The Black Bird (1975)

 

George Segal as Sam Spade Jr. Maltese Falcon parody. Long unavailable. Found on Youtube. Lionel Stander. I always like the hard-boiled parodies and detective comedies.

The Maltese Falcon (1941)

 

Directed by John Huston. Humphrey Bogart. Dashiell Hammett book. I finally read the book first time several years ago. A sequel of sorts came on the radio, Suspense, 1948, The Khandi Tooth Caper. It is the great detective movie. I have the DVD but am taking the opportunity to watch it in HD.

RIP Charles Grodin

My mother’s favorite comedy was Midnight Run but she didn’t like all the cursing & for years searched in vain for a copy of the movie that had the curses removed & now I hope Charles Grodin is with her in heaven explaining to her that they didn’t sell those

Charles Grodin, RIP

 

One of the best. One of my favorites. He made everything he was in better. I would strongly recommend The Heartbreak Kid if you haven't seen that one. Brutally funny. He was 86.

Kurt Russell on Harry O

 

Harry O recently showed up on Youtube. Good detective show. David Janssen. Not a rare show on the internet, because I watched three episodes a couple of summers ago, and one of them the Kurt Russell ep. Some shows come and go a lot over the years. Playing that one now on Youtube. Same channel has a number of other excellent 70s cop/detective series. Too many, in fact, and I suspect it will soon be deleted. Ep. is "Double Jeopardy." #19 of season one. First aired February 13, 1975.
