first off, thanks @more-than-tender-curiosity for getting this clip!
second off. second off… hoo boy. TWO INSTANCES OF JAY.
alan also sounds like he’s bouta cry which. yea. hugging him. he deserves hugs.
the natsby vibes in this? god. what did we do to deserve this—“why don’t you forget about her?”
the flinch. i am going to talk about the flinch. alan Hated gunshots. you can see this in the start of 1949, and also in a few other movies—Shane being a great example, when Shane shows off his gun to Joey. but why would he flinch here? there’s no gun—it’s just macdonald carey’s hand. is it a character thing or his acting? i don’t know, to be honest, and i desperately want to. he’d been punched in several other films by this point—The Blue Dahlia and The Glass Key, certainly, come to mind. but it’s just carey’s hand. i would say that the flinch—and the reasoning behind it—is probably up for personal interpretation.
and then. “LET/LEAVE ME ALONE.” i can’t very well tell if it’s let or leave me alone, and both would fit just fine. but his voice—his voice. i can’t remember exactly which other movies alan raised his voice in, perhaps The Carpetbaggers? but anyhow, it’s the same in 1949 as it is in whatever other movie he raised his voice for. it’s not bad, honestly.
and also the music at the end. movie composers in the 40s and 50s… i desperately think there should be more recognition of 40s & 50s movie composers.

so you're telling me 13 or 14 year-old Ponyboy read (and Darry owns!) The Carpetbaggers, the infamously sexually scandalous novel that contains homosexuality and this sibling relationship:

The Weekly Gravy #147
It looks like the Star Child is giving us a sly glance, as if to say, “You ain’t seen nothin’ yet.” 2010 (1984) – *** (Note that the subtitle The Year We Make Contact appears only in the promotional material; the actual film is simply titled 2010.) 2010 could be summed up as 2001, but shitty. Where 2001 is timeless, 2010 is firmly trenched in the Cold War. Where 2001 is mysterious, 2010 is…

The Scalawag Roy Eugene Barnes, the Disgraced Governor of Georgia, testified on behalf of Fanni Willis as a character witness of sorts this week regarding her corruption. He was the 80th Governor of GA. He is responsible for removing the battle flag from the GA state flag. He’s still a scalawag!
