- THE TTH ABOUT THE MAKG OF ‘FROM HERE TO ETERNY’ (1953) SEPTEMBER 9, 2015 ADM MOVI 26 WHEN JAM JON WROTE HIS BT-SELLER FROM HERE TO ETERNY, HE BASED ON HIS OWN EXPERIENC THE US ARMY ON HAWAII JT PRR TO THE PEARL HARBOR BOMBG. THE ORIGAL MANCRIPT NTAED EXTENSIVE E OF THE WORD ‘FUCK’, WHICH MA TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE TO THE CATHOLIC GROUP LLED THE NATNAL ORGANIZATN FOR DECENT LERATURE, WHO BLACKLISTED AND BROUGHT NSIRABLE PRSURE TO BEAR ON BOOKSTOR AMERI-WI. NOT ONLY WAS CHOCK FULL OF EXPLETIV, BUT FROM HERE TO ETERNY ALSO NTAED EXPLIC HOMOSEXUAL SCEN AND DIALOGUE WHICH ED THE HIERARCHY OF THE NODL TO ALMOST SUFFER GROUP APOPLEXY AS THEY MOVED HEAVEN AND EARTH TO HAVE BANNED AND/OR CENSORED. JAM REMOVED ALL BUT 32 MENTNS OF THE F-WORD, BUT FLATLY REFED TO REMOVE ALL THE HOMOSEXUALY OM HIS BOOK, ARGUG THAT ‘HOMOSEXUALY WAS A NATURAL NDN OF MEN CLOSE QUARTERS’. HE ALSO FELT THAT THIS WOULD BE ‘UNFAHFUL TO REALY HE WNSED.’AUTHOR JAM JONIN HIS NOVEL, JAM CLUS NVERSATNS BETWEEN PRIVAT ROBERT E LEE PREWT (PLAYED BY MONTGOMERY CLIFT THE MOVIE) AND ANGELO MAGG (PLAYED BY FRANK SATRA), ABOUT RECEIVG ORAL SEX OM RICH MEN. ‘I DON’T LIKE TO BE BLOWED [BY A MAN]’, PREWT TELLS MAGG, WHO REPLI, ‘OH, ALL RIGHT. I ADM ’S NOTHG LIKE A WOMAN. BUT ’S SOMETHG. BIS, OLD HAL TREATS ME SWELL. HE’S ALWAYS GOOD FOR A TOUCH WHEN I’M BROKE. FIVE BUCKS. TEN BUCKS. COM HANDY THE MIDDLE OF THE MONTH…ONLY REASON I LET HAL BLOW ME IS BEE I GOT A GOOD THG THERE.’SATRA AS PRIVATE ANGELO MAGGCLIFT AS PRIVATE ROBERT E LEE PREWTTHERE WERE OTHER ISSU AS WELL. IN THE BOOK LORENE (DONNA REED) WAS NOT AN NOCENT DANCEHALL GIRL, PAID TO ‘DANCE’ WH SERVICEMEN AT THE CLUB. SHE WAS A PROSTUTE TERG TO SERVICE PERSONNEL. AS FOR DEBORAH KERR’S CHARACTER, KAREN, SHE WAS STERILE BEE HER HBAND’S MANY FILI HAD LAND HER WH A DOSE OF GONORRHEA. IN THE MOVIE SHE BLAMED HER STERILY ON A MISRRIAGE. BOTH REED AND KERR WERE ST AGAST TYPE AND WERE EXCELLENT. DONNA PICKED UP A BT SUPPORTG ACTRS GONG. DEBORAH (AS UAL) WAS NOMATED AND MISSED OUT – AGA. IN FACT, SHE WOULD BE NOMATED SIX TIM DURG HER REER WHOUT WNG.DONNA REED AS LORENEDEBORAH KERR & BURT LANSTEROBVLY, THIS KD OF ACTIVY WAS NEVER GOG TO APPEAR ON THE SCREEN 1953. NOR WAS THE LANGUAGE. WHEN THE ERNMENT ‘SUGGTED’ THAT THE US POSTAL SERVICE MIGHT REFE TO LIVER SUCH ‘SALAC MATERIAL’ TO AMERIN PUBLISHERS AND BOOKSTOR, JAM HAD LTLE CHOICE BUT TO REMOVE MOST OF THE OFFENDG NTENT IF HE HOPED TO SELL HIS BOOK TO THE PUBLIC AND TO A STUD. HE NEVER DID THK MUCH OF THE MOVIE BEE WAS ‘TOO SANIZED’ HE SAID.BURT LANSTER IS TERRIFIC THIS PICTURE. IT, THEREFORE, AS A SURPRISE TO LEARN THAT HE WAS QUE OVERAWED TO BE ACTG ALONGSI A TALENT SUCH AS MONTGOMERY CLIFT. ‘THE ONLY TIME I WAS REALLY AAID AS AN ACTOR’, HE ADMTED LATER, ‘WAS THAT FIRST SCENE WH CLIFT. IT WAS MY SCENE, UNRSTAND: I WAS THE SERGEANT, I GAVE THE ORRS. HE WAS JT A PRIVATE UNR ME. WELL, WHEN WE STARTED, I ULDN’T STOP MY KNE OM SHAKG. I THOUGHT THEY MIGHT HAVE TO STOP BEE MY TREMBLG WOULD SHOW. I WAS AAID HE WAS GOG TO BLOW ME RIGHT OFF THE SCREEN.’ HE DIDN’T. LANSTER WAS SERGEANT WARN. BOTH MEN WERE NOMATED FOR OSRS, BUT TOOK VOT OM EACH OTHER, RULTG WILLIAM HOLN WNG THE BT ACTOR STATUETTE FOR STALAG 17.BURT & MONTY FHTEINIALLY, SATRA AND CLIFT H OFF ON AND OFF THE SET, BUT THEIR IENDSHIP END THREE YEARS LATER. AT ONE OF FRANK’S PARTI OLE BLUE EY WATCHED WH REVULSN AS MONTY MA HOMOSEXUAL OVERTUR TO ONE OF HIS ENTOURAGE. LATER, HE HAD HIS BODYGUARDS REMOVE CLIFT OM THE PREMIS. HARRY COHN MOST CERTALY DID NOT WANT MONTY TO PLAY PREWT BEE HE WAS, ‘NO SOLDIER, NO BOXER, AND PROBABLY A HOMOSEXUAL’, HE SAID. DIRECTOR FRED ZNEMANN REFED TO MAKE THE PICTURE WHOUT HIM. CLIFT, WHO ULD NOT NVCGLY PUNCH HIS WAY OUT OF A MERGUE, IS ‘DOUBLED’ THE BOXG SCENE, POSSIBLY THE WORST AND MOST OBV E OF A ‘DOUBLE’ THE HISTORY OF MOVI.DIRECTOR FRED ZNEMANNSPEAKG OF CLIFT (AND LANSTER), BURT WAS OFFERED HIS FIRST ROLE AS MATTHEW GARTH RED RIVER, THE PART THAT ULTIMATELY WENT TO CLIFT AND MA HIM A STAR. BURT HAD ONLY JT SIGNED TO MAKE THE KILLERS, SO WAS FORCED TO REJECT THE (ARGUABLY) BETTER ROLE. THEN AGA, HE GOT TO PLAY OPPOSE THE STUNNG AVA GARDNER. EVERY CLOUD, WOULD SEEM, HAS A DIRTY BIG SILVER LG! PERHAPS, WAS FOR THE BT ANYWAY. THE STAR OF RED RIVER, JOHN WAYNE, WAS A PROMENT REPUBLIN WHO WOULD LATER BE ACTIVELY VOLVED THE MCCARTHY WCH HUNTS. LANSTER WAS ADAMANTLY OPPOSED TO THEM. THE TWO MEN WOULD MOST CERTALY HAVE NOT GOT ALONG. YEARS LATER WAYNE ATTEMPTED TO GET BURT TO JO HIM ANOTHER WTERN. LANSTER DISMISSED THE IA OUT OF HAND.MONTY’S BUT RED RIVERBURT’S BUT (WH AVA GARDNER) THE KILLERSNICK CRAVAT, A SHORT, MCULAR MAN WH A BEARD, WAS BURT LANSTER’S CIRC PAL AND FOLLOWED HIM TO THE MOVIE BS. NICK FOUND IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE OR EVEN DISGUISE HIS PRONOUNCED BROOKLYN ACCENT, ONE THAT WAS TOTALLY OUT OF PLACE PERD PICTUR SUCH AS THE CRIMSON PIRATE (1952) AND OTHER LANSTER FILMS LIKE THE FLAME AND THE ARROW (1950), BUT THE PROBLEM WAS SOLVED BY HAVG HIM PORTRAY A AF MUTE WHENEVER HE APPEARED ON-SCREEN. HE WOULD PASS AWAY THE SAME YEAR AS BURT – 1994. LANSTER’S WIFE RELLED THAT NICK’S VOTN TO BURT WAS ALL-NSUMG, PECIALLY AFTER HIS IEND SUFFERED A SEVERE SEIZURE THAT PUT HIM HOSPAL UNTIL FEBARY 1991. BETWEEN THEN AND 1994 CRAVAT VISED HIM AT HOME EVERY DAY, AND UALLY END UP WEEPG PLY AT HIS BEDSI. MRS LANSTER HAD TO REGULARLY ASK HIM TO LEAVE BEE HE WAS PRSG HER HBAND. FOR THOSE LAST THREE YEARS OF HIS LIFE LANSTER WAS TOTALLY PACATED AND UNABLE TO SPEAK YET, IRONILLY, HE WOULD OUTLIVE CRAVAT BY SEVERAL MONTHS.BURT & HIS PAL NICK THE CRIMSON PIRATEDURG THE SHOOTG OF FHTE LANSTER AND DEBORAH KERR HAD AN AFFAIR OFF-SCREEN. THE LIGHTFUL MISS KERR WAS NOT THE PRIM AND ETERNALLY PROPER WOMAN SHE UALLY PORTRAYED ON SCREEN. SHE ENJOYED LIFE A REHG, OPEN WAY. WHEN SHE MA HEAVEN KNOWS, MR. ALLISON, 1957 WH ROBERT MCHUM, THERE WAS A TURTLE-CHASG SEQUENCE WHICH SHE (PLAYG A CATHOLIC NUN) WAS REQUIRED TO PADDLE THE BOAT. DIRECTOR JOHN HTON KEPT YELLG, ‘FASTER, GO FASTER’ AS SHE PADDLED FURLY. SUDNLY, THE PADDLE SNAPPED TWO. ‘IS THAT FUCKG FAST ENOUGH?’ SHE SCREAMED. MCHUM AND HTON ADORED HER. EVERYONE DID.DEBORAH HEAVEN KNOWS MR. ALLISONTHE FAMO ‘KISSG THE SURF’ SCENE BETWEEN LANSTER AND KERR WAS NSIRED TO BE ‘HOT STUFF’ BACK THE FIFTI. TODAY, IS AS TAME AS DISHWATER, BUT BACK THEN MANY PROJECTNISTS SNIPPED STILLS OM THE SCENE TO KEEP AS SOUVENIRS. THE MOTN PICTURE ASSOCIATN OF AMERI (MPAA) ACTUALLY BANNED STILLS OM THEIR BEACH KISS FOR BEG ‘TOO EROTIC’. THE CENSORS SISTED THAT DEBORAH’S BATHG STUME MT HAVE A SKIRT, TO AVOID BEG TOO SEXUALLY PROVOTIVE, THE BEACH LLED HALONA COVE, ON THE EASTERN SI OF OAHU, SUFFERED A NAME CHANGE TO ‘THE FROM HERE TO ETERNY BEACH’, WOULD YOU BELIEVE?THAT KISS. SHOCKG!THE OFT REPEATED STORY, ENHANCED BY THE FICTNAL SCRIPT OF THE GODFATHER, THAT SATRA ONLY GOT THE ROLE OF MAGG THROUGH PRSURE BEG BROUGHT TO BEAR BY HIS MOB NNECTNS, WOULD APPEAR TO BE FICT. IN LATER YEARS FRANK’S EX-WIFE AVA GARDNER SUGGTED TO COLUMBIA BOSS HARRY COHN THAT HE E SATRA. SHE WAS MAKG A FILM FOR COLUMBIA AT THE TIME. FRANK’S REER WAS AT ROCK BOTTOM AND COHN KNEW . HE ALSO KNEW HE ULD GET THE WASHED UP SGER/ACTOR FOR PEANUTS, SO HE HIRED HIM FOR A TOKEN $8,000. FRANK WOULD HAVE DONE FOR NOTHG, SO SPERATE WAS HE TO GET BACK THE GAME. AS HISTORY WILL TELL , HE WON AN OSR FOR HIS PERFORMANCE AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. THE STORY THAT GEE REEV’ PART WAS SLASHED BEE OF HIS FAME AS TV’S SUPERMAN IS JT NOT TE. ZNEMANN STATED LATER THAT ALL HIS SCEN THE PICTURE REMAED TACT.REEV AND LANSTER FHTEONE FAL POT OF TERT.

IN THOSE DAYS, BEG LABELLED QUEER ULD GET YOU BEAT UP AND OSTRACIZED BEE OUR OUR FORCED CLOSE QUARTERS (THE HEADS DIDN’T EVEN HAVE STALL WALLS). ADMTEDLY, FOUL LANGUAGE WAS ACCEPTED AND MON, DNKENNS AND WEEKEND SEXUAL PAS HAPPENED REGULARLY WH SOME GUYS, BUT GENERALLY, MOST OF MY FELLOW AIRMEN WERE GOOD, TOUGH MEN WH A DIFFICULT JOB TO DO. MANY WERE QUE MORAL THEIR OWN WAY. THE CHAPEL WAS WELL ATTEND ON SUNDAY, MUCH LIKE ANY SMALL TOWN. NOT EVERYONE WENT, BUT MANY DID. I MET A LOT OF MEN, OM ALL PARTS OF THE UNTRY, WHO ME OM VERY DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS AND BELIEFS, BUT WE GENERALLY RPECTED EACH OTHER AND LOOKED OUT FOR EACH OTHER. THE WAR WAS OUR MON ENEMY. THERE WAS A MONLY ACCEPTED OF NDUCT THAT ROUGHLY REFLECTED THE LARGER SOCIETY OUTSI OUR ARY FATHER, WHO SAW BAT THE NAVY DURG WWII (1941 TO 1945) SAW PRETTY MUCH THE SAME THG I DID. THE 1941 ARY PORTRAYED THE MOVIE “FROM HERE TO ETERNY” IS, MY OPN, A DISTORTN OF REALY, SEEN THROUGH THE EY OF AN OBVLY BTER MAN. THE MOVIE, GOOD PERFORMANC NOT WHSTANDG, IS AN OVER-RATED SOUP OPERA THAT CELEBRAT IMMORALY AMONG THE TROOPS. FOR ME REPRENTS THE EARLY DAYS OF HOLLYWOOD’S ON-GOG EFFORT TO GA ACCEPTANCE OF LOWER MORAL STANDARDS FOR OUR SOCIETY GENERAL.REPLY ALAN ROYLE JUNE 25, 2019 AT 2:39 PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR OBVLY SCERE AND NDID MENTS. I CED THE WRER’S BOOK AND HIS ATTUS, BUT I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWG HOW ACCURATE OR RELIABLE WERE HIS STATEMENTS. FRANKLY, I PREFER TO ACCEPT YOUR VIEWS AND RELLECTNS ON THE ARMED SERVIC AND NOT HIS. YOU WERE THERE. I GREATLY APPRECIATE YOU TAKG THE TIME TO SET THE RERD STRAIGHT. THANKS AGA.REPLY S. ALLEN SEPTEMBER 18, 2015 AT 12:34 AM THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THKG OF WHEN I MA MY MENT. WHEN HAWKS TOLD BALL SHE’D HAVE TO PLAY THE PART THE RT OF HER LIFE, SHE WAS QUOTED AS SAYG, “I WILL.” [THIS WAS OM PRTED TERVIEW BETWEEN HAWKS AND SOMEONE ELSE. I THK HE WAS DISCSG WORKG W/ DIFFERENT ACTORS.]REPLY ALAN ROYLE SEPTEMBER 18, 2015 AT 10:07 AM I SUPPOSE WORKS BOTH WAYS. A WOMAN MIGHT FALL LOVE WH BOGIE’S ‘CASABLAN’ IMAGE AS THE MYSTER, WORLD-WEARY RICK, THEN FD THAT THE MAN HIMSELF WEARS A TOUPEE AND DRKS AND SMOK FAR TOO MUCH.

NEVER THE MOVIE IS SAID THAT HE’S A “CHAMPN.” I MIGHT ALSO POT OUT THAT THE GUY WAS A BUGLER, TOO…WHICH MIGHT REQUIRE A CERTA AMOUNT OF SENSIVY. IN OTHER WORDS, ALL FIGHTERS AREN’T MUGS AND CLIFT WAS EXCEPTNAL BRGG A MULTI-LAYERED CHARACTER TO THE SCREEN.REPLY ALAN ROYLE MARCH 4, 2023 AT 9:13 PM I LIKE MONTY CLIFT AS AN ACTOR, MICHAEL, BUT WHY EVERYONE WANTED HIM TO JO THE BOXG TEAM IS BEYOND ME.

THE TTH ABOUT THE MAKG OF ‘FROM HERE TO ETERNY’ (1953) SEPTEMBER 9, 2015 ADM MOVI 26 WHEN JAM JON WROTE HIS BT-SELLER FROM HERE TO ETERNY, HE BASED ON HIS OWN EXPERIENC THE US ARMY ON HAWAII JT PRR TO THE PEARL HARBOR BOMBG. THE ORIGAL MANCRIPT NTAED EXTENSIVE E OF THE WORD ‘FUCK’, WHICH MA TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE TO THE CATHOLIC GROUP LLED THE NATNAL ORGANIZATN FOR DECENT LERATURE, WHO BLACKLISTED AND BROUGHT NSIRABLE PRSURE TO BEAR ON BOOKSTOR AMERI-WI. NOT ONLY WAS CHOCK FULL OF EXPLETIV, BUT FROM HERE TO ETERNY ALSO NTAED EXPLIC HOMOSEXUAL SCEN AND DIALOGUE WHICH ED THE HIERARCHY OF THE NODL TO ALMOST SUFFER GROUP APOPLEXY AS THEY MOVED HEAVEN AND EARTH TO HAVE BANNED AND/OR CENSORED. JAM REMOVED ALL BUT 32 MENTNS OF THE F-WORD, BUT FLATLY REFED TO REMOVE ALL THE HOMOSEXUALY OM HIS BOOK, ARGUG THAT ‘HOMOSEXUALY WAS A NATURAL NDN OF MEN CLOSE QUARTERS’. HE ALSO FELT THAT THIS WOULD BE ‘UNFAHFUL TO REALY HE WNSED.’AUTHOR JAM JONIN HIS NOVEL, JAM CLUS NVERSATNS BETWEEN PRIVAT ROBERT E LEE PREWT (PLAYED BY MONTGOMERY CLIFT THE MOVIE) AND ANGELO MAGG (PLAYED BY FRANK SATRA), ABOUT RECEIVG ORAL SEX OM RICH MEN. ‘I DON’T LIKE TO BE BLOWED [BY A MAN]’, PREWT TELLS MAGG, WHO REPLI, ‘OH, ALL RIGHT. I ADM ’S NOTHG LIKE A WOMAN. BUT ’S SOMETHG. BIS, OLD HAL TREATS ME SWELL. HE’S ALWAYS GOOD FOR A TOUCH WHEN I’M BROKE. FIVE BUCKS. TEN BUCKS. COM HANDY THE MIDDLE OF THE MONTH…ONLY REASON I LET HAL BLOW ME IS BEE I GOT A GOOD THG THERE.’SATRA AS PRIVATE ANGELO MAGGCLIFT AS PRIVATE ROBERT E LEE PREWTTHERE WERE OTHER ISSU AS WELL. IN THE BOOK LORENE (DONNA REED) WAS NOT AN NOCENT DANCEHALL GIRL, PAID TO ‘DANCE’ WH SERVICEMEN AT THE CLUB. SHE WAS A PROSTUTE TERG TO SERVICE PERSONNEL. AS FOR DEBORAH KERR’S CHARACTER, KAREN, SHE WAS STERILE BEE HER HBAND’S MANY FILI HAD LAND HER WH A DOSE OF GONORRHEA. IN THE MOVIE SHE BLAMED HER STERILY ON A MISRRIAGE. BOTH REED AND KERR WERE ST AGAST TYPE AND WERE EXCELLENT. DONNA PICKED UP A BT SUPPORTG ACTRS GONG. DEBORAH (AS UAL) WAS NOMATED AND MISSED OUT – AGA. IN FACT, SHE WOULD BE NOMATED SIX TIM DURG HER REER WHOUT WNG.DONNA REED AS LORENEDEBORAH KERR & BURT LANSTEROBVLY, THIS KD OF ACTIVY WAS NEVER GOG TO APPEAR ON THE SCREEN 1953. NOR WAS THE LANGUAGE. WHEN THE ERNMENT ‘SUGGTED’ THAT THE US POSTAL SERVICE MIGHT REFE TO LIVER SUCH ‘SALAC MATERIAL’ TO AMERIN PUBLISHERS AND BOOKSTOR, JAM HAD LTLE CHOICE BUT TO REMOVE MOST OF THE OFFENDG NTENT IF HE HOPED TO SELL HIS BOOK TO THE PUBLIC AND TO A STUD. HE NEVER DID THK MUCH OF THE MOVIE BEE WAS ‘TOO SANIZED’ HE SAID.BURT LANSTER IS TERRIFIC THIS PICTURE. IT, THEREFORE, AS A SURPRISE TO LEARN THAT HE WAS QUE OVERAWED TO BE ACTG ALONGSI A TALENT SUCH AS MONTGOMERY CLIFT. ‘THE ONLY TIME I WAS REALLY AAID AS AN ACTOR’, HE ADMTED LATER, ‘WAS THAT FIRST SCENE WH CLIFT. IT WAS MY SCENE, UNRSTAND: I WAS THE SERGEANT, I GAVE THE ORRS. HE WAS JT A PRIVATE UNR ME. WELL, WHEN WE STARTED, I ULDN’T STOP MY KNE OM SHAKG. I THOUGHT THEY MIGHT HAVE TO STOP BEE MY TREMBLG WOULD SHOW. I WAS AAID HE WAS GOG TO BLOW ME RIGHT OFF THE SCREEN.’ HE DIDN’T. LANSTER WAS SERGEANT WARN. BOTH MEN WERE NOMATED FOR OSRS, BUT TOOK VOT OM EACH OTHER, RULTG WILLIAM HOLN WNG THE BT ACTOR STATUETTE FOR STALAG 17.BURT & MONTY FHTEINIALLY, SATRA AND CLIFT H OFF ON AND OFF THE SET, BUT THEIR IENDSHIP END THREE YEARS LATER. AT ONE OF FRANK’S PARTI OLE BLUE EY WATCHED WH REVULSN AS MONTY MA HOMOSEXUAL OVERTUR TO ONE OF HIS ENTOURAGE. LATER, HE HAD HIS BODYGUARDS REMOVE CLIFT OM THE PREMIS. HARRY COHN MOST CERTALY DID NOT WANT MONTY TO PLAY PREWT BEE HE WAS, ‘NO SOLDIER, NO BOXER, AND PROBABLY A HOMOSEXUAL’, HE SAID. DIRECTOR FRED ZNEMANN REFED TO MAKE THE PICTURE WHOUT HIM. CLIFT, WHO ULD NOT NVCGLY PUNCH HIS WAY OUT OF A MERGUE, IS ‘DOUBLED’ THE BOXG SCENE, POSSIBLY THE WORST AND MOST OBV E OF A ‘DOUBLE’ THE HISTORY OF MOVI.DIRECTOR FRED ZNEMANNSPEAKG OF CLIFT (AND LANSTER), BURT WAS OFFERED HIS FIRST ROLE AS MATTHEW GARTH RED RIVER, THE PART THAT ULTIMATELY WENT TO CLIFT AND MA HIM A STAR. BURT HAD ONLY JT SIGNED TO MAKE THE KILLERS, SO WAS FORCED TO REJECT THE (ARGUABLY) BETTER ROLE. THEN AGA, HE GOT TO PLAY OPPOSE THE STUNNG AVA GARDNER. EVERY CLOUD, WOULD SEEM, HAS A DIRTY BIG SILVER LG! PERHAPS, WAS FOR THE BT ANYWAY. THE STAR OF RED RIVER, JOHN WAYNE, WAS A PROMENT REPUBLIN WHO WOULD LATER BE ACTIVELY VOLVED THE MCCARTHY WCH HUNTS. LANSTER WAS ADAMANTLY OPPOSED TO THEM. THE TWO MEN WOULD MOST CERTALY HAVE NOT GOT ALONG. YEARS LATER WAYNE ATTEMPTED TO GET BURT TO JO HIM ANOTHER WTERN. LANSTER DISMISSED THE IA OUT OF HAND.MONTY’S BUT RED RIVERBURT’S BUT (WH AVA GARDNER) THE KILLERSNICK CRAVAT, A SHORT, MCULAR MAN WH A BEARD, WAS BURT LANSTER’S CIRC PAL AND FOLLOWED HIM TO THE MOVIE BS. NICK FOUND IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE OR EVEN DISGUISE HIS PRONOUNCED BROOKLYN ACCENT, ONE THAT WAS TOTALLY OUT OF PLACE PERD PICTUR SUCH AS THE CRIMSON PIRATE (1952) AND OTHER LANSTER FILMS LIKE THE FLAME AND THE ARROW (1950), BUT THE PROBLEM WAS SOLVED BY HAVG HIM PORTRAY A AF MUTE WHENEVER HE APPEARED ON-SCREEN. HE WOULD PASS AWAY THE SAME YEAR AS BURT – 1994. LANSTER’S WIFE RELLED THAT NICK’S VOTN TO BURT WAS ALL-NSUMG, PECIALLY AFTER HIS IEND SUFFERED A SEVERE SEIZURE THAT PUT HIM HOSPAL UNTIL FEBARY 1991. BETWEEN THEN AND 1994 CRAVAT VISED HIM AT HOME EVERY DAY, AND UALLY END UP WEEPG PLY AT HIS BEDSI. MRS LANSTER HAD TO REGULARLY ASK HIM TO LEAVE BEE HE WAS PRSG HER HBAND. FOR THOSE LAST THREE YEARS OF HIS LIFE LANSTER WAS TOTALLY PACATED AND UNABLE TO SPEAK YET, IRONILLY, HE WOULD OUTLIVE CRAVAT BY SEVERAL MONTHS.BURT & HIS PAL NICK THE CRIMSON PIRATEDURG THE SHOOTG OF FHTE LANSTER AND DEBORAH KERR HAD AN AFFAIR OFF-SCREEN. THE LIGHTFUL MISS KERR WAS NOT THE PRIM AND ETERNALLY PROPER WOMAN SHE UALLY PORTRAYED ON SCREEN. SHE ENJOYED LIFE A REHG, OPEN WAY. WHEN SHE MA HEAVEN KNOWS, MR. ALLISON, 1957 WH ROBERT MCHUM, THERE WAS A TURTLE-CHASG SEQUENCE WHICH SHE (PLAYG A CATHOLIC NUN) WAS REQUIRED TO PADDLE THE BOAT. DIRECTOR JOHN HTON KEPT YELLG, ‘FASTER, GO FASTER’ AS SHE PADDLED FURLY. SUDNLY, THE PADDLE SNAPPED TWO. ‘IS THAT FUCKG FAST ENOUGH?’ SHE SCREAMED. MCHUM AND HTON ADORED HER. EVERYONE DID.DEBORAH HEAVEN KNOWS MR. ALLISONTHE FAMO ‘KISSG THE SURF’ SCENE BETWEEN LANSTER AND KERR WAS NSIRED TO BE ‘HOT STUFF’ BACK THE FIFTI. TODAY, IS AS TAME AS DISHWATER, BUT BACK THEN MANY PROJECTNISTS SNIPPED STILLS OM THE SCENE TO KEEP AS SOUVENIRS. THE MOTN PICTURE ASSOCIATN OF AMERI (MPAA) ACTUALLY BANNED STILLS OM THEIR BEACH KISS FOR BEG ‘TOO EROTIC’. THE CENSORS SISTED THAT DEBORAH’S BATHG STUME MT HAVE A SKIRT, TO AVOID BEG TOO SEXUALLY PROVOTIVE, THE BEACH LLED HALONA COVE, ON THE EASTERN SI OF OAHU, SUFFERED A NAME CHANGE TO ‘THE FROM HERE TO ETERNY BEACH’, WOULD YOU BELIEVE?THAT KISS. SHOCKG!THE OFT REPEATED STORY, ENHANCED BY THE FICTNAL SCRIPT OF THE GODFATHER, THAT SATRA ONLY GOT THE ROLE OF MAGG THROUGH PRSURE BEG BROUGHT TO BEAR BY HIS MOB NNECTNS, WOULD APPEAR TO BE FICT. IN LATER YEARS FRANK’S EX-WIFE AVA GARDNER SUGGTED TO COLUMBIA BOSS HARRY COHN THAT HE E SATRA. SHE WAS MAKG A FILM FOR COLUMBIA AT THE TIME. FRANK’S REER WAS AT ROCK BOTTOM AND COHN KNEW . HE ALSO KNEW HE ULD GET THE WASHED UP SGER/ACTOR FOR PEANUTS, SO HE HIRED HIM FOR A TOKEN $8,000. FRANK WOULD HAVE DONE FOR NOTHG, SO SPERATE WAS HE TO GET BACK THE GAME. AS HISTORY WILL TELL , HE WON AN OSR FOR HIS PERFORMANCE AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. THE STORY THAT GEE REEV’ PART WAS SLASHED BEE OF HIS FAME AS TV’S SUPERMAN IS JT NOT TE.

IN THOSE DAYS, BEG LABELLED QUEER ULD GET YOU BEAT UP AND OSTRACIZED BEE OUR OUR FORCED CLOSE QUARTERS (THE HEADS DIDN’T EVEN HAVE STALL WALLS). ADMTEDLY, FOUL LANGUAGE WAS ACCEPTED AND MON, DNKENNS AND WEEKEND SEXUAL PAS HAPPENED REGULARLY WH SOME GUYS, BUT GENERALLY, MOST OF MY FELLOW AIRMEN WERE GOOD, TOUGH MEN WH A DIFFICULT JOB TO DO. MANY WERE QUE MORAL THEIR OWN WAY. THE CHAPEL WAS WELL ATTEND ON SUNDAY, MUCH LIKE ANY SMALL TOWN. NOT EVERYONE WENT, BUT MANY DID. I MET A LOT OF MEN, OM ALL PARTS OF THE UNTRY, WHO ME OM VERY DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS AND BELIEFS, BUT WE GENERALLY RPECTED EACH OTHER AND LOOKED OUT FOR EACH OTHER. THE WAR WAS OUR MON ENEMY. THERE WAS A MONLY ACCEPTED OF NDUCT THAT ROUGHLY REFLECTED THE LARGER SOCIETY OUTSI OUR ARY FATHER, WHO SAW BAT THE NAVY DURG WWII (1941 TO 1945) SAW PRETTY MUCH THE SAME THG I DID. THE 1941 ARY PORTRAYED THE MOVIE “FROM HERE TO ETERNY” IS, MY OPN, A DISTORTN OF REALY, SEEN THROUGH THE EY OF AN OBVLY BTER MAN. THE MOVIE, GOOD PERFORMANC NOT WHSTANDG, IS AN OVER-RATED SOUP OPERA THAT CELEBRAT IMMORALY AMONG THE TROOPS. FOR ME REPRENTS THE EARLY DAYS OF HOLLYWOOD’S ON-GOG EFFORT TO GA ACCEPTANCE OF LOWER MORAL STANDARDS FOR OUR SOCIETY GENERAL.REPLY ALAN ROYLE JUNE 25, 2019 AT 2:39 PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR OBVLY SCERE AND NDID MENTS. I CED THE WRER’S BOOK AND HIS ATTUS, BUT I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWG HOW ACCURATE OR RELIABLE WERE HIS STATEMENTS. FRANKLY, I PREFER TO ACCEPT YOUR VIEWS AND RELLECTNS ON THE ARMED SERVIC AND NOT HIS. YOU WERE THERE. I GREATLY APPRECIATE YOU TAKG THE TIME TO SET THE RERD STRAIGHT. THANKS AGA.REPLY S. ALLEN SEPTEMBER 18, 2015 AT 12:34 AM THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THKG OF WHEN I MA MY MENT.

I THK HE WAS DISCSG WORKG W/ DIFFERENT ACTORS.]REPLY ALAN ROYLE SEPTEMBER 18, 2015 AT 10:07 AM I SUPPOSE WORKS BOTH WAYS. A WOMAN MIGHT FALL LOVE WH BOGIE’S ‘CASABLAN’ IMAGE AS THE MYSTER, WORLD-WEARY RICK, THEN FD THAT THE MAN HIMSELF WEARS A TOUPEE AND DRKS AND SMOK FAR TOO MUCH. IT WAS RA HAYWORTH WHO MA THE CLASSIC STATEMENT ON THIS ISSUE – ‘THEY GO TO BED WH GILDA AND WAKE UP WH ME.’REPLY S. ALLEN SEPTEMBER 17, 2015 AT 2:43 PM I AGREE W/ YOU ABOUT THE TIMACY, PROXIMY AMONG ACTORS LEADG TO SEX, ETC. ALSO, AN ACTOR MAY “FALL LOVE” W/ THE PART THEIR STAR IS PLAYG, RATHER THAN THAT PERSON; ONLY TO FD OUT LATER THAT “THE PRODUCT IS NOT THE SAME AS THE SAMPLE”[AS MY FATHER ONCE SAID.] THIS IS MORE PLITED IF MARRIAGE TAK PLACE.REPLY ALAN ROYLE SEPTEMBER 17, 2015 AT 8:49 PM GOOD POT, SHIELA. I RELL READG THAT HOWARD HAWKS BELIEVED THAT BOGIE FELL LOVE WH BALL’S CHARACTER (SLIM) ‘TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT’, AND EXPECTED HER TO NTUE TO BE SLIM THEIR MARRIAGE. ONLY HAWKS’ OPN, OF URSE.REPLY S. ALLEN SEPTEMBER 16, 2015 AT 1:25 PM INTERTG ABOUT AVA AND ROBERT TAYLOR, BUT APPEARS THAT EVERY – BODY WAS VOLVED WH EVERYBODY. IF I WANT SOMEBODY, I’LL GO AFTER HER/HIM, MARRIED OR NOT. I KNEW ALMOST NONE OF THIS UNTIL I STARTED READG YOUR ENTRI. AVA WAS WARNED BY IEND, LANA TURNER TO STAY AWAY OM FRANK SATRA; ‘HONEY, I’VE BEEN THERE, DON’T DO .’REPLY ALAN ROYLE SEPTEMBER 16, 2015 AT 8:13 PM Y, SEEMS THAT MOST OF THE PEOPLE HAD PHYSIL BETY AND LTLE ELSE.

I THK THAT IS HALF THE REASON WHY I HAVE NEVER LIKED MICKEY ROONEY. I ULD NOT IMAGE ANY GUY CHEATG ON AVA. HE WOULD HAVE TO BE A STARK RAVG IDT. ONE OF MY FAVOURE MOVI (I HAVE LOTS OF THEM) IS ‘EAST SI, WT SI’, A DRAMA THAT FEATUR AVA, STANWYCK AND CYD CHARRISSE. IT WAS MA AT THE TIME WHEN AVA WAS HEAVILY VOLVED WH BARBARA’S HBAND, ROBERT TAYLOR, AND THE NONTATN BETWEEN THE TWO LADI’CHARACTERS THE MOVIE HAS AN EXTRA ‘ZG’ TO .

IT LED TO AN VOLVED DISCSN.REPLY ALAN ROYLE SEPTEMBER 13, 2015 AT 6:58 PM OF URSE, THERE HAVE BEEN OLR WOMAN – YOUNGER MAN ROMANC, BUT THEY ARE NOT VERY OFTEN SCRIPTED TO MOVI. OLR MEN- YOUNGER WOMWN SCENARS, HOWEVER, ARE SCRIPTED REGULARLY. DOUBLE STANDARDS EVERYWHERE.REPLY S.

IT WAS 1953. HIS MARRIAGE (TO NORMA ANRSON) NTUED UNTIL 1969; DEBORAH’S (TO ANTHONY BARTLEY) UNTIL 1960. PRUMABLY, WAS ONE OF THOSE ‘LOTN AFFAIRS’ THAT END WHEN THE PICTURE END AND THEY WENT THEIR SEPARATE WAYS. THAT KD OF THG HAPPENED ALL THE TIME.REPLY S.

IT WAS NOT TEND ORIGALLY. I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THE MOVIE, ALTHOUGH I HAVE TO AGREE WH HARRY COHN – MONTY CLIFT WAS A POOR CHOICE TO PLAY A SOLDIER WHO JT HAPPENS TO BE A BOXG CHAMPN. I THK DONNA REED ULD HAVE TAKEN HIM.REPLY MICHAEL MURPHY FEBARY 21, 2023 AT 4:31 AM CLIFT WAS A POOR CHOICE? BALONEY! HE WAS BRILLIANT, AND HIS PERFORMANCE NTRIBUTED MIGHTILY TO THE SUCCS OF THE FILM. FIGHTERS E ALL SHAP AND SIZ, AND HE PORTRAYED A WELTERWEIGHT WHO ME STRAIGHT OM THE RANKS. WE’RE NOT TALKG ABOUT JOE LOUIS HERE. THIS WAS JT REGIMENTAL BOXG…ONE SOLDIER VERS ANOTHER. NEVER THE MOVIE IS SAID THAT HE’S A “CHAMPN.” I MIGHT ALSO POT OUT THAT THE GUY WAS A BUGLER, TOO…WHICH MIGHT REQUIRE A CERTA AMOUNT OF SENSIVY. IN OTHER WORDS, ALL FIGHTERS AREN’T MUGS AND CLIFT WAS EXCEPTNAL BRGG A MULTI-LAYERED CHARACTER TO THE SCREEN.REPLY ALAN ROYLE MARCH 4, 2023 AT 9:13 PM I LIKE MONTY CLIFT AS AN ACTOR, MICHAEL, BUT WHY EVERYONE WANTED HIM TO JO THE BOXG TEAM IS BEYOND ME.
