Requests

requests1

Thankfully we get lots of requests for new pages.  Well…the wife recently informed me that my way of collecting my requests was pretty weak.  She seems to think that writing down requests on whatever piece of paper or napkin or bill that is currently on my desk is not the way to do it.  So….since she is way smarter than me….I have decided to create a page just for requests.  Plus it should give a good idea of what pages are coming down the pike.

My logic in picking which page to do next….I lean heavily towards the subject that has the most requests.

  • Roger Corman – request by Dan
  • Peter Cushing – request made by SteveLensman, Dan & Brando 90
  • Disney Live Action 1967-1980 – request by Mimic
  • Foreign Movies requested by Laurent
  • Samuel Goldwyn – request by Dan
  • Sam Katzman – request by Dan
  • Fritz Lang – request by Lupino, Just Me
  • Bruce Lee – request by Brando 90
  • Harold Lloyd – request by Søren, Me
  • Henry Mancini – request by Flora
  • Patricia Medina – request by Dan
  • Mirisch Brothers – request by Dan
  • Edward Small – request by Dan
  • Rudolph Valentino – request by Laurent

Completed requests:

Many more to come…have to find all of my old napkins and transfer the requests to this page.

  1. I strongly suggest a Fredrich March bio… 2-time Oscar winner with stellar acting cred. He did The Desperate Hours with Bogie, Seven Days in May with Douglas-Lancaster, Inherit the Wind with Spencer Tracy and Kazan’s masterwork Man on a Tightrope. Won his 1st Academy Award for a horror flick, his 2nd as part of an ensemble cast, not to mention the first and BEST screen version of A Star is Born.

    Also: Joseph Cotten. He’s only in three of the top films ever made… Citizen Kane, The Magnificent Amberson’s and The Third Man.

    1. Hey Mike….you have a pretty nice collection of Keaton box office grosses. I will have to how many I can add to our Keaton table. Good comment.

  3. Hi! I’m writing a paper on the early use of dinosaurs in film, and I have been trying to hunt down the box office gross for Buster Keaton’s Three Ages but in 1923 dollars.

    Do you have any idea where I can pull that information?

    Thanks!

  4. Hi Mr. Cogerson,

    Hope your having a nice summer ?
    I am doing fine.
    My request is for an old comedy team of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis?
    They did 17 movies together from 1949 to 1956.

    Thx
    Mike HoF

    1. Hey MikeHoF 2020….I can do that….currently working on a Coleen Moore page (using some of your research)…after that one is done…I can knock your request out. I should have put that in my third book. Good suggestion…hope all is going well.
