Saturday Night Cinema
The 39 Steps

Hitchcock's The 39 Steps. Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll are terrific.  The 39 Steps is the first in a line of Hitchcock films based upon the idea of an innocent man on the run, including Saboteur (1942) and North by Northwest (1959). Can you find Hitch's cameo? :)

Can you find Hitch's cameo?

Why do I have a bad feeling I'm going to be up at two in the morning looking for it.

OT: Archbishop of Canterbury (who is not a Catholic) tells British Muslims US worse imperialists than Britain ever was.

what a butt-munch


Okay, Hitchcock appears late in the opening scene just as Robert Donat has left the theater with the strange woman and both are walking towards a bus. Just before Donat steps on the bus, Hitchcock appears (dressed in a heavy overcoat)walking from left to right just in front of Donat. You see Hitchcock's right profile for all of about 2 seconds.

Probably my favorite Hitchcock movie.

There is a second cameo at the end. Hitchcock is the theater manager and he attempts to calm down the crowd - a speaking part! Both cameos are notable because they show Hitchcock before he really went bald.

Ayn Rand at 100: "Yours is the Glory"

  • Aynrandstamp_1

  • Speaking to the unnamed, unchampioned, beating heart of her new land, Ayn was to say: 'Yours is the glory.'"
    A man whose ability and independence leads others to reject him, but who perseveres nevertheless to achieve his values. Man as an individual, as a creator. What's the most depraved type of human being? Not a sadist or a murderer or a sex maniac or a dictator; "The man without a purpose." Yet most people seem to go through their lives without a clearly defined purpose.

  • Life has Loveliness to sell,
    All beautiful and splendid things,
    Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
    Soaring fires that sways and swing,
    And children's faces looking up,
    Holding wonder like a cup

    Life has Loveliness to sell,
    Music like a curve of Gold,
    Scent of pinetrees in the rain,
    Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
    And for your spirit's still delight,
    Holy stars that star the night.

    Spend all you have for loveliness,
    Buy it and never count the cost;
    For one white singing hour of Peace
    Count many a year of strife well lost
    And for a breath of ecstasy
    Give all you have been, or could be.
