All Hail Gladiator, Tim Wright!
Only at the #TCMFF: In the parking lot of the iconic Toluca Lake Bob's Big Boy, classic film afficionado & #VictorMature fan, Tim Wright, presented me with the actual helmet my Dad wore when he played Demetrius in #DemetriusandtheGladiators 1954!
Basada en la novela de Steve Fisher, "I Wake Up Screaming" (H. Bruce Humberstone, 1941) es un sólido y envolvente clásico del cine negro, donde Victor Mature destaca en uno de los papeles que lo consolidaron como actor dram��tico.
La historia combina crimen, sospechas y giros tensos.
Laird Cregar brilla como el inquietante detective que lleva la intriga a otro nivel, mientras Betty Grable sorprende en un rol más serio del habitual.
Impecable por su ritmo, su tensión y su elegante oscuridad.
Más que bien 👍 !
@HGACinema Excellent movie.
Two talented actresses in Grable & Landis, a young & intense Victor Mature and a heavyweight policeman of dubious intentions player by Laird Cregar.
A real goodie.
Oh non Philippe!! Comment je vais faire? C’est impossible.
Bon! On va commencer par le maître. Un chef d’oeuvre complet du début à la fin et Victor Mature est tout simplement fantastique. C’est dire.
Oui le cinéma est un art.
Cecil B. DeMille’s Dec. 1949’s “Samson and Delilah,” starring Victor Mature and Hedy Lamarr, was the box office #1 hit of the year, and inspired a slew of ancient-setting Hollywood movies in the 1950s and beyond.
