendship with Michael Jackson or her fabled eight marriages (she wed Richard Burton twice), we revisit her film legacy to celebrate her stature as a highly skilled actress - and consummate star." from below article:
Elizabeth Taylor The Epitome of Movie Glamour
I "reely" appreciate you comments! thanks
It was a labor of love!
I love the movies but you all know so much more than I do..
I have learned a lot just from this first thread
She is such a glamorous gal. .(yes, I know she has had some "help" along the way.. For christmas a friend gave me a table top book called the jewelry of Elizabeth Tayor..Large & wonderful amount of bling for this actress from many sources.
Interesting re: Debbie & Eliz..
After I did the review I was motivated to see it again, which I hope to this month to report back my observations decades later..
Isn't that the truth...me too...I have a whole new list for NetFlex...might have to upgrade my plan, lol...
Thanks John. It looks like you have a lot of good material there. I will lookethem over tomorrow. Pretty brain dead now.
Appreciate your work & sharing it here
That is another term that is used regionally
show
no doubt a short cut from picture show
Here & a few other places I have lived folks would talk about the show & would you like to go to the show later.
the understanding was it was to the movies..
