  • Sidney Johnson on 2015 Movies Ranked Best To WorstJasmine HK film with Low average reviewer ratings but a really high number of Film festival wins and nominations. Not sure what to make of that divergence but thought I would mention it given the really large number of film festival reactions. I suppose one possibility is that the competition at all these film festivals at that particular time wasn't very challenging. Either that or we should ignore low vote counts on IMDB as very indicative. That said i tend to not trust high scores on low counts. Low scores seems like one should trust them more but perhaps it...

  • "HANDY MAN" on 1967 Top Box Office MoviesI was wondering if the wording beneath the montage of 4 photographs on this page is mixing up Harrison Ford’s Star Wars character with Paul Newman’s Cool Han [d] Luke! The spread of the photos themselves is magnificent though. I especially like the one of Lee Marvin, nostalgically showcased by the background vista of middle- sixties America. And who could resist any still of the notorious Mrs Robinson! The Marvin shot is possibly LA. I think the locations for the movie were mostly from Santa Monica Beach to 2nd Street Santa Monica. Though they started off in Frisco’s Alcatraz Island...
  • ANON- Wrong crediting? on Top Grossing Movies Of 1952“The Lion and the Horse” 1952 western – Entry no 123 in main chart I cannot recall George Gabby Hayes being in this movie.

  • Mike HoF 2020 on Alan Ladd MoviesHi Mr. Cogerson, The multiplier for box office rentals only is about 3.4 for most, This varies when a movie post less box office data in less cities. This causes the multiplier for the less to increase. The number of cities posting this data can be as low as 1 out of 23 or as high as 23 out of 23. The current number of cities currently I use is 23. I am currently doing the 1940s. I have completed the 1950s and 160s. thx for your cooperation

Her career at the top was sadly brief; but she was in many movies outside her peak years that were reasonably-popular, but with some of which not everybody would immediately associate her – Martin and Lewis’ 1953 Scared Stiff for example (I myself had forgotten she was in that one, Lizabeth Scott and Carmen Miranda being the top-billed females)!

  • Lyle on Site IndexHello Bruce. I was wondering if you could do a page or book on the actual theatrical film rentals if that were possible? There are many films I don't have the actual rental figures. For instance I've always wanted to know the rental figures for such as The Trouble with Harry (1955), Major Dundee (1965) and Viva Max (1969), to name just a few. By the way I recently read an article titled "Some Revisions" from Variety that states the actual domestic rentals for The Comancheros (1961) were $3,500,000 which would make it's actually box office gross in the range...

  • Frank Berumen on 2023 Movies – Includes All Oscar WinsLilly Gladstone was robbed ! She was only the second indigenous woman to be nominated for Best Actress in more than one-hundred years. Contrary to the media, the first was Mexican indigenous actress Yalitza Aparicio for Roma in 2018. Some people still believe that America is one country instead of a continent. Indigenous representation in film and television continues to be miniscule. Killers of the Yellow Moon is the first film since Dances with Wolves in 1990 to bring significant focus on the indigenous experience. In addition, Latinos, who make up more than 20% of the nation's population is almost...

At the American Film Institute it says that Variety reported in January 1966 The domestic rentals were $1,600,000 and international rentals were nearly $3,500,000.

  1. I was in Hilton Head last month and Savannah also. I did not know Forrest Gump’s bench was there. My wife had to go to Savanah to eat at Paula Dean’s restaurant and I got a T-shirt for the Savanah Bananas college baseball team but I digress from the subject.

    Bessie Love who she appeared with made her first film in 1915. She starred in the best picture of 1929 The Broadway Melody.

    I’ve recounted the first nude scene I saw was in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie which was also the first Maggie Smith film I saw.

  2. HI The BIG TWO

    Have tried several times to post a response to Steve’s new Jodie Foster video but I don’t know if (1) Bruce’s probably all-time greatest fans The Spammers are at work again or (2) another of my jokes has backfired and the post is being rejected because some touchy guy in England or Shangri- La has taken offence at some innocent quip of mine.

    Anyway I have kept a copy of the post until hopefully the coast is clear to send it. Of course as you both know ANY post of mine is worth making millions of copies of and on the Top UMI Contributors table I should maybe get credit for all 5 times I have tried to submit the Foster post

    1. Somehow that comment ended up in the Spam folder…I have no idea why. A quick check does not see any other “non-spam” comments there….so I have no idea why it pulled your comment there. But it is now approved…sorry about that.

  3. Sorry I have not been able to comment back on all the comments. My regular school job ended last Thursday….at least for 11 weeks…but started a summer job today…..that one is actually longer hours. Thus finding the one to two hours a day to do comments has taken a backseat to work. It is in the same club as watching movies, promoting the new pages and hanging out with kids. Just not enough hours in the day. Already only sleep about 4 hours a day. But I will make a better effort in the future. Starting with Agnes Moorehead.

    1. Only 4 hours a day? Ouch. I know how that is, I am a fellow insomniac myself. Most things do take a backseat to work. Take care of yourself. I understand you can’t always answer.

      1. Normally the summer is a time to rest…but this year WoC and I have a change to invest in something that will really benefit us in the long run…so we are doing extra jobs this summer. Just got home from work….and after only a few comments starting to get slllleeeeepppppyyyyy already. Feel like I am burning the candles at both ends and in the middle…..lol.

  4. HI STEVE I tend to keep at least for a while lists of most posts that I submit to this site and at times I even retain copies of posts that I send but which receive no response. I realise that whilst a lot of my comments might hold little attraction for many viewers [who naturally have their own priorities/interests] there should be on the law of averages one would think at least a some that draw attention and indeed a reasonable number do.

    Of course my avid admirers like you may well conclude that I have said EVERYTHING on a subject that needs to be said and therefore requires no rejoinder!! Also a nil response to a post does not necessarily indicate no interest in it as other viewers could well like it but not have either the time and/or the inclination to reply to it, which is their entitlement.

    Also I have to concede that whilst I have a lot more time on my hands than probably many other viewers I TOO still cannot always on occasions find the time to respond to as many posts as I would like.

    However as I usually expend a lot of time researching material for, and composing, my posts I keep the records that I have mentioned above so that if a pattern of nil responses emerges to subjects that I raise I can consider refraining from future comments on those issues. For example there seems to be a pattern in the normal nil responses to comments on birthday tributes so perhaps no response is called for to those tributes – see for instance my Sept 5 2017 post on Michael Keaton’s page

    I should add that my records indicate that NEVER have you failed to respond to one of my many initial posts about your videos and often I get “bonus” supplementary responses from you as well- your extra comment about Chuck a short time ago are but one example [though I don’t think Ladd would have had much trouble bossing Arnie about and giving him a good hiding if he didn’t do what he was told!]. . Given how busy I know you are your frequency of response constitutes an amazing record and your courtesy and diligence are appreciated.

    Therefore in the hope of assisting you to economize on your time I propose to from time to time convey lists of my posts which have received a nil response so that you will be able to consider whether it is worth expending your own efforts on the subjects concerned and for openers a list of some of the “neglected” posts from me in recent weeks is in a separate submission today.

    1. EXAMPLES OF RECENT BOB ROY POSTS RECEIVING A NIL RESPONSE

      1 5 JUNE – Drawing attention on Fred MacMurray’s page to possible minute “overkill”. Admittedly the, as I personally perceived it, “flaw” is inconsequential and likely to irritate only pedantic “purist” movie buffs like me but many weeks before that, again trying to be helpful, I drew attention to the fact that Gabby Hayes was listed as the star of Jump into Hell in the 1955 annual review whereas to the best of my knowledge Gabby was not in that flick and the lead actor was a then Warner Bros “pretty boy” the late Jacques Sernas of the 1956 Helen of Troy mayfly fame. Hayes remains listed as the star.

      2 6 June. An appreciation by me of the career of Harvey Keitel on his page.

      3 8 June. Comments on the 1970 annual review

      4 13 Jun Comments on the 1971 annual review.

      [I place great value in the reviews generally so have hitherto usually felt inclined to comment.]

      5 14 June. In a post welcoming additions to the Brando page I also drew attention to the duplicate listing of a movie. Again, although I would dearly love for Mr Brando to retain the extra $140 million that the duplication brings him I was trying to be of assistance in pointing out the error as I know what an impossible task it is for the authors to avoid or immediately spot every error among such a massive and amazing wealth of detail as that which is always meticulously provided on this site.

      Concluding on a more positive note though I thought that a nice touch was the special publication today of the run of contributors’ Father’s Day posts.

      1. Bob-

        Even though I don’t always respond to your posts, I always read them. Many of your posts are headed specifically “Bob to Steve” and I enjoy reading your conversations about the latest Steve video identity.

        I know that it is frustrating when your post is not answered. I find that is more likely to happen to me when the page is not a new UMR subject. Therefore, I tend to post only on new pages. However, I do remember that when Agnes Moorhead – a favourite of mine – got a new page, I answered promptly as I usually do, and ultimately nobody’s were answered on that one.

        1. HI FLORA Thanks for your response and it’s good to know you’re reading my posts because I know you have a lot of irons in the fire.

          Indeed it always cheers me immensely when I see one of YOUR posts flagged up and our mutual respect of each other’s offerings reminds me of an old pop song by songstress Teresa Brewer

          We belong to a mutual
          Admiration society,
          My [Flora] and me
          We belong to a mutual
          Admiration society

          I think she’s endearing
          And she’s smart
          She thinks that
          I play my part
          In appreciating art.

          The only quarrelling
          That we do is
          Just who admires
          Who more than who

          So it is that we
          My [Flora] and me
          We belong to a mutual
          Admiration Society.

        2. Hi Flora, I saw your post and checked out Agnes Moorehead page, you’re right, no response from the chief on our comments. Ironically the only person he replied to on that page has been dead for years. [Bob winces] 🙂

    2. Bob, I know how you feel concerning comments that don’t get a response from anyone, it happens to me from time to time and even quite recently too I’ve had maybe three comments to new UMR topics left unread.

      There’s no law saying that all comments should get a response but it does dampen enthusiasm next time you’re about to write something and you’re wondering if it’s worth the bother.

      It’s worse when the only comment that hasn’t had a reply on a new UMR page is your own, that’s happened to me quite a few times, my comment is surrounded by other people’s comments but mine is the only one that didn’t get a reply. [sniff] 😉

      Bob, I’m pretty sure your posts get read even when they don’t get a response. Sometimes your readers feel there’s nothing more to add, and maybe a smiley would suffice.

      1. HI STEVE

        Thanks for the comforting words . Suddenly the wilderness doesn’t seem so empty anymore!

        Perhaps when we feel that our posts are being unduly neglected you and I should deploy on the site the kind of plea that British Post Office once regularly put out to the general public in an effort to drum up business “Someone, somewhere is waiting for a letter from you.”

        I see that in fact the Work Horse has now removed the Brando duplication of One Eyed Jacks from Marlon’s page. [Damn you and your protests about aliases/nicknames Steve– I miss saying Mr Mumbles!]. So maybe my post of 14 June wasn’t wasted after all
        .
        However there’s a sting in the tail. I said that the duplication was giving Brando an extra $140 million whereas the figure was nearer $150 million , which means Marlon has now lost the higher rather than the lower figure with the duplication removal. So instead of for once playing the Good Guy why couldn’t I have just kept my big mouth shut. That Work Horse guy always seems to have the last laugh over me.

        Anyway look forward to your next video. They always cheer me up even when all on this site have deserted me! “Everyone loved him! Everyone disappeared!” [Jerry Maguire]

  5. HI GUYS!
    Steve has expressed concern from time to time that the aliases that I have occasionally used could confuse some folks who try to follow my posts. I think I noticed yesterday that somebody was using aliases that might be deemed a bit risqué for this site.

    So let me assure you that I am not the person(s) concerned. It is true that despite advancing years I might still retain a certain appeal. I mean look at the young co-stars who still seem to admire Fading Ford, Ancient Arnie and Wilting Willis in their movies so as legendary Brit actor/vaudeville entertainer the Great George Formby used to sing as he strummed his ukulele

    “If women like that like men like that,
    Why can’t women like me?”

    However when using aliases on occasions when I wish to attract the attention of either/both of you there would be no fun in it if neither of you DID KNOW it was I who was behind the alias and it is always only on such occasions that I do use an alias. I mean it would be a very boring week for me if The Work Horse for example was completely unaware that YOURS TRULY was the one who was trying to wind him up.

    Also it’s not my style to do genuine “incognito” so I would not wish to adopt a Joel and Hyde persona on this site and I certainly hope that none of the aliases that I have used have been offensive to anyone.

    1. Hey Bob…..you know at first I thought those 3 spam comments had to be you….lol. It was the first spam to work it’s way passed on security guards in awhile…..hopefully this was not the scout team for more spam coming. Thanks for the disclaimer.

      1. HI BRUCE
        Thanks for the explanation. It never actually occurred to me that the “Alias” was a spam and I was concerned you might think it was I who was spoofing around as usual.

        I know that it was the kind of terminology that you frown upon on your site so It did occur to me that you might remove it so I wasn’t surprised when I checked this morning and saw it gone.

        Pity Steve missed the 3 spams. That’ll teach him not to check this site as often as I do!

    2. Bob, noooo! I missed the risque aliases! [weeps] Bruce must have removed them.

      I think if you stick to Bob Roy everyone will know it’s you. Bob Cox uses both his names so there’s no confusion there.

      ‘In the Shadows’ remains a mystery poster, could it be John? Or a reincarnated Joel?
