Oscar O'Shea

Two Weeks to Live -- YouTube - Full movie (Flash)

Two Weeks to Live -- Abner believes he only has two weeks to live and takes on dangerous jobs, including piloting a rocket ship to Mars. Coupled with this is a bomb in a violin case, the foiling of a Nazi spy plot, and a haunted house. Breakneck pace with sight gags galore.

Oscar-honoree Myrna Loy and her "Thin Man" co-star Oscar-nominee William Powell star in this wacky romantic comedy about a dress designer who tries to break her sister's engagement to a free-living artist, only to discover the lout is falling for her instead.

Critics and fans agree: Stranger on the Third Floor is the little B picture that launched one of the greatest movements in cinemahistory: film noir. Peter Lorre plays the eerie title role in this once-neglected gem about a reporter (John McGuire) whosetestimony sentences a small-time loser (Elisha Cook Jr.) to the electric chair for murder. When the reporter himself is fingered ina second murder, he realizes both crimes are the work of a furtive stranger – but will anyone believe him? All the shadowy, shivery,angled angst of German Expressionism is here, married to the hard-boiled moral ambiguity that marks the genre. The highlight: asuspense-and-sweat-drenched dream sequence that jolted 1940 audiences into an exciting new way of looking at the movies.
