Old movies..

At this time of year I can't help but love to watch the old black & white monster movies. Frankenstein, The Wolf Man. But also some John Wayne movies, The Cowboys, Liberty Valance. Maybe some Clint Eastwood movies, but more like Kelly's Hero's.

I enjoy the classic by Alfred Hitchcock "The Birds" I would watch this movie over and over as a kid.
I always liked trying to find him within the first minute or so of every movie he made. He was always there (usually in the crowd).

I actually read or heard somewhere that after he heard that so many people were waiting for him to make an appearance and scanning crowd scenes, he started putting his cameos in the beginning so then the audience would not be distracted from the story.

Rented the BluRay of The Wild Bunch. Loved the accuracy of the weapons of the time. But watched the commentary and one of the actors said after his wife watched the scenes where they got plastered on wine in Mexico with the Senioritas that she'd never let him go south of the border again.

TallGeese, The Man who shot Liberty Valence is an EXCELLENT movie!
