Body: Looking for a movie "Every Sparrow Must Fall" released in 1964, starring some named Robert Shea, produced by James Gannon (Jay Gee Productions). Mr. Shea stars as a genius electronics experts who was crazy. He uses his smarts and constructs a doomsday device that will kill off all life on earth. He tries the device on all types of humans- old, young, brides, etc. He commits suicide in the end. Not sure if it was ever on VHS or DVD. Can anyone suggest how I can find this- even if it's only a 16mm?

Body: There is a wonderful article in the New York Review of Books 2 July 2009 Issue; 'When Hollywood Dared' describing the films, new with sound, before the 1934 Production Code came to rule. I have not had a chance to look through the data base here to see if they are included or not ( the article mentions about 40 or 50 that I will check on when I have a chance ) here is, I hope, a good link to it ( unfortunately the link is only good to the first portion of the article, one must be a subscriber to read the remaining bulk of the article ): http://www.nybooks.com/articles/article-preview?article_id=22790 I often wondered about the sugar coating found in films afterwards and this article, at least to me, explains the reasons. I love some of the titles: Merrily we go to Hell Other Men's Woman Wild Boys of the Road Blondie Johnson Strangers Kiss Employee's Entrance Naughty Flirt ( any title with 'Naughty' in it, does it for me ) the all sound like Noir, and from the article's vantage, they were, for Noir I think, exposes some very raw edges ( emotions/motivations/doom ) missing from other films of the same periods. ( I still cannot link films while using Google Chrome browser )

Body: [quote user="leeroy711"][quote user="rainbowdragon"] I'm looking for a film on behalf of my flatmate. All he can remember is that it dates to around the 1960s or 1970s and that the people in it laundered hot or stolen gold in a very clever way. Any help would be appreciated. [/quote] He could be thinking of the original Italian Job. I can't remember how the gold was laundered but it's the only movie I can think of from that time period that involves stolen gold.[/quote] No, he says that it wasn't that.

Body: Something has beaten me. I figured maybe somebody could help me figure out the movie (or short film or tv show; Im not so sure) in which a character, attempting to get laid, lies & tells women he was the little kid in the garden with Marlon Brando in The Godfather. i think he does this a couple times. As I mentioned, i'm not even sure it was a movie, but I want to say it was, and an early 90s "indy"-styled one at that.

Body: I can't get this short little montage out of my head, but I can't remember what movie it's from. There's a voice over narration talking about a character in the movie. It's talking about how he had a relative who died in every major American war, and there's a quick montage of each of his relatives being shot and killed in different era war uniforms. I'm not even sure if this was a movie I liked, but I know I've seen it. What is it???

Body: about 6 years ago i watched a film on the telly staring someone who could have been Richard Gere or Harrison Ford, or someone similar looking. i have already searched their films and none really fit the bill so i am thinking it was a different actor all together. The film was about the lead character who throughout the film was being pranked. The pranks were dangerous it was quite thrilling and action based. For example one part of the film he was anonymously give an door handel. Later in the film he was trapped in a taxi that drive into the sea the door handle he still had with him was the only one that fit the taxi door to escape. At the end of the film he finds himself at a huge party people barge in and are shooting he chases them to the top of the building and ends up jumping off to commit suicide-i think- he falls off the building and through a huge glass ceiling he lands on a giant soft area, the glass he had fell through was that thin non-sharp glass used under microscopes and stuff)...anyway his brother comes in and its like his birthday i think and anounces that the whole thing was a big prank on his brother. i know it sounds vague but it was along time ago i watched it if anyone can remember the film i would be gratetful thanks...
