Beyond the Blue Horizon (1942)
I miss that scene, too
I, too, have wished for years that I could see this movie again. I was about eight when I saw it. Richard Denning, as Jackra, did lure the renegade elephant to follow him to a cliff. He swung out over the cliff on a vine, ala Tarzan, and the elephant charged over the cliff. I seem to remember he had a tame lion or tiger that had jumped on the back of the elephant, but that was thrown to its death. I probably cried at that. This scene has stuck in my mind for more than 50 years, and I would really love to see it again. I could remember the title, but never could find a plot summary that mentioned this scene.
Since You Went Away (1944)
This is a movie for all who appreciate family
I watch this movie every time it comes on. And I cry like a baby, just as I did the first time I saw it. Now that I am older, I cringe a bit at the way Hattie McDaniel's character is depicted, but I understand the time in which it was made. One of my favorite scenes is when she so easily guesses Colonel Smollett's charade that had everyone else puzzled. Another great scene is when Claudette Colbert finally tells off Agnes Moorhead. This movie is so good, that although we never see Tony Hilton, we feel as if we know him well because of Ann and the girls. They don't make movies like this anymore, which is why I don't go anymore.
