Subject: Re: Soldiers Three Author: Susan [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 02:19:44 09/10/06 Sun In reply to: Susan 's message, "Soldiers Three" on 23:28:38 08/02/06 Wed Did you catch it on TCM on Saturday morning at 6 a.m.? (I put it on the calendar, but I didn't think to mention it here.) The one I taped on the 21st had at least one glitch in it that I caught--not a public service announcement, but the cable going out completely for a few seconds--so I re-recorded it yesterday. Hope I got it this time! Interesting about the horses. It never occurred to me that they would use the same horses over and over in different movies! I wonder if there's an animal-actor version of the IMDb! If not, there should be. I guess Ol' Pie would have a longer filmography than some humans. Glad to find another person who likes Soldiers Three. I really don't see what's so bad about it (unless you've read the Rudyard Kipling story and expected the movie to have anything to do with it!). So what do you think is the funniest scene? I especially love RN and Cyril Cusack in it, but Stewart Granger is pretty funny and makes some great facial expressions. (I love his line, "Bit of an engagement with a cactus, sir.") David Niven, with his usual persnicketiness, is funny as well. ("Easy on the oxen!") Heck, it's just an all-around good time, and to me it's more down to the acting than the script; although there are a lot of cute lines in it, it's really the delivery that makes them so funny. All those guys worked really well together. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Yes, except that it was on at 3 AM here. > So what do you think is the funniest scene? Hmmmm . . . That's not easy; there were many funny bits. Maybe: RN dancing a jig in the pub. The Rupee 'blister' on RN's foot The pheasant "Mooooo" RN in dress and fur The guys riding the steer David Niven and the steer. Just to mention a few. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
