Thanks for the heads up!

He's the funniest man who ever staggered in front of a movie camera. Stop by "Booze Movies" later in the week, because I have more W.C. Fields video news.

I also feel you undervalue Where the Buffalo Roam. Plot or the lack of it hardly seems the point. I'm with Hunter Thompson on this one. He also hated the film, especially the script, which he referred to as "dumb" and "low-rent." He did, however, think that Bill Murray did a good job. I do think th...

Just finished the last Dortmunder and am now rereading Nice, by Jen Sacks. It's summer. I like to keep it light. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only Dortmunder fan around here. I've read all but the last two adventures of Donald Westlake's funniest creation. By the way, for classic film fans, I'd hig...

All of those films are on my "to watch" list (and Vicious Circle is a particular fav...

The video in the clip you posted came from the The Ultimate Rat Pack Collection: Live & Swingin' . You may not have run across it in the DVD section of retail stores, because it comes in a CD case and includes both a live CD and the DVD. It can usually be found mixed in with other CDs in the music s...
