| He didn't even technically direct it, only produced, though his fingerprints are all over it. I implore you to try his Cary Grant trilogy (Bringing Up Baby 1938, Only Angels Have Wings 1939, His Girl Friday 1940) before you write him off entirely. (If you're more of a film noir guy, his Bogart duology - To Have and Have Not 1944 and The Big Sleep 1946 - can't be beat.) | ||||

I watched the original last night (1951) by 10/22/2024, 11:37am PDT  I liked the Hawksian dialogue and the Hawksian woman. by 10/22/2024, 11:48am PDT I should clarify my terms. by 10/22/2024, 12:13pm PDT Thank you. I didn't know anything about "Hawksian" anything. by 10/22/2024, 12:18pm PDT The Thing isn't the greatest example. by 10/22/2024, 12:41pm PDT Thank you for this. I had no idea this was a thing. NT by 10/22/2024, 1:18pm PDT I sensed a definitely rhythm to the dialogue, the overlapping, ratatat style. by 10/22/2024, 3:45pm PDT |
