The Crime of Dr. Crespi (1935)

[spiders-rob]

The Crime of Doctor Crespi is such a mix of unironically good and hilariously camp.

The camera work is honestly beautiful and inspired.

Oh man this revenge plot is (I think unintentionally) so homoerotic. Lemme just monologue at you all night inches from your face and leave your favorite flower on your grave after I've killed you. My man you could have simply flirted like a normal guy. Instead you had to get a little Gengis Khan and then go up to 1000 with it.

[that-one-stressed-person]

if you haven't seen a movie where he’s the good guy/gets a love interest, you could watch The Crime of Dr. Crespi! He’s one of the good guys of the movie, and he’s implied to get a pretty nurse gf at the end (he playfully/flirtatiously asks her “So, are you free later tonight?” or smth and she smiles and goes “oh, Dr. Thomas…” in an embarrassed yet def interested voice)

Just thinking now that Dwight Frye is one of the prettiest human beings I’ve ever had the pleasure of laying eyes on. Every single thing about him gives me butterflies!

And then Hollywood proceeds to cast him in roles where they purposefully try to make him look creepy or unattractive. Were they BLIND?!!

Flicker Alley presents IN THE SHADOW OF HOLLYWOOD - Highlights from Poverty Row

Flicker Alley presents IN THE SHADOW OF HOLLYWOOD – Highlights from Poverty Row

I remember having a conversation with one of my film history instructors years ago. The course focused on the history of the major film studios. One day I stayed after class to continue our conversation. Clearly, the subject at hand piqued my interest and I wanted to ask him all sorts of questions about the back stories of the studios that made the movies I so loved. “That’s all fine and dandy,”…

Dwight Iliff Frye (born Fry; February 22, 1899 – November 7, 1943) was an American character actor of stage and screen. He is best known for his portrayals of neurotic, murderous villains in several classic Universal horror films, such as Renfield in Dracula (1931) and Fritz in Frankenstein (1931).

Frye was born in Salina, Kansas and studied for a career in music and first appeared as a concert pianist.[1] In the 1920s, he made his name as a stage actor, often in comedies. In 1924, he played the Son in a production of Luigi Pirandello's Six Characters in Search of an Author.[2]

While he had a few minor comedic roles in silent pictures, with the coming of sound Frye soon became known for playing villains. Nicknamed "The Man with the Thousand-Watt Stare" and "The Man of a Thousand Deaths", he specialized in the portrayal of mentally unbalanced characters, including his signature role, the madman Renfield in Tod Browning's 1931 version of Dracula.

Later that same year, he played the hunchbacked assistant Fritz in Frankenstein. Also in 1931, Frye portrayed Wilmer Cook (the "gunsel") in the first film version of Dashiell Hammett's The Maltese Falcon. He had a featured role in the horror film The Vampire Bat (1933) in which he played Herman, a half-wit suspected of being a killer. He had memorable roles in The Invisible Man (1933) as a reporter, and in The Crime of Dr. Crespi (1935).

In Bride of Frankenstein (1935), he played Karl. The part was originally much more substantive; many of Frye's additional scenes were part of a subplot but were cut to shorten the running time and appease the censors. One of the deleted scenes was that of Karl killing a Burgomaster, portrayed by E. E. Clive. Nothing remains of these scenes except still photographs included in a Universal Studios DVD release of the film. He played similar characters in The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942) and Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943); another appearance in Son of Frankenstein (1939) was deleted prior to release. Also in the 1930s, he appeared in two films starring James Cagney: The Doorway to Hell (1930), as a hit man, and Something to Sing About (1937), as a fussy hairdresser.

During the early 1940s, Frye alternated between film roles and appearing on stage in a variety of productions ranging from comedies to musicals, as well as appearing in a stage version of Dracula. During World War II, he made a contribution to the war effort by working nights as a tool designer for Lockheed Aircraft.

On November 7, 1943, Frye died of a heart attack at the age of 44 while travelling by bus in Hollywood, a few days before he was scheduled to begin filming the biopic Wilson. He is interred in Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Glendale.

American rock band Alice Cooper wrote and recorded a tribute track to Dwight Frye entitled "The Ballad of Dwight Fry" (intentionally dropping the last "e") that was included on their 1971 LP Love It to Death.

On stage, this song would be portrayed with Cooper in a straitjacket trying to escape, and finally breaking free at the end of the song to strangle the nurse with the ties.

Devil Doll's 1990 album, Eliogabalus, features the photographed likeness of Dwight Frye in one of its booths.

Tom Cruise Ship Relinquishes Scientology.

The reason of the African Females in Cinema Weblog is to offer a room to discuss varied topics relating to African ladies in cinema-filmmakers, actors, producers, plus all film specialists. Unlike William Friedkin's 1970 film modification, which crams its reasonable set with traditional manuals and furnishings and also date-stamps the environment in a conspicuous chalk drawing significant 1968," the present Broadway revival presents a minimalist, abstracted staged globe, which has actually dumbfounded movie critics that have to have foreseed a manufacturing ruled through integrity to the period. I would certainly love to have a model of the Pong Time clock that operated on these boards as a choice to the Sure displays, which are actually a little difficult to get, have a goofy form-factor, as well as are actually poorly sustained in my experience.

Blaxploitation films glamourized being actually black, featured the trendiest dark girls of the moment as well as the best music. It had not been quite as glowing for von Stroheim after The Crime of Dr Crespi, however his behaving occupation recovered enough for him to show up in Jean Renoir's Le Grand Illusion (1937 ), acclaimed as one of the best films of perpetuity, as well as Sundown Blvd (1950 ), as Gloria Swanson's pantryman, Maximum. Coming from Josephine Cook's 1930s movies to Kassovitz's present-day presentations of combined identity I have discovered that French cinema has a different historical design template for exemplifying hybridity (located in a different racial ideological background).

Greetings Markus, I've simply uploaded the driver for the more mature style display screens to my google.com code page. A movie staff from the Division of Transportation is anticipated to be at Clitheroe Terminal to encounter our celebration on Wednesday's Community Rail Stroll as part of a film concerning Neighborhood Rail Collaborations. It is actually Dark Past History Month, which means there is actually actually no much better opportunity to view an excellent movie that catches the diverse stories of dark folks. Despite its several imperfections, MoviePass has made on its own a spot in cinema history. I do not think it can ever before be well-known in the States but I found a British foreign language launch a married couple years back as well as was actually certainly not amazed to find the film has had a longer service life in other aspect of the globe, and also the Soviet workers and performers who worked with the movie were actually very pleased with just how it emerged.

Little wonder von Stroheim, who believed every action and detailon-screen should signify for that characters, and who lost his directing career due for the attention he lavished to work, regarded The Crime of Dr Crespi as a genuine low point in his career.
