What more can i say, the person before me said it all.True,very few actors
can say so much with just the video part showing and no sound at all,
except of course this magnificent music,very appropriate indeed for an
actress of this magnitude.Brilliant ! ! !
Dead Ringer with Bette Davis, co starring Bette Davis! Without the original
sound, set to this beautiful music and edited so superbly, it has become a
testimony to Bettes great ability to show anything with her face...Great
find, thank you!
¡Hermoso tributo y hermosa Bette! Gracias por incluir escenas de dos de mis
películas favoritas: "June Bride" y "Beyond the Forest", usualmente no muy
tenidas en cuenta dentro de su magnífica e incomparable filmografía.
@sebasj1978 Hola! A mi tambien me parecen geniales las peliculas, la única
pega que le pondria seria el final de novia de junio... XD por lo demás

Siempre es un placer recrearse con imágenes de esta maravillosa, genial
actriz que fue y seguirá siendo porque sus películas no morirán. Gracias
Amiga por seguir homenajeándola. Un abrazo.

Eleanor Parker,además de bella y simpática, fue una actriz muy especial, que supo imprimir un sello de dignidad a cada uno de los papeles que interpretó.
THE PETRIFIED FOREST (Bogart & Henry Fonda - live TV version 1955)
Humphrey Bogart's only dramatic television performance. Broadcast live on PRODUCER'S SHOWCASE on May 30, 1955. Once again Bogart plays Duke ...
It's unfortunate that programs like Playhouse 90 no longer exist that could
bring to TV live plays but there are no longer writers like Tennesse
Williama, Paddy Cheyefsky, or Rod Serling. How is it that television in
it's most primitive condition was more daring and socially conscious and it
only got progressively dumber over the subsequent decades. Hopefully these
programs are in some sort of safe storage vault. To lose these would be a
crime but I am sure many were thoughtlessly erased to reuse the tape. These
are invaluable filmed time capsules, recordings of another era that should
never be allowed to just degrade and crumble away like a great portion of
the films of the silent era.
I love the Bette Davis and Leslie Howard version of this play. Davis is
radiantly beautiful and Howard has a sad, tragic quality to his character.
Even though it looks like a filmed a play it sort of enhances the
atmosphere, making to distinctly unreal and almost dreamlike. The problem
with modern movies is that they are obsessed with "reality". It's
effectively killed movies altogether.
Thank you for posting this. I would've never dreamed I'd get to see it.
Petrified Forest is in my top ten favorites. I'm kind of curious about the
dialogue changes. Especially the annoying Communism stuff. If it wasn't for
that I'd guess it was the original play and the film, an adaptation. But
surely that can't be the case. I just became aware of this version fairly
recently. Thank you times a thousand!!!!!
A rare TV performance by Humphrey Bogart playing the role he made famous in
the early 1930's in the movie of the same name which also starred Leslie
Howard and Bette Davis. This TV performance would be one of Bogart's last.
In early 1956 he was diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus and was
operated on in February of that year. He never did another film, dying in
January, 1957.
Black-and-white kinescope film of a color broadcast. That accounts for the
murkiness. They could never duplicate the comparative sharpness of a good
monochrome kinnie with color. Videotape was one year away (1956); color
videotape two more after that. (1958).
