  2. I thought you said this blog was gay, Herb. What are you trying to do to Matt Stout? Are you trying to steer him down crooked paths? Oh, and thank you.

  3. Cool! I have a similar concept, and I’m even at the exact same point in movie history: http://max256.bearstrong.net/category/movies-tv/40s-movies/

  10. Perhaps you can help me remember the title of a film I saw as a boy in the 1950’s. It was a gangster movie, in color, and all I can recall is the final scene (which has haunted me ever since.) The alpha villain, confined to a wheel chair, goes hurtling down a long flight of exterior stone stairs.

    Not much of a clue, to be sure.

    • That’s probably Richard Widmark in Kiss of Death (1947) tying up Mildred Dunnock to her wheelchair and pushing her down the stairs

      • It’s probably not Kiss of Death, because Paul said it was in color (Kiss of Death is in black & white), and that it is the alpha villain hurtling down a flight of steps in a wheelchair in the final scene. The famous wheelchair scene in Kiss of Death is an innocent person, and it’s not the final scene.

        The only movie I can think of where a villain goes careening to his death in a wheelchair as the final scene is Whiplash, from 1948, although it’s a black & white movie, not a color movie.
