The Bedford Incident

I used these two in another thread, but they apply here as well.

I also enjoy seeing these titles that I forgotten over the years. So many films and not enough time to view them.

Blake Edwards' S.O.B.



Not as successful as the Pink Panther series or "10", but brilliant none the less. It is famous for being the first movie to show Julie Andrews topless, but also Rosanna Arquette! It is also the great William Holden's last film! Last but not least, it is probably Robert Preston's best role, as physician to the stars, Dr. Finegarten.

Preston had the best lines:

Polly Reed: You're gonna let that SHYSTER on set?
Dr. Irving Finegarten: I could sue you for calling me that, Polly! A shyster is a disreputable lawyer. I'm a QUACK!

Dr. Irving Finegarten: Come to think of it, why should I give you a vitamin shot? I'm the one with the hangover. B-12, B-Complex, Crude Liver, and a generous jolt of adrenal cortex. Chased by a Bloody Mary. L'chaim! Now Lila, in order to inject this properly I have to expose my gluteus maximus.
Lila: Want me to do it for ya?
Dr. Irving Finegarten: Are you perchance a nurse?
Lila: No, but I used to be a junkie.
Dr. Irving Finegarten: Would it endanger your amateur standing if I asked you to use a sterilized needle?
Lila: You're the doctor.
Dr. Irving Finegarten: Oh, that's the nicest thing anyone's said to me all week.

Dr. Irving Finegarten: If he starts to levitate, don't panic; it's just a side-effect.

Dr. Irving Finegarten: Is Batman a transvestite? Who knows?

I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.
