I just watched The Christine Jorgensen Story from 1970. She was the most famost post op transexual of her time. The movie is incredibly campy and many times unintentionally funny, but I was also touched by her story.

Pretty decent prequel. Worth seeing if you're interested. I promise Denzel Washington is not in it. Watched real close in case they tried to sneak him in as an extra. All clear.

Jess Franco's best(and maybe only good) film. Christopher Lee is the real Prince Of Darkness. He'll be 150 years old and still have 4 projects on IMDb in-production at once.

Another great Spanish Production. Classic Christopher Lee/Peter Cushing. Telly Savalas plays an over-the-top Cossack. A mad monk almost steals it.

Curious name if you think about it -and I can therefore understand why he abbreviated it to Telly, but I can't imagine why his parents chose the name Television- does anyone know?Quote:

Nice! Very young Denzell Washington! What about this one: an older Cagney vs a younger Bogart…

I'm actually very limited on my knowledge of film. I need to get more into Bogart and Cagney. Saw A Man Of A Thousand Faces because of my admiration of Lon Chaney Sr.Quote:
