Anyone else planning to watch Games on TCM tonight at 10PM? Stars Simone Signoret, James Caan, and Katharine Ross. Pretty good psychological thriller from 1967.

Followed by:

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

Why the hell was my post deleted from this thread? All I said was "sounds good! I've never heard of it!"

If you can't see what is offensive about that, then there's something seriously wrong with you.

I'm a big fan of both movies--I love the weird, campy excess of Curtis Harrington's movies. There's a really great, very short documentary on his films on youtube, including little bits of his homoerotic early short films, his work with Kenneth Anger (before Anger "wrote" Hollywood Babylon), and all the aging grande dames he worked with (Shelley Winters, Gloria Swanson, Piper Laurie). I know many now see him as an early queer filmaker because ofthe sensibility he brought to his films.

That Aunt Alice poster is kind of crazy in the fact that it's like an entire movie spoiler.

He means Helen.
