And I agree that Greer was still gorgeous in AGAINST ALL ODDS. When she filmed TWIN PEAKS, she was around 66 years of age and looked the same as she did in OUT OF THE PAST when she was in her early 20s. That look, as if she's always planning something and yet doesn't care if her plan works, was still there. Astounding! I could have watched her serve drinks to three men, who all subsequently died of apparent poisoning, and as soon as she handed me a drink and looked me in the face -- well, by golly, I would've had myself a drink if she just asked.sarkoffagushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00922698736476674377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-84676322537840809272009-09-13T17:34:03.096-04:002009-09-13T17:34:03.096-04:00Lady Eve do see The Big Steal and like us know wh...Lady Eve do see The Big Steal and like us know what you think.BTW if was mostly shot in Mexico, and pay attention.

What I love about Jane Greer is that she could project both feminity and toughness. Put another way, she could look stunning, but hang with the guys, too. I like the 1952 Prisoner of Zenda remake, but have this problem with it: Why is Robert Douglas's character pursuing Deborah Kerr when Jane Greer loves him? I mean, I'm a huge Deborah Kerr fan (as you know), but Jane's character loves him! And it's Jane Greer, for pete's sake.Rick29https://www.blogger.com/profile/08358116647815569722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-49048149165017667032009-09-13T12:22:50.574-04:002009-09-13T12:22:50.574-04:00Paul, I hadn't heard that but am not surprised...Paul, I hadn't heard that but am not surprised! I can't imagine any other female in the lead in THE BIG STEAL. Perhaps it's one time when Mitchum's predilection for a particular substance was a good thing.sarkoffagushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00922698736476674377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-25536149518761911172009-09-13T11:57:19.680-04:002009-09-13T11:57:19.680-04:00Sark , did you know that Lizabeth Scott was signed...Sark , did you know that Lizabeth Scott was signed to play the female lead in The Big Steal? But because of Bob's"Weed Problem" did not want to have anything to do with him. Jane was his pal and said why not.I've heard this Don Segal film called a "Screwball Film Noir" I just love it.Paul 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/11500682719536011343noreply@blogger.com
