Choque de titanes en Hollywood: Charles Laughton, actor de Óscar, aceptó rodar la comedia Abbott and Costello Meet Captain Kidd (1952) solo para que Lou Costello le enseñara el arte de la mueca cómica. 👇

CURIOSIDADES DE CINE… REMBRANDT DE ALEXANDER KORDA.
Alexander Korda y Charles Laughton volvian a coincidir de nuevo en un largometraje después de su anterior colaboración, La vida privada de Enrique VIII.

Ein Moment, in dem das Kino seine ganze eigene Geschichte neu überschrieben hat: Dieser Film gehört ganz ohne Zweifel zu den ganz seltenen Fällen. Er ist noch immer ein Monument. Aber auch eines, das immer noch unter seiner Oberfläche brodelt. Kein sauberer Sandalenfilm, sondern ein hochpolitischer Kommentar. Einer, der unter der Last seiner eigenen Entstehungsgeschichte fast zerbrochen ist und genau daraus noch immer seine ganze Wucht zieht. Mit Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis, Jean Simmons, Peter Ustinov und Laurence Olivier. (ARTE, Wh.)

CURIOSIDADES DE CINE… LA REINA VIRGEN de George Sidney.
El film supuso el reencuentro de Charles Laughton con un personaje que le iba como anillo al dedo, y que además había marcado su carrera, el del rey Enrique VIII, que ya le había proporcionado el codiciado Oscar como mejor actor principal por su trabajo en La vida privada de Enrique VIII, estrenada en 1933 y dirigida por Alexander Korda…

Gerichtssäle sind im Kino ja immer auch Bühnen. Als Orte der Inszenierung, kunstvoller Rhetorik und Macht über die Narrative. Genau deshalb funktionieren sie so gut als Filmraum. Wer spricht überzeugender? Wer kontrolliert die Blicke? Wer schreibt womöglich die Geschichte eines Verbrechens um? Dieser ewige Klassiker des Genres von Billy Wilder gehört wohl zu den elegantesten Antworten auf all diese Fragen. Mit einer glatt unglaublichen Marlene Dietrich. (ARTE, Wh.)

"There are 2,081,376,000 seconds in the average man's life, each tick of the clock the beat of a heart, and yet you sit here uselessly ticking your lives away..."

In part 19 of the Breaking Walls series on what was on US radio on June 6, 1944, a program written by Norman Corwin, "the poet laureate of #CBS" (back when that was a job someone could have) in a program about Carl Sandburg featuring Charles Laughton. And if that's not enough of a hook, it's wrapped in an original Bernard Herrmann score.

Carole Lombard and Charles Laughton, Silver Screen, Nov. 1940

“Carole and Charles appear together in ‘They Knew What They Wanted,’ a down-to-earth comedy-drama of a lovable California grape-grower and his mail order bride. The film is adapted from the Pulitzer Prize play of the same name by the late Sidney Howard.”

Full page ad for “They Knew What They Wanted”, starring Carole Lombard and Charles Laughton. Directed by Garson Kanin — Hollywood magazine, Nov. 1940

Looking at cast and director, I’d have naively assumed this was a comedy rather than “1940’s Greatest Drama”

Laughton is reported not to like children and left the directing of the two child actors to star Robert Mitchum (who was a father).
