I like Teagan's legs. lol. I'm very glad someone in the costume department put her in shorts. :) But yeah, this is a classic Who episode.
I know that this is sped up, but is it the version that was released for the 25th anniversary of the original 20th anniversary story being transmitted because I am sure that after the Fourth Doc got snatched by the Scoop, the image of Tom and Lalla was altered to be on a screen with a black surround but they used the one on the wall of the council chamber which is white made to look black but I think the BBC video version of 1990 has a different copy of that moment, I probably didn't explain that too well but I know what I mean
I actually prefer Torn Curtain to many other popular Hitchcock films such as Vertigo, Topaz, and Frenzy. The acting is great, especially the comic relief by wannabe defector Lila Kedrova.
Narration is too soft nd too fast.
A Pity that the Kamelion robot was not able to be used more.I expect they wanted a K9 type as it was do succesful.However the tragedic death of Mike power made that impossible.Not sure if you had menioned a very good reference book The Television Companion by David Howe and James Walker which gives extensive background informatiion on classic Who.
Turlough was originally in this one, but they wrote him out since they couldn't figure out his controls after his operator died. Sorry, I meant Khamelion, but Turlough might as well not have been in either for how much script he gets.
Condemned to constant change forever...
Always enjoy seeing the Brigadier As i may have said before UNIT related stories specially in the Pertwee era are alway my favourite.
I think that without Terrance Dicks Dr who might not of survived.Without the Target Novelizations the series would have been forgotten.His contribtion to the mythos is undeniable.
Think you need to set out what you gonna cover in the parts upfront, a preface, cause i saw the title - and there aint much mawdryn content ... nothing to bring me back ... only the part 1 hints at more, you could go into charcter development details, but just state it happened or didnt....
Love hearing your thoughts as usual. Hope the year ahead and all those thereafter treat you very well. Since I adore Ford as a filmmaker and especially your channel I can't wait to listen to your thoughts on the rest of his filmography. All the best. :)
Thank you sir, I wish all the same for yourself, these comments really warm my heart!!
Gonna be doing a chronological John Ford watch through myself too! Probably won't be able to keep up with this New Year's project but it will serve as a great one to follow along
Sorry, I’m having a little trouble catching everything you’re saying. Would you mind speaking up a bit?
Bravely tasteless, it's an oddly nauseating rollercoaster ride to be repulsed by one of the most brutal rape /murder scenes in all cinema, then treated to one of Hitch's flashy technical shots (a slow pan away from a closed door to murder seemed oddly coy coming after the aforementioned scene) and within the dull police procedurals throw in some weak humour about lousy english cooking (the era of Fanny Craddock) to cement the dismal atmosphere. I do not like it, but it's something.
A.I is working on the nerves
Not particuarly my favourite.Always thought the Mara was kind of Silly. The snake looked rather fake.Glad it only features in one other story.
Thanks for the Hitchcock series.Looking forward to your other videos,especially of course Dr Who.
Not really one of my favourites.Even though the actors are fine enough.Maybe because i think of Bond when i see Sean Connery.(who along with Roger Moore are my favourite Bonds).
Deliciously evil film and Hitchcock at his most explicit. I love it for how... undisguised it is. He's not trying to hide behind mechanics here, as he does in, say, Psycho (part of reason why I find it so weak); he's expressing himself through his fetishism of all this film's aspects. I do think this wouldn't be as interesting if it wasn't Hitchcock directing it, in part because it feels to be so directly about him. That is what gives its intrigue.
^This is an appraisal of Marnie which I can appreciate, thank you for sharing this!!
Such an underrated and misunderstood film. I love late-career Hitchcock, the directness of his lensing while not sacrificing his precise uber-control.
God this one is excellent. So ugly, so brutal, Hitchcock at his peak grotesque (that corpse scene!) - including the darkish humour of the policeman's dinners (a significant improvement on the terrible comedic dinner scene of '56 The Man Who Knew Too Much.) That this and De Palma's Sisters came out the same year... what a combo!
One of my favourite Hitchcocks, finally. A truly FUN picture to go out on. Love, love, LOVE that final shot - Hitchcock rounding out his career with a big wink, thanks for joining along, you've been tricked and it has been glorious. The 4K on this is also stellar.
Someone needs to tell the narrator that he doesn't need to speak in fast-forward shorthand.
A very good film.The trope of the innocent man on the run.A young pre Mission impossible Martin Landau.James Mason as the villian.One of the best.
This is the one. This is the uncontested Hitchcock masterpiece, always pretty much loved it and saw its brilliance since day 1. Opened my eyes to cinema as it did for so many people.
Great movie. This is art
There is nothing in cinema quite like the dreamlike atmosphere of the scene-setting in this film.
"Silly boy, there aren't any.."
Merry Christmas A!🌺❣
where can ı watch this movie?
Just one line in the Binary code ...
I watched this being filmed at Hound Tor on Dartmoor.
0:12 later used for *Prehistoric Women (1967).*
I expect you are taking a break for the holidays as i have not seen any new videos. If so have a nice Christmas and i await the continuation of the Peter Davison era.
Well.Finally reached Peter Davison. Not long to go before classic doctors are ended.Do you plan on covering New Who?
I do not plan on it, I don't enjoy New Who enough to want to cover all of it, and when I don't care for something then I feel I don't have much interesting to share about it anyway...
Did not think so.I dont mind some of New Who but do not think it as good as classic Who.The effects may be modern but some of the newer stories do not nterest me and I dont think Dr Who will continue for very much longer on TV.
This picture is basically if Hitchcock made an episode of Twin Peaks, again, inputting that particular humour of his. The divesting of his usual suspense mechanics and death-obsession is just so funny here, great stuff. The VistaVision, as per every one of Hitchcock's use of it, is also stunning.
One of Hitchcock's most underrated and misunderstood pics, definitely one of my favourites of his. I love it when he just relaxes his hypercontrol (though he still maintains great control), lets himself free of suspense, be cheeky with that irreverent British humour (the deferred romanticism of Grant's character, constantly rebuffing her advances until that gorgeous fireworks scene) and have fun. The 4K for this one is a total mess but its the best we've got.
When this film came out in Ireland, there was a lot of scandal because it showed -- in flashback, from a period before Monty Clift's character joined the priesthood -- a Catholic priest having a girlfriend, a very sexy Anne Baxter.
I watched the Alfred Hitchcock Presents adaptation of this and I didn't care for it either.
Looooved this one. Feels like the only one of his pictures to really have him interrogate his faith. It's there in all his other works of course, but seeing it all laid out bare here is fascinating and gets to a part of him that I find most compelling. I can definitely see the New Wave inspiration.
Extremely underrated hitchcock gem
Well Romana is now gone.Not long for Tom.(Hope this is not a spoiler).
I am not very familiar with Hitchcock before Psycho.However i have read about his pre 1960 films.I am glad that you are doing a chronological view of his films as i think he is one of the greatest film makers of the 20th Century.
This would probably be my favourite Hitch were it not for the rather pat resolution, but it sits just behind Rear window none the less.
It is NOT a pat resolution but an astonishing one. Young Charlie, in helping get her uncle out of town and knowing him to be a serial killer becomes an ACCESSORY to his future murders. Even as the train pulls out he even has his next 'merry widow' picked out on the train - "that nice Mrs. Potter'. Much darker than people realize.
@@DanielLiebert-i1p No I love that, it's the fact that despite her becoming complicit he then tries to kill her by throwing her from the train and passing it off as an accident that I found unconvincing. Certainly I get he might not be able to tolerate her knowing, But he would have been able to dispose of her in all sorts of other situations without arousing as much suspicion as one where he is identified as being in very close proximity. Maybe I'm being too nit picky, but doesn't quite add up.
@@schumanhuman In case you forgot he is a psychopathic killer and not apt to be logical about where and when rage comes out.
@@DanielLiebert-i1p Imo his modus operandi was cold and calculating and it didn't quite seem in character.
The opening to this one is so, if you'll forgive me, Lynchian. That weirdly unsettling visual of the smoke slowly just coming into the frame. Anyway, of his three major travelogue wrong man thrillers (39 Steps, this and NbNW) this is probably my favorite of them. It's such an oddball film, that whole middle act in particular. It's probably not good, but it's one of the most memorable parts of any of his works.
Truffaut and Hitch were mostly right tbh. The issue with the bus explosion is not that it happens as it is indeed pivotal to the plot , but the way it is portrayed. Tension is built with rousing music, ticking clocks and cute puppies in peril in more or less the same way a woman tied to the tracks by a moustache-twirling villain was in countless silent movies, as an entertainment, tension in search of release, only in this case there is no hero to free her from the oncoming train. Rather than a bold thwarting of convention, it just leaves the audience more shocked that the film went there rather than any shock or emotion regarding the deaths of innocent people (and puppy). Tonally, it just doesn't work.
One of my most favourite films even though i do like the color remake a bit more but still good Hitchcock.
Nearly at the end of Tom Baker era .Such a long time of him but the journey is enjoyable. Looking forward to the next Doctor.
this is my favorite of the Dollars trilogy so far, I got it on DVD this month at the flea market
Not really one of my favourites but glad to see Jacqueline Hill even though see is playing a different character and happy to see Bill Frazer also.
