    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about…™ Shenandoah – in Blu-ray

Course I also read he couldn't stand Spencer Tracy,(because of Spence's association with Kate Hepburn,) and of course Brennan only worked once with Ford, also...

    Yeah, it always amazed me that he didn't care for Donna Reed, and felt they had no chemistry together. I think that was a miss for Mr Stewart. Of course I grew up with Donna Reed. She was almost like a second Mom. (caught her show in reruns every afternoon after school)

    Love all the Hawks appearances of "old Groot". But my favorite Brennan performances are the few times he played a heavy. Like in MY DARLING CLEMENTINE. Where all those Brennan isms come to represent something much darker. And Ford was great in giving those tight close ups on Walter's face...

    Sorry about that Mr. Crawford, didn't think about that spoiler thing. Is there a place to learn how to edit in that spoiler marker so I can use it in future posts? I intended originally to just be a "lurker" to learn about recent physical media releases. But I keep coming back. I'm not much...

    boy does McClure do a good job of just listening so true. I'm sure old Andy Jimmy and McClure felt damn good about that day of shooting. Way back fin the day when movie acting was all about listening, processing and responding to other human beings about human truths.

    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about…™ Shenandoah – in Blu-ray

    The two scenes that have always stayed in my memory from this film,much of the film is truly mediocre to be sure, but I feel the film is worth keeping mainly for two scenes, both Stewart scenes, and Stewart at his best. The “do you like her?" scene. When Doug McClure is asking for Stewart’s...
