Or...one could also use my original Cinema Club post on this: http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=2397&forumID=1&archive=1 Oh my God, I appreciate links to other threads appearing on my posts. But to put a TCM recommendation with no heading at the end of someone else's thread of a film defeats the purpose of alerting people to *the film playing on T.C.M*! That is my main purpose here. One can, and perhaps you and Jim should, skip any post of mine altogether if they annoy you for not being included elsewhere or include links to one's blog, or are not responsive enough, etc. etc.

Never quite understood why this film is considered the best or one of the best film noirs. I mean, c'mon, Kirk Douglas is in it ferevvinsakes!

But to put a TCM recommendation with no heading at the end of someone else's thread of a film defeats the purpose of alerting people to *the film playing on T.C.M*! Well, we'll have to agree to disagree on that. But hey -- as long as I can continue posting links to previous, more informative threads on said film and score, I'm fine with you doing new threads. THOR: Your "...previous more informative threads on said film and score..." is unnecessary. I'll try again. The first and foremost purpose of my posts re TCM broadcasts is to alert people to the fact that the films are about to be aired on TCM. If I tag it on another post no matter how brilliantly informed it is, viewers will not be immediately alerted that the film is about to play on TCM (they don't even have to click on my post when they see the heading, much less my blog review of the film, they can go right to the TCM schedule).

I think you're exactly right; besides, I enjoy reading all of your posts. Thanks, so much for saying so, especially here.

As I said, Arthur, I have no problem with you creating new 'TCM alert' threads for these things, but I hope -- then -- that you can also appreciate some of us posting links to previous threads where more or less in-depth discussion about the film and score has been held. How generous of you. I certainly don't have a problem with you adding links to this type of thread. But I took a look at the link you added to this particular thread, and we will have to agree to disagree that your thread generated a meaningful "discussion," much less an "in-depth" one. Arthur, I find this type of alert thread very useful, indeed much more useful than the irrelevant nitpicking from the thread police wannabes, and appreciate the effort to let us know when some of these films are being shown. Please continue! Whether the thread then generates any further substantive discussion is, as far as I am concerned, merely icing on the cake. There should be room for a number of different types of threads on this board. NK

I too find it baffling that a few have found it necessary to criticise my posts for whatever reason but then return again and again.
