TV EXEC: well it was an excellent pitch, but I guess I want to know: why are you the right one to tell this story?

TALKING HORSE: great question. The truth is, I grew up around people like these so-called “Beverly Hillbillies”

"The Naked City" (1948) - Rossellini meets Weegee in Jules Dassin's landmark of location shooting. Entertaining enough, but best viewed as the pulpy forerunner of a Dick Wolf police procedural, right down to Barry Fitzgerald's seen-it-all lead detective and the day players bringing the world to life

Microsoft’s little emblem in its desktop search bar today is supposed to be birthday boy Alexander Graham Bell and a telephone but all I see is a cannon pointing at his head Looney Tunes-style

“Stalag 17” (1953) - Proto-“Hogan’s Heroes” comedy/drama directed by Billy Wilder and set in a POW camp during Christmas 1944. Twisty thrills abound, William Holden cigar-chomps his way to an Oscar win, and any movie is made better with Sig Ruman in a supporting role. Add it to your holiday rotation

“White Christmas” (1954): The charms of the four leads are undeniable, the Technicolor pops, and you can’t go wrong with Michael Curtiz directing, but what always sticks with me is Dean Jagger’s tough, tender work as the major general. His arrival in the final scene is just beautiful stuff
