Springfield! Springfield!


Big Lebowski, The (1998)


Do you find them much, these stolen cars?

Sometimes. Wouldn't hold out much hope for the tape deck, though. Or the Creedence.

Well, what about...

The briefcase?

[ Answering machine: ] Mr. Lebowski, I'd like to see you. Call when you get home, and I'll send a car for you. My name is Maude Lebowski. I'm the one who took your rug.

Guess we can close the file on that one.

MOVIE REVIEW

"Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" Sings Her Simple Song Again at the Paramount Theatre.

L.N.

Published: July 30, 1932

The Fox Film Company, apparently deciding to end those gangster pictures forever, turned loose its sweetness and light department among the files of another day. They found, naturally, the famous story by Kate Douglas Wiggin, "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm." Somewhere they located scenery enough like that of New England to be effective, and then they got some actors. The result of the combined efforts of all of them opened yesterday at the Paramount.

Every one now over the age of 23 has read "Rebecca"—although it may have been compulsory in some cases. The spirit of it is still in the picture. That means that the lovers of children, the admirers of miracle triumphing over atheism, might well enjoy the film. It teems with the spirit of Christmas carols, and flowers and love that is only young once. Hardened bachelors—keep away—and the followers of the melodrama and of the slightly decadent.

It is nothing against "Rebecca" to say that it deals in sentiment; for why shouldn't it? That was the way it made its initial bow, and that is the way it is now. There is too much of it, of course, for the year 1932, in the Summer that is a little mad anyway. The picture has some good characterizations, and some fine moments, but there is just a bit of absurd niceness about all the rest. The age of "Rebecca" has gone—alas, perhaps, but undoubtedly gone.

Marian Nixon has the part of the young girl from the farm, gone to live with her rich relatives. She suggests a big girl trying to act as a little girl and succeeding in going quite a bit under that, as quite a small girl indeed. Ralph Bellamy is Dr. Ladd. He plays the part as though he had just read "Arrowsmith" and presently would perform a major operation by candlelight in an ether-filled room. Mae Marsh and Louise Closser Hale, as the two aunts of Rebecca, are very fine, especially the latter.

The story is about the girl from Sunnybrook who visits her aunts, gets herself into various (sentimental and nice) disasters and ultimately falls in love with the doctor. In the course of her career she turns an agnostic into a potential saint, persuades the young doctor to save her aunt—helping actively in this—and brings Youthful Joy into a series of Dreary Hearts. She is, oh well—"Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm."

Flight Of The Intruder (1991)


[ Grafton: ] You wanted to see me, Guffy?

[ Guffy: ] Yeah, just a minute.

[ Grafton: ] Let me ask you something, Guffy. You suppose there's anything... anything valuable here? If they had something, it'd be up north, wouldn't it?

[ Guffy: ] That's right, Mr. Grafton. You see this? This is Haiphong Harbor. It's loaded with munitions. They take 'em out of here, and they stick 'em here, in Hanoi. But it's not for you, it's restricted. They didn't do it in '65, we haven't flown over it since '69, so don't even think about it. But I do have something here that's gonna brighten your day. You know that strike you flew in the south last week?

[ Grafton: ] Yeah, we refueled at Da Nang. That one?

[ Guffy: ] Yeah. Army bomb damage assessment says you killed 37. That's some body count, eh, buddy?
