And giving you a meme from a Coen Bros. movie is adding even more insult to injury Mr. Dirty....

Oh, wow, I did not know that. So typical.

To paraphrase "Alice in Wonderland", typicaler and typicaler...

Or curiouser and curiouser....

I think that is part of the reason why I started this thread, because I do have an inkling curiosity for 30's cinema, since so many have revered it. I just don't know if I can bring myself to waste time within it, as there are so many other films I haven't seen from later eras that look more appealing.

I have seen Mutiny On The Bounty as well, but I didn't really like it in comparison to the Brando and Howard 60's version which often gets maligned in comparison for some reason. I don't see anything wrong with this spectacle and its glorious setting and cinematography. Brando was always appealing for me to watch in his heyday too and I have always liked Trevor Howard. I really like Lean's Brief Encounter - 45' with Celia Johnson.

The 30's churned out films like no tomorrow, it is good to have other posters recommendations too.
