According to conspiracy theories practically every group in the country was out to get JFK, but it could also have been a lone gunman making an incredibly lucky shot with one of the cheapest guns available.
This was a pre-code production, so scantily clad women and illegal behavior, such as drinking alcohol which was forbidden by law at that time, could be shown. The title refers to the innocent Professor Post not knowing what a speakeasy was, which was a sort of secret club where those in the know could obtain alcohol. He corrected it to "Speak Easily," in other words instructing how to speak, and it became the name of the show and the movie.
The films of Vincent Price. Chronologically I am up to 1952 with three films skipped because he wasn't in them enough or I couldn't find a good copy, but I have also seen a lot of the later films so I'm up to 73 as of last night.
Possibly <i>The Quiet Man</i> but it's hard to say.
Ray Bradbury.
A friend of mine always said, "If you're going to have an idol, pick someone who's dead, that way they can't screw up on ya," then he'd laugh*. Ray Bradbury was very much alive at this time.
*Condolences to Neil Gaiman's fans.
Yes, and years later someone at the hospital related that she went up to one of the doctors with the material still in her hand and asked, "Will this help?" So it wasn't just a momentary reaction but she was in such shock she could hardly comprehend the situation, even though while he was still in the car she told someone he was dead.
No, and I'm not even surprised, but I am very sorry to hear it.
What are you talking about? The sets were great and I don't know where it was filmed but the setting really looked like the South American jungle and not like many movies which all look like California.
I can't find it on YouTube. The DVD is available on Amazon or you can watch a pretty good copy on ok.ru with Russian subtitles. The copy from 2022 seems to have the clearest picture and smallest subtitles.
I like "On the Banks of the Ohio" and "Birmingham Sunday" as sung by Joan Baez.
