you might debate me here but
“144 Ana-ta-han (1953)”
should be
“144 Anatahan (1953)”
or
“144 The Saga of Anatahan (1953)”
Hey Sidney J. Fixed and a thank you. I went with just Anatahan versus The Saga of Anatahan.
“140 Scandal at Sourie (1953)”
should be:
“140 Scandal at Scourie (1953)”
Hey Sidney J. Fixed and a thank you.
“119 A Blueprint For A Murder (1953)”
should be
“119 A Blueprint For Murder (1953)”
Hey Sidney J. Fixed and a thank you.
The Long, Long Trailer is listed in the worldwide grosses, but it came out in 1954, and sure enough the domestic numbers are on that page.
Hey Bobby…not sure how I did that….but the error has been fixed. Thanks for the catch….fixed on both pages.
Favorite films of 1953: From Here to Eternity, Pickup at South Street, Roman Holiday, Shane and best of all: Stalag 17. I heard that William Holden believed Burt Lancaster was more deserving of the Oscar than he for his performance in From Here to Eternity. As a Lancaster fan, I can honestly say Holden deserved it.
