Movie Clip

Cry Of The Werewolf (1944) -- (Movie Clip) She Struck Her Husband Down Joining the terrific commentary (voicing over historical footage) by tour guide John Abbott at a New Orleans occult museum, we get a look at top-billed Nina Foch in a painting, then we meet the janitor and the proprietor (Ivan Triesault, Fritz Leiber), then visit the real Nina, a gypsy princess, attended by Blanche Yurka, early in Cry Of The Werewolf, 1944.
Cry Of The Werewolf (1944) -- (Movie Clip) It Is Your Destiny We haven't seen top-billed Nina Foch for 20-plus minutes in this 63-minute feature but now she's back, as New Orleans metro-area Gypsy princess and pretty-sure werewolf Celeste, visited by janitor Jan (Ivan Triesault) whom the cops have all-but nailed for her last murder, leaving her little choice, with counsel from Blanche Yurka, in Columbia's Cry Of The Werewolf, 1944.
Cimarron (1960) -- (Movie Clip) They Called It Oklahoma Text opens the Edna Ferber novelization of the settlement of Oklahoma, introducing Kansas City immigrant Sabra Venable (Maria Schell) and parents (Ivan Triesault, Lili Darvas), who refer us to Glenn Ford, who is Yancey “Cimarron” Cravat, in Anthony Mann’s update of the 1930 Best Picture winner, Cimarron, 1960.
Cry Of The Werewolf (1944) -- (Movie Clip) It Is Your Destiny Janitor Yan (Ivan Triesault), wrongly suspected of a murder committed by werewolf gypsy princess Celeste (Nina Foch), appeals to her for mercy, her guardian Bianca (Blanche Yurka) counseling, in Columbia's Cry Of The Werewolf, 1944.
Song To Remember, A -- (Movie Clip) Such Tones From A Piano Prodigious playing by off-screen young Chopin, as teacher Elsner (Paul Muni) joins his parents (Ivan Triesault, Fay Helm) in their humble Polish home, early in Columbia's A Song To Remember, 1945.
