Sounded more like F to me, unless i’m thinking of that other movie.
Some time between the fifties and post-Covid is when I thought it came out?
Had that great line: “(something something something) in a (thingummy)”.
Wasn’t it directed by that one guy? You know, the one who made the other movie about those people?
It had that song in it, right? That song that had lyrics, a melody, and a chorus? It was a big hit, I think.
That one group of guys who couldn’t succeed - were they a ragtag group of misfits who learned to come together and work as a team? And wasn’t there a romantic subplot between the one guy who was in all those other movies and the girl who wasn’t Natalie Wood, but maybe blond?
The guy that usually plays villain but in this one he was a good guy. And his brother is in a different movie. And the plot twist was just like the ending of that last movie by this director. Til the surprise ending!
The surprise ending that felt contrived and superfluous?
Wasn’t that the same guy who was in the movie where somebody else died?
Yes, with the ending that felt contrived and superfluous, but I really liked how the movie didn’t feature a bunch of musical numbers. And the dialogue was pithy, if a bit pedestrian. I thought for sure that one guy’s movie career would be over after this film but he ended up in that other film afterwards.
I really like his comedy movies, although I think his dramatic work is equally good.
Remember that one exciting scene where that other guy was being held at gunpoint when he got caught with the lady that wasn’t Natalie Wood?
Yeah, but when he gave that one speech at that place . . . wow. That was acting!
Thing is, the guy who was speaking on behalf of those people kinda reminded me of Caesar Romero. But it definitely wasn’t him playing that part. Just something about his demeanor seemed similar. Anyway, at the end of the scene when whatshisface screams, you thought you knew what was going to happen next, but were surprised when it didn’t happen.
I was distracted all the way through because I couldn’t help but think they should have cast Orson Bean in that role. Just think about that scene halfway through where they’re arguing, and picture Bean as that one character.
See, I think Orson Bean would have been miscast for the role we’re talking about, but if it’s changes to the film you want to talk about, I would have featured a stoat instead of the dog in that one scene.
Sure. A stoat would have been bold, brilliant choice. Maybe a little too much so for that particular director, though.
Did it have that one guy who is a little too tall for his height but not too heavy for his weight?
If I remember correctly, Jack Elam was supposed to have been in it, but had to drop out due to illness.
No, that was Victor French.
No wait, it wasn’t him at all. It was that other guy. The one with weird eye. Omg… he’s always in those movies about those old fashioned premises. His acting is non-existent. He kinda just rolls into the scene and is present.
Oh, maybe I’m thinking of that other person who is in the all action/adventure movies. Sometimes he sports a long shaggy hair thing but recently it’s shorter and blonder.
Oh, god he had a man bun in an ad.
I wanna think it was a beer commercial.
That blond woman was scantily clad in it too.
Yes, yes. I think they were or are really married.
Or did they just play a married couple in a TV series. No. They have an actual child. Who is also an actor, in their own right.
It might’ve been her child from a previous relationship. I know because her mom made a guest appearance on a Disney sitcom she was on. She played twins or best friends who looked alike. I laughed because I could never tell them apart. Who was who? LOL. I just don’t know.
It didn’t last long. Maybe 3 seasons. Dumb premise. Well, I say dumb. It was just before it’s time. Wasn’t received well.
Yeah that’s the guy I’m thinking of.
Not musical at all. Was in a musical. But talk/sang only one number.
Couldn’t dance at all…just walked through it. Looking all clumsy. That might’ve been part of the plot. I don’t remember. LOL.
But…really he was every where, in everything at the time. Jeez, I got sick seeing him. That’s just me… Everyone else loved him and his schtick.
God I hated his wife. Always trying to be the ingenue, she was clearly outta of her league. After 4 kids you’re not able to play that, IMO.
And those kids. In the tabloids all the time. Into all kinda Hollywood kids trouble.
Yeah, I know exactly who you’re talking about. Yep. I do.
