Drama, film noir, Sally Parr, Patrick Waltz, Walter Reed
A young man in sits in prison on the night before his execution, while his girlfriend waits for the inevitable in the prison governor's house. The governor and his wife sympathize with both of them. It is the first use of the electric chair in the state, and there are teething problems with its installation. Meanwhile a group of reporters discussing the case, realize that the M.O. of the crime bears a similar style to that of a criminal, "Parrot" Farucco, who was supposed to have died three years previously. As the execution takes place off camera, a prison orderly collecting mail in the cafe identifies a customer as Farucco. He confronts him and is shot by the criminal, who is subdued and tied by other customers who happen to be prison officers waiting to begin work.
At the same time the reporters rush in, back from the prison to use the Post Office telephones. It turns out that the execution has had to be postponed owing to electrical problems with the chair. Farucco is brought into custody into the prison governor's office, and moved by the distraught girlfriend's grief, admits to the crime just in time to prevent the second execution attempt.

Beverly Hills Cop (1984) vs. Beverly Hills Cop_ Axel F (2024)_ A Legacy Reborn - SCC review
SCC on X: https://x.com/SuperCultCinema - https://x.com/CultModAnima
Introduction to "Beverly Hills Cop" (1984)
Directed by Martin Brest, "Beverly Hills Cop" is a quintessential 80s film that perfectly blends action and comedy, largely thanks to Eddie Murphy’s charismatic performance as Axel Foley. Axel is a street-smart Detroit cop who travels to Beverly Hills to solve the murder of his best friend. The film's success can be attributed to its sharp wit, memorable one-liners, and the infectious energy that Murphy brings to the screen.
The original "Beverly Hills Cop" not only catapulted Eddie Murphy to superstardom but also became a cultural touchstone, influencing countless films in the action-comedy genre. Its iconic theme song, "Axel F," composed by Harold Faltermeyer, remains one of the most recognizable movie themes to this day.
"Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" (2024) Overview
Fast forward 40 years, and we have "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F," directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah. Eddie Murphy reprises his role as Axel Foley, now a seasoned veteran facing new challenges in a modern Beverly Hills. This time, Axel is not only dealing with high-stakes crime but also navigating the complexities of an evolving law enforcement landscape.
The 2024 film brings in a mix of nostalgia and contemporary flair. It features a new supporting cast, including rising stars and some familiar faces, which adds a refreshing dynamic. The film's plot delves deeper into Axel's personal life, giving the audience a more intimate look at his character while still delivering the action-packed sequences and humor we expect from the franchise.
Comparing the Two
Character Evolution
In the original, Axel Foley is brash, impulsive, and unorthodox. His fish-out-of-water experience in the posh surroundings of Beverly Hills creates much of the film's humor. In "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F," we see a more mature Axel who has honed his detective skills but hasn’t lost his irreverent charm. This evolution feels natural and satisfying for long-time fans of the series.
Humor and Action
"Beverly Hills Cop" (1984) is a masterclass in blending humor with action. Eddie Murphy's improvisational style and the film’s sharp script provide non-stop entertainment. The 2024 film maintains this balance, with Murphy still delivering comedic gold. However, "Axel F" incorporates modern action set-pieces and special effects, which elevate the excitement but sometimes overshadow the humor.
Cultural Impact
The original film was groundbreaking for its time, influencing a wave of buddy-cop movies and shaping the portrayal of African American characters in mainstream cinema. "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" seeks to honor this legacy while addressing contemporary issues such as technology in policing and diversity in law enforcement. While it might not have the same groundbreaking impact as the original, it successfully bridges the old with the new, appealing to both long-time fans and a new generation.

Dishonored Lady (1947)
Dishonored Ladyis a 1947 American crime drama film directed by Robert Stevenson (director) and starring Hedy Lamarr, Dennis O'Keefe, and John Loder (actor). It is based on the 1930 playDishonored Ladyby Edward Sheldon and Margaret Ayer Barnes.
It is the story of a beautiful editor at a high-profile Manhattan fashion magazine who becomes a lively party girl at night.

Following his advice, she takes an interest in painting and meets a handsome neighbor.
Dishonored Ladywas released by United Artists in the United States on May 16, 1947.
Plot
Madeleine Damien is the fashion editor of a slick Manhattan magazine by day and a lively party girl by night. Unfortunately, the pressures of her job, including kowtowing to a hefty advertiser, and her bad luck with men are driving her to a breakdown. She seeks the help of a psychiatrist, and under his orders, quits her job and moves into a smaller flat under a new identity. She becomes interested in painting and a handsome neighbor. He soon finds out about her past when an ex-suitor implicates her in a murder.

Production notes
Production Dates: early May-late Jul 1946 at California Studios
The film is also known asSins of Madeleine.
In 1936, a US Federal Court said that the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer filmLetty Lynton(1932), based on a novel by Marie Adelaide Belloc Lowndes, also plagiarized the Sheldon-Barnes playDishonored Lady. This has resulted inLetty Lyntonbeing out of distribution since 1936.
Production of the film was supposed to begin no later than January 1945, however problems with the Hays Office delayed production until May 1946. The Hays Office insisted that two affairs-one in Mexico and one in New York-might be "overloading" the picture, and also objected to the "night of sordid passion."
A memo dated April 25, 1946 stated that, despite revisions, the script was unacceptable because of its gratuitous sex and its erences to Madeleine's unsavory family secrets. In the released version of the story, erences to Madeleine's parents were omitted completely. The character of Moreno and the affair in Mexico City were completely excised, and the "night of sordid passion" was not shown. All suggestions that Madeleine was a murderer, or had even contemplated murder, were also removed from the film. In a final studio synopsis in the Code file, Madeleine goes away on a trip hoping the time will come when David and she can be together; the reunion at the film's closing was added later.

Carnival of Souls (1962)
After a traumatic accident, a woman becomes drawn to a mysterious abandoned carnival.
Carnival of Souls is a 1962 Independent film horror film starring Candace Hilligoss. Produced and directed by Herk Harvey for an estimated $33,000, the film did not gain widespread attention when originally released, as a B-movie; today, however, it is a cult classic. Set to an organ (music) score by Gene Moore, Carnival of Souls relies more on atmosphere than on special effects to create a mood of unease and foreboding. The film has a large cult following and is occasionally screened at film and Halloween festivals. It has been cited as an important influence on the films of both David Lynch and George A. Romero.
Harvey was a director and producer of Industrial film and educational films based in Lawrence, Kansas, where he worked for the Centron Corporation. While returning to Kansas after shooting a Centron film in California, Harvey developed the idea for Carnival of Souls after driving past the abandoned Saltair, Utah Pavilion in Salt Lake City, Utah. Hiring an unknown actress, Lee Strasberg-trained Candace Hilligoss, and otherwise employing mostly local talent, he shot Carnival of Souls in three weeks on location in Lawrence and Salt Lake City.
Plot
Image:Candacehilligoss4.jpg
Mary Henry (Hilligoss) is riding in a car with two other young women when some men challenge them to a drag race. As they speed across a bridge, the women's car plunges over the side into the river. The police spend three hours dragging the murky, fast-running water without success. Mary miraculously surfaces, but she cannot remember how she survived.
Mary then drives to Utah, where she has been hired as a church organist. At one point, she can get nothing on her car radio but strange organ music. She passes a large, abandoned pavilion sitting all by itself on the shores of the Great Salt Lake; it seems to beckon to her in the twilight. Shortly thereafter, while she is speeding along a deserted stretch of road, a ghoulish, pasty-faced figure (billed as "The Man", played by director Herk Harvey) replaces her lection in the passenger window and stares at her. When The Man suddenly appears in front of her, she swerves off the road. At a gas station, the attendant tells her the pavilion was first a bathhouse, then a dance hall, and finally a carnival before shutting down.
Image:COS 04.JPG
In town, Mary rents a room from Mrs. Thomas; John Linden, the only other lodger, wants to become better acquainted with the blonde newcomer, but she is not interested. That night, she becomes upset when she sees The Man downstairs in the large house and retreats to her room. Mrs. Thomas, who brings her some food, says she did not pass anyone.
Soon, Mary begins experiencing terrifying interludes when she becomes invisible and inaudible to the rest of the world, as if she simply is not there. When The Man appears briefly in front of her in a park, she flees, right into the arms of a Dr. Samuels. He tries to help her, even as he acknowledges he is not a psychiatrist.
Her new employer, the minister (Art Ellison), is put off when she declines his suggestion of a reception to meet the congregation. When she practices for the first time, she finds herself shifting from a hymn to eerie music. In a trance, she sees The Man and others of his ilk dancing. The minister, hearing the strange music, denounces it as "profane" and insists upon her resignation.
Image:COS 10.JPG
Terrified of being alone, Mary agrees to go out on a date with Linden. When they return home, he smooth-talks his way into her room, but when she sees The Man in the mirror, she becomes upset and tries to tell Linden what has been happening to her. He leaves, believing she is losing her mind.
After talking with Samuels again, Mary believes she has to go to the pavilion. There, however, she finds no answers.
Other ghouls join The Man. Mary tries frantically to escape, at one point boarding a bus to leave town, only to find that all the passengers are ghouls. Then she wakes up, showing that she dreamed this sequence at least. In the end, she is drawn back to the pavilion, where she finds her tormenters dancing. A pale version of herself is paired with The Man. When she runs away, they chase her out onto the beach. She collapses, and they close in.
The minister, the doctor and the police are baffled. Her bare footprints in the sand (the only ones) end abruptly, but there is no trace of her.
In the final scene, the car is finally located and pulled from the river. Mary's body is in the front seat alongside those of the other two girls.

Safety Last! (1923)
Safety Last! is a 1923 American silent romantic comedy film starring Harold Lloyd. It includes one of the most famous images from the silent film era: Lloyd clutching the hands of a large clock as he dangles from the outside of a skyscraper above moving traffic. The film was highly successful and critically hailed, and it cemented Lloyd's status as a major figure in early motion pictures. It is still popular at revivals, and it is viewed today as one of the great film comedies.
The film's title is a play on the common expression, "safety first", which places safety as the priority to avoid accidents, especially at workplaces. Lloyd performed some of the climbing stunts himself, despite having lost a thumb and forefinger four years earlier in a film accident.
Safety Last! is one of many works from 1923 that notably entered the public domain in the United States in 2019, the first time any works have done so in twenty years.
The film opens in 1922 with Harold Lloyd (the character has the same name as the actor) behind bars. His mother and his girlfriend, Mildred, are consoling him as a somber official and priest show up. The three of them walk toward what looks like a noose. It then becomes obvious they are at a train station and the "noose" is actually a trackside pickup hoop used by train crews to receive orders without stopping, and the bars are merely the ticket barrier. He promises to send for his girlfriend so they can get married once he has "made good" in the big city. Then he is off.
He gets a job as a salesclerk at the De Vore Department Store, where he has to pull various stunts to get out of trouble with the picky and arrogantly self-important head floorwalker, Mr. Stubbs. He shares a rented room with his pal "Limpy" Bill, a construction worker.
When Harold finishes his shift, he sees an old friend from his hometown who is now a policeman walking the beat. After he leaves, Bill shows up. Bragging to Bill about his supposed influence with the police department, he persuades Bill to knock the policeman backwards over him while the man is using a callbox. When Bill does so, he knocks over the wrong policeman. To escape, he climbs up the façade of a building. The policeman tries to follow, but cannot get past the first floor; in frustration, he shouts at Bill, "You'll do time for this! The first time I lay eyes on you again, I'll pinch you!"
Meanwhile, Harold has been hiding his lack of success by sending his girlfriend expensive presents he cannot really afford. She mistakenly thinks he is successful enough to support a family and, with his mother's encouragement, takes a train to join him. In his embarrassment, he has to pretend to be the general manager, even succeeding in impersonating him to get back at Stubbs. While going to retrieve her purse (which Mildred left in the manager's office), he overhears the real general manager say he would give $1,000 to anyone who could attract people to the store. He remembers Bill's talent and pitches the idea of having a man climb the "12-story Bolton building", which De Vore's occupies. He gets Bill to agree to do it by offering him $500. The stunt is highly publicized and a large crowd gathers the next day.
When a drunkard shows "The Law" (the policeman who was pushed over) a newspaper story about the event, the lawman suspects Bill is going to be the climber. He waits at the starting point despite Harold's frantic efforts to get him to leave. Finally, unable to wait any longer, Bill suggests Harold climb the first story himself and then switch his hat and coat with Bill, who will continue on from there. After Harold starts up, the policeman spots Bill and chases him into the building. Every time Harold tries to switch places with Bill, the policeman appears and chases Bill away. Each time, Bill tells his friend he will meet him on the next floor up. Eventually, Harold reaches the top, despite his troubles with a clock and some hungry pigeons, and kisses his girl.
