Look forward to reading your post on one of my favorite noirs.<br /><br />Thomas, a post on either of those films would be welcome. I wrote one up myself for BORN TO BE BAD and RUN FOR COVER, but the idea is to get cross-section of opinions on Ray and his films so the more the merrier. Don't know anyone who's doing A WOMAN'S SECRET (or THE HIGH GREEN WALL...I'll give extra credit for that one).Tony Dayoubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04632329277519635858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871549895931317151.post-35488297088408046772011-09-04T03:08:31.004-04:002011-09-04T03:08:31.004-04:00Has anyone mentioned doing a review on A WOMAN'...Has anyone mentioned doing a review on A WOMAN'S SECRET? I'd like to write one if no one else is. Otherwise, maybe RUN FOR COVER or something else. I wanted to do one of his more obscure ones, a movie that nobody else is bothering to cover. It's like some absurd variation on indie cred. No big deal either way though. :)Thomas Dukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00804326045764733280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871549895931317151.post-41376845756644046152011-09-03T19:07:50.368-04:002011-09-03T19:07:50.368-04:00Just stopping by to say that I'm looking forwa...Just stopping by to say that I'm looking forward to participating in your Nicholas Ray blogathon with a post on one of my favorite films noirs, "They Drive By Night."

I thought I hadn't seen you around. But I look forward to whatever you contribute on IN A LONELY PLACE, one of my very favorite Ray films.<br /><br />Sam, welcome back. I hadn't read your distinctive writing around these parts in quite a while. Hope you do find time to contribute to the blogathon, if only to hear your thoughts on one of the Ray rarities, BORN TO BE BAD. I'm jealous I missed it in NYC, but I think I found an alternate venue in which to see it, hee hee.Tony Dayoubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04632329277519635858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871549895931317151.post-67904482542634312182011-08-19T13:04:18.862-04:002011-08-19T13:04:18.862-04:00I will be seeing ON DANGEROUS GROUND this coming S...I will be seeing ON DANGEROUS GROUND this coming Saturday night at Manhattan's Film Forum as part of the currently running two-week long Robert Ryan Film Festival. Of course like just about everybody else including yourself I've seen this film many times over the years (it's a personal favorite)but it's always a treat on the big screen. However, more significantly, especially for Ray completists will be the single showing on Sunday, August 21 at 4:30 P.M. of the rare "Born To Be Bad", a title that hasn't even received a DVD release.<br /><br />I will be there with my wife, and hope to able to make some kind of valid contribution to your great project in some way.Sam Julianonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871549895931317151.post-27339096586170970502011-08-18T10:21:17.183-04:002011-08-18T10:21:17.183-04:00Tony - It's been a while since I've been b...Tony - It's been a while since I've been blogging, but I'm in the process of consolidating and getting back into the game, and will definitely be participating - IN A LONELY PLACE has fascinated me since seeing it as a young kid, and the chance to revisit and write about it is just too good to pass up!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13600990166210022027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871549895931317151.post-84147365552253891582011-08-17T10:47:12.181-04:002011-08-17T10:47:12.181-04:00I would like to participate.

Could I do The Savage Innocents? I have always loved that movie, and seemed to me to be an unusual choice for Ray. But then, he was an unusual man! Are you going to assign certain days and movies? And it sounds like you want participants to post on their own blogs and send you the links to post here at blogathon time, correct?
