Here you go Ronald, Tony's piece from June 20th last year (2016) about the yet to be released documentary.
Here is the 8 minute Trailer for the "upcoming" BOWERY RHAPSODY: THE RISE AND REDEMPTION OF HOLLYWOOD'S ORIGINAL 'BRAT PACK', as posted on YouTube, July 2, 2014 (From Nearly 2 years ago -...
Yes Ronald that WAS a great one. One of us up in here put that clip on last year and we all cracked up yet again over it. It's good in soooo many ways.
So what do you think's going on with the documentary, Ronald?
Hey Tony, the three up on Apple TV so far - Bowery Bombshell, The Bowery Boys Meet the Monsters and Bowery to Bagdad are all in HD format and not for digital sale, just rental.:blink:
Hey gang, just a quick heads up. Just saw a few Bowery Boys films up on Apple TV's Movies, rentable for a whopping $3.99 fish each. They're all from the 48 films, no DNK, LTG or EEK, no 1937 Dead End. That documentary's gonna generate some interviews and renewed interest, to what degree remains...
Well Mr Handley, you got trough all 48 o' dese films, huh? Dat's good, you've reached da pineapple o' your career. Congrats!
Glad you put Meet the Monsters at #1, it really IS that good.
Your list, though, really does look like that of a diehard Stooges fan. Your taste seems to be more...
Well waddaya know. FINALLY!! And the current level of social media can really give this thing a huge boost into the mainstream where it should be.
I hope it goes in depth into the these points:
1) Why New York City mattered so much then and how that relates to why it matters now.
2) Why...
Well Joe that was mighty unanimous of yous! I finally got to see Little Tough Guys in Society.
Sheesh though. What a mess just to satisfy a trend, huh. But a very interesting look at attitudes toward and treatment of women a year before war breaks out in Europe, and a year before the New York...
The Mayor of Hell. Now that is one good movie. Did you know even way up in Canada parts of that film scared the initial screeners so much they had to cut loads of scenes out before letting it run in theaters? Some states complained and cut things out too. Most complained about the title and...
'It's usually Blackbeard that does the collecting.'
My fav Clements line, delivered like a pro in that funny British accent!
This is the only film where I didn't miss Leo at all. Huntzie carried it very well and Stanley and the Boys and the leading lady supported him superbly.
I really like...
They do less and less these days Joe, but back in those days EVERYTHING fell under fair use unless you could afford a mouthpiece who said / worked it otherwise.
Yeah Joe can't you just see her almost hang up the phone, then take a swing at him, then he goes 'Blocked it!' but then she takes her...
Now that Joe has started from the first film, Dead End, I'd like to take this opportunity to encourage people to contact producers to continue revivals of Sidney Kingsley's original play.
There have been three revivals so far, the first in 1978 and the second in 1997 included Kingsley himself...
Man were you ever lucky to see that pilot Joe. I'm sure you enjoyed it because it had some good unfiltered references.
I don't believe Ray was as 'poor' as you say Joe. He knew better, he was in the industry smack in the middle of a rip-off free-for-all with little or no legal protection for...
It would've been hard to put the Bowery Boys into one of those Hanna Barbera-ized cartoons, even if permissions were more forthcoming, because the content would've had to be so sanitized / watered down / filtered / censored as to take the whole point out if it in my opinion. The others were...
