Thought For The Day...
Some people are like Slinkies...
They're not really good for anything,
but they still bring a smile to your face when
you push them down a flight of stairs.

| Quote: | | It is one of the most chilling moments in screen history. An old woman in a wheelchair is confronted in her apartment by a trench-coated thug. "I’m askin’ ya, where’s that squealin’ son of yours?" he says. Dissatisfied by the woman’s response, the thug rips the cord from a nearby lamp, ties the woman into the chair, then pushes her down a flight of stairs, maniacally cackling as she plunges to the bottom of the staircase and to the floor. It’s doubtful there is another scene in all of film noir as shocking in its cruelty as this moment in 1947’s Kiss of Death, and it’s doubtful any actor has ever made such a stunning impression in his movie debut as Richard Widmark did as Tommy Udo, the giggling psychopath of this classic thriller. Of his performance, The New Yorker wrote that Widmark has "the ability to make a perfectly good set of white teeth appear more alarming than any prop-department fangs Boris Karloff ever bared." |
