Favorite Moments: The Hospital

More favorite moments as I search for the meaning of life. Forgive the abundance of them but I plan on putting them up whenever I feel the itch to do so and this weekend as I prepare for a vacation, a gallery opening (more on that Monday or Tuesday) and a hell week at work I give you two favorite moments of mine from the movies. First this one from The Hospital, Network's neglected step-child (or should that be step-father since it came first?). George C. Scott is superb (that's probably needless to say but I said it anyway) as the doctor going through a somewhat late mid-life crisis.

Tomorrow, a very short favorite moment from a movie that I've been seeing all over teh intranets lately and since it's a favorite of mine I figured I'd jump in the fray. If you haven't seen it I'm not sure if the favorite moment will do anything for you. If you have seen it, and therefore know everything that immediately preceded the scene, then you'll understand why I find it so funny - and so perfectly done by the actor in the scene. But that's all I'm saying for now, you'll see it tomorrow.

Stars on Stage III: One More Guessing Game

Okay, this is the last Stars on Stage for a while, promise. Anyway, this is a still from a production of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman. We all know, or should, that that's George C. Scott front and off-center as Willy Loman. The question is who are the three actors behind him. Sure you can google it but can you guess without googling? All three are famous film actors. The one in front is the least famous with the least amount of big films to his name but the two in back are quite famous indeed with many a big film. The one all the way in the back is so covered in shadow it would be impossible to guess without prior knowledge but try anyway.
