Eddie talking about "Psycho" and he makes some good points.
Man, Eddie's comments were outstanding as I learned a couple of things about the filmmakers that I didn't know beforehand. The PQ on the Warner Archive Blu-ray was pretty damn good as usual. Again, I still have issues with this movie, but i won't get into them until others have posted their thoughts.I never was a big fan of "Beyond a Reasonable Doubt" (1956) starring Dana Andrews, Joan Fontaine and Sidney Blackmer. I think the premise of the movie never appeal to me, but this will give me a chance to finally watch my 2018 WA Blu-ray. Anyhow, it's the last American film directed by Fritz Lang.

Thea did it!Man, Eddie's comments were outstanding as I learned a couple of things about the filmmakers that I didn't know beforehand.

I didn't like the "twist" ending the first time I watched this movie many years ago. It still doesn't work for me because too much of the movie is just implausible to me.I always enjoy watching this movie, and I find the plot novel even if the resulting film is rather mundane and lacking style. Suspense could have been ratcheted up a few levels, too, though I think the twist is very good but, again, almost thrown away. Eddie always makes watching worthwhile.
He didn't mention next week's movie which kind of reminded me about next weekend.Yeah, I was kind of surprised Eddie didn't mention on air that they would be off the following weekend.
Criterion is releasing "The Lady Eve" on July 14th!All be watching Angel Face at lunch (if possible), but I agree completely about The Lady Eve. I love the film and would love to have a high def disc.
Yes, I got the e-mail and saw the announcement. Couldn't you hear me cheering?Criterion is releasing "The Lady Eve" on July 14th!
