FROM HERE : But the best part of the film isn't the sweeping battles, the mournful soldiers, or the explosive shoot-outs; it's the hateful alliance between Blondie (Clint Eastwood) and Tuco (Eli Wallach). I heard once that Eastwood and Wallace shared a single room and a single bed that they used in shifts in order to maintain their thorny attitude toward each other. I'm not sure if it's true, ...

The List (Day 5)

The List (Day Five) I got another. Yeah? Brittany Murphy. Heart attack. ... Really? Totally. Update the List. This isn't like that Elli Wallach thing, is it? Look, how many times do I have to say this, I thought I saw a notification of his death. Swear to god. I just--just hold for a sec while I check this out. Sure. ... ... ... How's work? Ah, ...

"Stuff his howling mouth with the nipples of oblivion!": a review of Night and the City.

... market paperback edition, from April 1959 . I did see the 1992 U.S. remake of Night and the City , directed by Irwin Winkler and starring Robert DeNiro, Jessica Lange, Alan King, Jack Warden and Eli Wallach; though I saw it in a first-run theatre, I remember demmed little of it, except that the only thing that came close to snapping me out my torpor as I watched it was the on-screen antics...

Genreusko(nno)llisuudesta

... ihmisten keskellä jotka olivat kaikki mustissa ja puhuivat murahdellen tai vain erittäin epäselvästi. Isoja rasvaisia miehiä. Sitten keikka alkoi ja hetken screeneillä pyöri elokuvaa ja Eli Wallach juoksenteli etsimässä tuntematonta hautaa. Miehet mustissaan hurrassivat heiluttivat hevilettejään. Musiikki soi. Se soi kolme tuntia ja tottakai pidin, olihan se Metallica. Tiedättehän, se bändi ...

sign up and fall in, then march out to WARRRRRGH HAS CHANGED >:(

... find info on the setting, and found this wonderful bit: Re-recording English dialogue for the new footage was the biggest "if" in John Kirk's restoration project, and thankfully both Eli Wallach and Clint Eastwood were interested and could make themselves available to dub the new lines... The acting and voice quality is a reasonable match, although both stars' voices have changed over the years...

Soot and Spit: A Rambling Rumination on the James Castle Exhibit

...) by outside opinion. What's the Charles Mingus quote I'm searching for? : "Do you understand that poem, Dr. Wallach?" "Well, Charles, it certainly is a very personal expression." I assume Dr. Wallach avoided commentary since he was Chuck Mingus' therapist. He didn't want to put thoughts into Mingus' head, or ...

I know you've all been dying to know what we think..

...been the best, and really got to me. BUT, my favorite, by far, and I totally recognized both actors despited the fact that they looked even older than I thought they should, was the segment with Eli Wallach and Cloris Leachman. They were wonderful, perfect and oh so very real. I laughed more for their part than I did for the rest of the movie combined, and they were the only scene that made me cry...
