Neil Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 Preview/trailer of 16 minute video I'm just finishing up. I'm trying to make it Punchy Player-worthy but it's very HARD. This project started out just being a Baby Jane version of the Patty Duke Show son ("But They're Cousins" changed to "But They're Sisters") and once I started, I couldn't quit and came up with 7 potential episodes! This is just a short preview of the video I will post sometime during the next week, once I do all my nipping and tucking. I hope you like it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Hl7usPvVCg (Youtube message: "This video cannot be embedded". Didn't say why, so I don't think this link is going to work. Let me know. I will try again later today. They didn't take it down for 'copyright violation" so I don't know what the problem is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted June 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Here's the whole thing uploaded to my Dropbox. Can't figure out what youtube is doing. Note that "The Edwin & Deliah Show"'s theme is from "The Phyllis Diller Show" (after it switched nights and names) which was indeed sponsored by "Lark". https://www.dropbox.com/s/de9pol2nv4qqe6a/110-Those Hudson Girls.mp4?dl=0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted June 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 This Youtube upload should work, though I'm still getting the message: youtube doesn't allow embedding of this video. Never got that prompt before. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CY7B3WNew7k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodMcK1 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Maybe Blanche and Baby Jane should get jobs at Kramer's Candy Kitchen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 I don't think I'd eat anything packaged by Jane Hudson! I love how when she serves Blanche, first her dead bird and then the rat, that Jane takes the trouble of slicing tomatoes uniformly and displaying them in an attractive circle on the silver serving plate. BD's line: "All we ever see is that fat sister SLOUCHING around" is perhaps my favorite of the movie. Jane may be a lot of things but while certainly not svelte, she's not "fat" in the classic sense. A little problem with the movie's premise: It's been 27 years since the 'accident' ended her movie-queen heyday but evidently Blanche still has money from investments. Then WHY is she housed on the second floor with no way down? You'd think they'd 1) put in an elevator; 2) set up some room for her on the main floor; or 3) have moved into a single story house by now. I've always loved the scenes between Edwin and Deliah Flagg. We don't get to see Deliah's triumphant "I told you so" after Edwin returns from discovering what his "precious Jane 'Udson" has done. Though the movie is fraught with tension, I wouldn't call it "scary" like Vivian Bagley does. I wouldn't even classify it as a horror movie, which people often do. It's actually very well made, taking the time to draw out the characters. Example: the awkward attempt at conversation between Jane and Edwin after they meet. Jane: "Daddy used to play piano and banjo"......Edwin: "Oh......"----long pause while he thinks of something to say and comes up with....."you know it's interesting. The banjo is very native American instrument." "Baby Jane" tends to be lumped in with later horror schlock like Joan's "Berserk" and Joan's follow-up "Straight Jacket" which is full of cheap tricks, but Joan Crawford, the actress, gives it her ALL and I give her points for that. Willing to make a FOOL of herself, vamping her daughter's boyfriend, for example. Bette got most of the acting kudos for "Jane" but I think Joan's performance is matched in excellence. One credit I forgot: "Technical advisor for Blanche's bed-harness: Christopher Crawford". One only need to view the awful Redgrave sister's TV version (on DVD entitled "Whatever Became of......?" for some reason) to appreciate the art of the 1962 movie.

Freddie2 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Neil you've outdone yourself! I had to pause and rewind multiple times to catch every gag. Your revamped TV theme lyrics are always a brilliant treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
