I'm Gonna Git You, SUCKA! (1988) PARODY OF BLAXPLOITATION films such as Shaft. The Dean from Animal House was Mr. Big, the guy who was behind all the evil. So, this guy comes home from the Army, chest covered with ribbons, medals, and such, but none for combat. His mama is always fighting his battles, which embarrasses him to no end. His younger brother just died from wearing too much gold, & he wants revenge. Thoroughly over the top, and really funny.
Party Girl (1958) Noir in full color!? Muller himself addresses this question, & thinks it does indeed qualify. But, as it is set during the 1930s, I wonder. Anyway, Robert Taylor is the lawyer for Lee J. Cobb, who is the Capone-type mob boss. Cyd Charisse is Taylor's girl. All is well, until Taylor decides to quit being a mob lawyer, and seek less notorious clients. Then, the cops arrest him, demand he rat on his ex-client, & the woman becomes a target of extortion, if you talk, she will suffer, etc.
O.k., I never studied law, but it seems to me that attorney-client privilege ought to be in force, even after the attorney-client relationship ends.
Beside that, this was a fairly good example of a gangster film, though it did have a few dance scenes, as it was an MGM production.
The Sea Hawk (silent version) I only recognize 1 name in the credits,
Wallace Beery as Capt. Jasper Leigh.
Milton Sills as Sir Oliver Tressilian, a nobleman wants to marry the lady who lives in the castle next door, but, her guardian & brother are against it, because they consider him a pirate; though he does have letters of marque from the queen. These are the days when arguments and insults are settled by duels. So intense is the bitterness of the neighboring men, that the one attacks the guy's brother as they pass on the road. The brother kills the attacker in a fair fight, but without witnesses, it will be considered murder. The brother fears for his life, and pays WB to abduct the nobleman, and sell him into slavery, believing that his sudden absence will be presumed as guilt in the slaying. But, WB, though a lowlife, gives MS the opportunity to out bid his brother, which ends MS as oar slave in a Spanish Galleon.
Things happen, & there he is seated beside a Moor, things happen, etc.
This was a very good adventure film, and even when I realized that I had seen it before, I continued to watch it to its end.
