the stalking moon seemingly was meant to be a chilling suspenser, framed in a western environment. it does not achieve this goal, because of clumsy plot structuring and dialog and limp direction, which produces tedious pacing .
production: national general / stalking moon. director robert mulligan; producer alan j. pakula; screenplay alvin sargent; camera charles lang; editor aaron stell; music fred karlin; art director roland anderson, jack poplin
…mulligan reunited with peck on the stalking moon, a suspenseful western that starred the actor as a freelance scout who tries to protect a recently rescued white woman and her son from the latter’s apache father. although it failed to match the success of their earlier film, it still drew…

the same horse is ridden by the apache chief salvaje. (played by nathaniel narcisco) .
the other horrors in
the stalking moon
are of the same variety: the indian leaps out of bushes at peck, but only after peck poses in front of the bushes. we' re supposed to believe the indian is a wraithlike, superhuman figure who draws on centuries of craft and folklore to run rings around the white man. we' re supposed to fear him because he comes silently, without warning, a spirit in the night .
the trouble with
the stalking moon
is that it frightens us in all the regulation ways. eva marie saint goes into the bedroom, and a sinister arm reaches out and shuts the door behind her. so what? the scene was set up for that; we were expecting it. gregory peck and robert forster were up in the hills, and the old man was out of earshot, and so when eva marie saint went into the bedroom the indian was inevitably there waiting for her .

, is preferred by most critics (it is awfully good), but this is the first version of the story i ever saw, and so holds a special place in my heart. both of these versions use the alternate, less grim ending from christie’s stage play, rather than the bleak ending that closes the original novel, which might disappoint purists, but for me works in the films' favor .
there are many ways to go about getting just the parts of each layer that we want to show visible. we' re going to use one of the simplest routes: the deletion route with a little help from quick mask mode. what we are ultimately trying to accomplish is to isolate the subject in each frame by deleting everything around it except on the bottom layer, which will double as the background .

( we' ll get to that one in a moment) is certainly the most faithful to the character as described by christie, but i’ve always had a soft spot for peter ustinov’s subtly comedic, knowing take on the part. unlike finney, who disappeared so deep into the character under pounds of make up, hair appliances and theatrical mannerisms that he became unrecognizable, ustinov looks nothing like the poirot of the books and doesn’t really try to disguise that fact. the physical discrepancies hardly matter, though, as ustinov provides buckets of entertainment value in his fastidious, smug and witty performance. the actor is clearly having a field day in the part but importantly, what he does with it feels somehow true to the

there' s more than one way to capture usable images to composite together, but since this is just a primer we' re going to start with the most basic, easy way–by using a tripod. the idea is to keep the background of your image as consistent as possible to make editing easier. so choose a subject and action that will move across the path of your camera, so you don' t have to move the camera to capture the action. it will also ensure that the path of action stays true to reality in your finished image .

but the real acting honors go to sir guy standing, a prominent stage actor who came to hollywood late in his career. his stiff, military bearing and actual experience in the british navy made him ideal for parts as commanding officers, but the actor does a great job letting us see the deep, conflicting emotions the col. barely holds in check. sadly, standing' s promising screen career was cut short in 1937 when he died from a rattlesnake bite while hiking near his home in the hollywood hills .

while there' s definitely some good action to be found here (especially during the rousing climax), it' s brief and infrequent by action movie standards. the film proves to be less about adventure or even politics during the british raj than it is a character drama about codes of honor, friendship and fatherhood. these themes run throughout the movie, but it rarely comes off as heavy - handed or turgid, due to director henry hathaway' s light touch, the script' s cheeky sense of humor and the consistently wry, charismatic presence of cooper and tone. their prickly friendship, forged out of equal parts respect, competitive one - upmanship and soldierly bonds, proves the highlight of the film .

whether mulligan and sargent achieved what they set out to do with this film is hard to guess. in a story about a woman abducted by indians, they seem to have been after more realism than a similar western, comanche station (1960), reviewed here a while ago. and the result is strangely cool, a story told in a minor key, as is much of the music track. accounting for the fact that she is still alive, saint says to peck, “i didn’t have the courage to die. ” that desolate and traumatized tone pervades the movie .

i’ve read some article says that there are a number of picture styles which can be used when shooting in modes such as manual, aperture and shutter priority. the creative control modes can only be used as their own independent modes, but you can increase or decrease the level of their affect .

eastenders draws in over six million viewers each episode so producers thought redwater would follow suit and get at least three quarters of the audience .
as our camera and software technology improve, the opportunities to push the limits of our creativity grows exponentially. not that many of today' s techniques were not possible in days of film, but these advances make it less time consuming and more cost effective to create photographs that are outside of the box. such is the case with composite photography, that is combining multiple photographs into one image, which can produce some pretty cool effects when photographing moving objects such as athletes. here' s a quick primer to get you on your way to creating some great action sequence shots of your own .
once your edges are perfect, press “q” again to reveal your selection. now, hold down the “cntrl” key and press “j” on your keyboard to create a new layer from the selection. by default, this layer will be called layer 1, rename it to layer 2 copy to avoid confusion .

the ballad of narayama
is a japanese film of great beauty and elegant artifice, telling a story of startling cruelty. what a space it opens…
peck and saint do a fine job with their roles, as does a very young robert forster in matinee idol mode. most of the action takes place…
in many ways the spiritual precursor to the much better known gunga din, the lives of a bengal lancer is a rousing tale of heroism, friendship, and fidelity to a cause. based (very loosely) off the autobiography of francis yeats - brown, it' s not as opulent a production or nearly as action - packed as gunga din, but is still great fun to watch. despite being nearly 80 years old, it' s a fresh, breezy and engaging adventure, thanks to its timeless themes, affecting performances and witty script. (a lot of writers took a crack at crafting the script, including yeats - brown himself, with final

as you can see, the process itself isn' t too difficult, just very time consuming. the selection and masking process can take a long time but, it will become easier with practice. i find using a mouse, as opposed to my laptops trackpad, speeds things up and helps with my selection accuracy. as with any photoshop tutorial, these rules are not hard and set, feel free to experiment along the way and develop your own methods !

select the paint brush tool, we' ll use this to get our selection just perfect. by painting with a black brush (which will appear red), you are making your selection smaller. using a white brush will make your selection larger. zoom in close to your subject to decide which you' ll need to use. my selection was a little outside of the lines so i will use a black paint brush to “erase” the unwanted border around my selection .

during my long - ago sojourn in la i fell in love with kathleen gallant, who had a major role in the bravados. she was my friend, but was dating people like frank sinatra, and didn' t know how much i cared. i was an obscure wannabe trying to write screenplays and not bright enough to do it. she was dazzling, but the camera was not kind to her, and her career was short. she married dwight stuart of the carnation company .

perhaps something more rugged :
ever the faith endures / england, my england / take, break us, we are yours / england, my own / life is good; joy runs high, / between english earth and sky / death is death, and we shall die / to the song on your bugles blown / england / to the stars on your bugles blown .
if i' d known i was going to say all this, i' d have brought my violin .
, but it’s a very fine thing in its own right, and does an outstanding job unraveling all the meticulously laid out plot strands in a clear, entertaining fashion .
and i would like to give a big shout out to all the great bloggers who contributed to this blogathon. great job, guys and gals, and much appreciated !

rickerby (lloyd nolan), a veteran fed who was the dead agent' s mentor, makes a deal with hammer: he' ll provide intel and reinstate hammer' s gun license (and bring mike a sandwich !) and in exchange, hammer promises to find the dragon and turn him over, alive, within a week .
i saw the bravados again recently and didn' t like it as well as i remembered from when it was new. maybe knowing the ending ruins a 2nd viewing. in that film, peck gives a more focused performance, though it is still just a single note... tuska describes olsen as writing western noir fiction before it came into vogue .
i don' t recall ever seeing an adventure movie as masterfully paced as this one. as always, eva marie saint comes across as the kind of woman every...
