Pink — The Pink Panther…. The 1963 Original ONLY.
Lavender — The Lavender Hill Mob
Purple — The Purple Rose of Cairo
Gold — How about this 1937 Conrad Nagel special?
Finally, Silver — as in the 1948 western, Silver River.
Did we miss any?
And All The Other Colors!
July 3, 2020Written by Joe Morella and Frank Segers
I know these are duplicate colors, but:
Silver Streak, in my opinion Gene Wilder’s best effort, with the great Richard Pryor and the great Jill Clayburgh in the bargain!
The Boy With Green Hair, with Robert Ryan as a sympathetic shrink. Such a strange, interesting effort. Early Joseph Losey effort before he fled to England during the blacklist and went on to make some of the strangest movies ever.
But the star of Green Hair was young Dean Stockwell. Maybe you gentlemen can do a week or so of Hollywood siblings. Dean and Guy Stockwell, Dwayne and Darryl Hickman, birthday girl Miss de Havilland and Joan Fontaine, the Deschanel sisters, even Melissa and Sara Gilbert (granted, TV actors, primarily). I know I’m venturing way out of classic Hollywood, but the list of siblings in the industry is quite long.
Alright, enough digression.
I saw “Silver River” this week during Ann Sheridan month on TCM. I don’t know if Ann Sheridan was a good actor, but she is riveting to watch. Her beauty, voice and demeanor give her something indefinable. Maybe not “Oomph”, but certainly “It.” Just can’t get enough.
Have a happy, safe holiday weekend.
