Rudolph Valentino died in New York on August 23, 1926. The next day, crowds filled the streets outside the Frank E. Campbell funeral home at Broadway and 66th St. during his memorial service. Valentino lay in state for several days and thousands of mourners rioted, smashed windows, and fought with police to get a glimpse of the deceased matinee idol. Standing guard by the coffin were four Fascists, allegedly sent by Italian leader Benito Mussolini but in fact hired by Frank Campbell’s press agent.

Idol: its history

A portraitist sees flesh quantitatively, like a butcher. In the course of professionally seeing flesh the artist may come to know desire, but his job is to look past what he knows to what he only sees: flesh’s light and color and shape. Because he has starved his senses in the brutal slimming salon of formalism, we customers of his ordeal have been enabled to look at the formal result and say…

Not Captain related but “I found your ring piece” may be one of the best “naughty” lines they’ve ever managed to sneak in

i am once again feeling shrimp emotions about tony curtis’s performance as sidney falco

#it’s like. to transform yourself from bernard schwartz into matinee idol anthony curtis #and then reverse everything you worked so hard for to make this risky little indie picture #to go back to your roots. stop being tony curtis. go back to being bernie schwartz from the bronx.#it’s just. so poignant and so magical and it works. it worked on literally every level.#and it works BECAUSE he was anthony curtis. it works BECAUSE he knew he was good looking. he channeled all of that into his character #and played against it. showed us a range no one but him knew he had.#sidney falco is one of the greatest characters in movie history. and tony's performance as him is literally up there with the greats #i'm not fucking kidding. the way he navigates the world of this picture. the complexity all playing out on his face #sidney is so many people and tony plays them all at once #AND HE MAKES IT LOOK FUCKING EASY

Personal Property, 1937, Is Playing on TCM on October 24 at 4:30 a.m. (USA)

Personal Property, 1937, is playing on Turner Classic Movies on Tuesday, October 24 at 4:30 a.m. Robert Taylor, Jean Harlow and Reginald Owen I’m a sucker for this movie. I’ve watched it many times and never fail to enjoy the excellent visuals, the superior acting and just the general silliness of it all. Robert Taylor is wearing much too much makeup but looks great anyway, especially in the…
