Any interest in a "Star of the Month" discussion?

Hello all,

Is there any interest in some sort of "Star of the Month" discussion? I figure we could alternate focusing on silent and talkie stars from month-to-month. You could talk about your favorite films with that star, underrated gems, best quotes, cool memorabilia, etc. Anything is fair game, and "star" may be in the eye of the beholder.

If there is interest, I'll pick the first star and will fire up a new discussion within the next couple of days, so please let me know your thoughts below. Cheers!

Dave

Why not? We've had arguments....er hem...discussions on nearly everything else.

Sure. It'll be great to learn more about the stars. Looking forward to it.

Okay - the critics are enpaneled - so which star are we to get stuck into?

Yes, I like the idea of discussing the work of one performer (or director or screenwriter or whomever) over the course of a month. It would have an added benefit of putting a lot of info into one place, which would make research on that person easier. (Yes, there are scholars who use Nitrateville as a source of research -- or at least a starting place . . . )

So who do we start with?

I'm game.

I vote for starting with Mr. Tyler.

After your first pick, I vote for Lon Chaney (Sr.) given the time of year. Or perhaps deeper cuts like Peter Lorre or Bela Lugosi.

Naturally, the Great Man would have to come in there too!

I think it might be a good idea to alternate male and female stars.

Thanks, folks! I'll fire up a discussion in a day or two. (Hopefully this afternoon or evening!) I appreciate the enthusiasm!

Dave

Any discussion of El Brendel is fine by me!
