Hey Flora. Good information on Eli Wallach and the movies you have seen. Tally counts…24 for me, 18 for Steve and 16 for you. Surprised you have not seen more. I have seen all of your favorites…I like all of them except for The Misfits. I actually have How To Steal A Million in my DVD que….as I want to listen to the DVD commentary on that one. No Tough Guys on your watched list? Lancaster, Douglas and Wallach. A fun movie but not a good movie. Speaking of Douglas…I finally watched and enjoyed Champion last night. Good stuff as always.
You’ve been busy with the new pages Bruce, I can’t keep up! 🙂
Wallach was superb as a Mexican bandit in two of my all time favorite westerns.
I’ve seen 18 of the 52 films on the chart. Favorites are – The Magnificent Seven, The Good the Bad and the Ugly, How the West Was Won, Tough Guys, The Deep & The Sentinel.
Great to see Sergio Leone’s masterpiece topping the charts.
I haven’t seen Baby Doll, it’s been on my ‘to watch’ list for years. It rarely turns up on TV.
Nice work Bruce. Vote Up.
Hey Steve…..we have stepped up our new material…..we had a person review on website….and it got marks….just not big enough to compete with other websites….so getting new material posted faster is one of our goals. Three of the 4 dropped today, had over 35 movies completely done…and were just sitting in the database…figured we would release the Kraken.
Tally counts…24 for me, 18 for you and 16 for Flora. Seen all of your favorites…with The Good, The Bad and The Ugly being one of my all-time favorite roles. As time has passed, I have enjoyed his performance more and more…heck at this point….he seems more the hero than Clint.
As for Baby Doll….it was ok….but not a movie I will re-visit anytime soon….so I do not think you are missing too much. Good stuff as always.
I am very fond of Clint Eastwood in his detective and human-interest films but have never been a fan of his two mega-hit Clyde movies or his westerns; and The Good the Bad and The Ugly is among his cowboy films that I have never been interested in watching.
I most liked Eli as the psychopathic hit-man in the crime film-noir 1958’s The Lineup; in which he is the top billed lead; and which IMDB credits with a fine 73% rating. I also liked Eli in the “two sevens” The Magnificent 7 and Edward G Robinson’s 7 Thieves.
A great admirer of and friendly with Brando Eli and the latter played baseball together at a picnic for The Actor’s Studio in Connecticut in 1953 [photos on internet]
Hey Bob….Surprised The Good, The Bad and The Ugly never interested…that is one of my all-time favorite movies. Would it interest you more if you bought into the Danny Peary breakdown of Sergio Leone movies. There are normally 3 main characters in each of movies….all three descendants of gods….normally the hero and villain are 100% blood descendants of gods…while the 3rd character, like Eli’s The Ugly or Jason Robards’s character in Once Upon A Time In The West, have one god parent and one human parent. A mere mortal can not kill them….only other descendants of gods can.
As for The Lineup…I could not find box office information on that one. Eli and Marlon playing baseball….good trivia nugget. Good stuff as always.
Excellent page.
Mike
