Big Valley Movie

JWBear · 04-29-2010, 09:05 AM

It seems that someone is making a movie version of the 60's TV series "Big Valley". Susan Sarandon will be starring.

Hmm. Maybe I should dust off that "High Chaparral" script.

Ok, when I saw the title, I was like NO WAY - Not without Barbara Stanwyck, or at least her skeleton propped up in the corner.

But, yeah, ok, Susan Sarandon is big enough guns for me.

(and now, fine, I can't get the theme music out of my head. grrrr.)

Is big guns? I must say I read that as "has" and had to agree. . Fine actress - lovely woman.

Who let her in?

I must admit that, with a few exceptions, Barbara Stanwyck has never done it for me so I don't have a problem with someone stepping into her shoes (but then it is also the case that with a few exceptions Susan Sarandon also does nothing for me).

No real opinion here as I haven't seen Big Valley since around the age of 10 when it stopped playing on the local independent station. But, at least at that age, it bored the hell out of me when my grandmother watched it.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one. I mean, I loved Double Indemnity but that's just about the only film of hers I love.... oh, and Stella Dallas I kinda like...

I had never noticed (or thought about) the similarity between these two women

Well, I only knew her from Big Valley and fell in love with her for that .... decades before I saw any of her films. She's awesome, the two of you on the planet who don't care for her are simply, well, there's no other way to put it - Wrong.
