    Question Back when I was a young lad mid- to late 1960s WWOR-TV in NYC used to run something called Million Dollar Movie They would play the same movie for the entire week I remember one movie that was based on the opera Carmen At the time of course I didnt know the movie was based on the opera I dont remember seeing it since then I only remember the last scene The male lead dragoon is about to be shot when the female lead Carmen I think gets in front of him and gets shot instead She dies in his arms and he dies shortly afterwards from an earlier injury then theres a rush of dragoons into the bandits hideout and the movie ends I thought it was the Rita Hayworth and Glenn Ford version of Carmen but when I saw that a few years ago it wasnt the one I remembered There have been several movies based on Carmen and I couldnt even tell you if the movie was foreign and dubbed If you have any idea about the movie an read more be the first to leave a comment

  • Lost: Who Were Those Pretty People? | Matt Roush | 3/29/2007
    As a happy distraction from our long national nightmare — make that bad joke — that is Sanjaya Malakar, can I just say that Lost blew me away Wednesday night? What an absolute treat of an episode, a clear sign that the show, after a stalled fall, is back in full throttle, back on its creative game and still more than capable of spinning a great, entertaining yarn.Weaving flashbacks that appeared to be posthumous but really weren't (more on that later) while providing clever new angles on classic Lost moments from previous seasons — including the immediate aftermath of the crash itself — this episode was also a welcome reminder that sometimes these producers really do seem to know what they're doing after all. We were silly, and unworthy, to have doubted them, don't you think? For all those times this season that we clucked and shook our heads whenever we spied the marginal beauties Nikki (Kiele Sanchez) and Paulo (Rodrigo Santoro), wondering (as Sawyer often sa... read more
  • When Bad Things Happen to Good Characters | Matt Roush | 9/25/2006
    Something seriously unfunny is happening on two of TV's most notable hour-long comedies, Desperate Housewives and Gilmore Girls. Not that either show is beyond rescue, but I fear it's going to take a while this season to extricate some heretofore favorite characters from the miserable corners they were painted into last season.Most infamously, Lorelai Gilmore (still, against the odds, effervescently played by Lauren Graham) is mired in an unpleasant situation that makes her overextended estrangement from daughter Rory a while back look like a walk in the park. Last season ended on a dreadful thumb-nosing note by departing series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino as Lorelai walked away from fiancé Luke after making an impulsive (some might say irrational) ultimatum, and then ended up in her former flame (and Rory's father) Christopher's bed. No good can come from this.In Tuesday's opener, Lorelai tells everyone who'll listen, "It's over." If only it were. Not Lorelai and Luke, but t... read more
