Movie Clip

Brass Target (1978) -- (Movie Clip) In Case They Have To Bury Me On location, Lake Geneva, for the introduction of Max Von Sydow as assassin Shelley, found by crooked American officer McCauley (Patrick McGoohan), looking to have General Patton (George Kennedy, photo) knocked off before he finds out who stole the Allied gold shipment, in Brass Target, 1978.
Scenes From A Marriage (1973) -- (Movie Clip) Innocence And Panic Writer, director and producer Ingmar Bergman, opening his project created as a short series for Swedish television, uses an interview for a women's magazine to introduce Marianne (Liv Ullmann) and Johan (Erland Josephson), in Scenes From A Marriage, 1973.
Overlord (1975) -- (Movie Clip) Good Luck, Son Young Tom (Brian Stirner) hurries home to Mum and Dad, before his departure for war, which is then inter-cut with various documentary footage, in writer-director Stuart Cooper's Overlord, 1975.
Overlord (1975) -- (Movie Clip) Opening, A Film By Stuart Cooper A good deal of darkness and some silence before writer and director Stuart Cooper begins his complex introduction of sound, music, documentary and original footage in his 1975 World War II drama Overlord.
Morgan The Pirate (1960) -- (Movie Clip) The Beast Is English Opening from Hollywood renegades, producer Joseph E. Levine and director Andre De Toth, working in Italy, cinematography by Tonino Delli Colli, brings French Valérie Lagrange (about 18 at the time!) and her attendant Lydia Alfonsi to the slave market in Panama where the main attraction, Steve Reeves, the title character, looks buff, in Morgan The Pirate, 1960.
Morgan The Pirate (1960) -- (Movie Clip) I Want These Women We meet Chelo Alonso, highly promoted in the credits, appearing in her second Italian-made feature with leading man Steve Reeves, as barmaid Consuela, beholden apparently to pirate L’Olannais (Armand Mestral), who receives the hero, with his new pirate crew, in time to rescue hostages Valérie Lagrange and Lydia Alfonso, in Morgan The Pirate, 1960.
Hooper (1978) -- (Movie Clip) I Won't Do Any Acting After suiting up in the credits, star Burt Reynolds (the stunt-man title character Sonny) roars down to the set where Robert Klein is the director, Adam West plays himself as the star he’s doubling-for, and James Best his buddy Cully, with Burt pal and legendary stunt man Hal Needham directing, in Hooper, 1978.
Brass Target (1978) -- (Movie Clip) A Friend In The Right Uniform John Cassavetes as grizzled Major Joe DeLucca in post-War Germany, inquiring about stolen Allied gold meets unhinged alcoholic fixer Col. McCauley (Patrick McGoohan), who has acquired his Polish ex-girlfriend Mara (Sophia Loren), her first scene, in Brass Target, 1978.
Brass Target (1978) -- (Movie Clip) Up Your Sweet Red Commie... Profane especially for the period but full marks to George Kennedy, in high octane portrayal of General George Patton, in post-War Germany, tangling with a fictional Russian general (Reinhold Olszewski) over military justice and stolen Allied gold, in Brass Target, 1978.
Swing Shift (1984) -- (Movie Clip) Women War Workers Director Jonathan Demme uses a short-subject to introduce Kay (Goldie Hawn) to the idea of taking a job now that her husband’s gone to war, meeting her neighbor Hazel (Christine Lahti) at the Santa Monica plant, with whom relations have thus far been chilly, in Swing Shift, 1941.
Brass Target (1978) -- (Movie Clip) Did You Find Someone Else? Nice scene though maybe too sentimental for either of these actors, certainly by 1978, as American Major DeLucca (John Casavettes), investigating corruption in post-War Germany, tries to waylay Polish ex-girlfriend Mara (Sophia Loren), departing Frankfurt, in Brass Target.
Gallipoli (1981) -- (Movie Clip) As Fast As A Leopard Peter Weir’s opening in western Australia, 1915, introduces Mark Lee as sprinter Archy, Bill Kerr as his coach and uncle Jack, later pal Zac (Charles Funipingu) and enemy Les (Harold Hopkins), opening the war epic Gallipoli, 1981, also starring Mel Gibson.
