OK, nobody told me Una O'Connor was in this! Is there a hysterical Irish maid part? #WitnessForTheProsecution #TCMParty #30DaysOfOscar

I always enjoy Una O'Connor's presence in films because she reminds me of some of my older Irish relatives. #WitnessForTheProsecution #TCMParty #30DaysOfOscar

Charles Laughton just redefining the term "droll" in his delivery of all of his great lines in #WitnessForTheProsecution. #TCMParty #30DaysOfOscar

I'm not sure I've ever seen #WitnessForTheProsecution all the way through in one sitting (or it was so long ago that I can't recall) so I am here on jury duty for the #TCMParty. #30DaysOfOscar

Very clever subjective shot there of Sir Wilfred's view as he rides up the stairs, by Billy Wilder and the king of subjective camera, cinematographer Russell Harlan, who also shot the groundbreaking subjective bank robbery sequence in #GunCrazy #WitnessForTheProsecution #TCMParty #30DaysOfOscar

Hey, there's Hank Worden as the undertaker! You may remember him as Mose Harper in #TheSearchers or the world's slowest room service waiter in #TwinPeaks

Someone over on one of the FB groups is probably complaining that it's not "classic," but I do find it refreshing when @TCM pulls in more recent winners/nominees for their #30DaysOfOscar. There are still PLENTY of older films marking the celebration. #TCMParty

The three categories of cameo in #AroundTheWorldIn80Days, ranked from best to worst:
1. Here is some plot and/or exposition
2. Meta Humor by way of the performer's screen persona and/or personal history
3. Hey, it's whatsisname!

Kind of hilarious that a Frenchman created Phileas Fogg, the epitome of the English Gentleman (subclass Victorian) who is simultaneously (1) Extremely Proper and (2) Batshit Crazy. Congratulations, Jules Verne, you nailed it
