unlabelledView post →Another Schafer take of Hedy for Cecil B. DeMille’s Technicolor epic Samson and Delilah (1949), a massive critical and commercial success that became the highest grossing movie of 1950.
unlabelledView post →The Spirit from March 5, 1950. Art by Will Eisner & letters by Ben Oda. Apparently, Paramount threatened to sue Eisner over this parody of the 1949 film Samson and Delilah but never did.

Yes!) Joseph from the Old Testament (canonically homewrecker hot) Samson and Delilah (size difference couple)
unlabelledView post →Cecil B. DeMille had worked with Swanson several times before and, when we see him in the film, he’s on the actual set for Samson and Delilah, which he was shooting at the time. He charged $10k for his cameo and then a further $10k when Wilder wanted to do a close up. 40/48
unlabelledView post →Norma’s leopard print turban, Joes tiki-pattered swim shorts? Robbery. SB *also* features a glimpse of Samson and Delilah in production, the film that would go on to win the *colour* Costume Design Oscar that year! Also for Edith Head. The RIGGA-MORIS! 😆

unlabelledView post →btw the 1949 Samson and Delilah movie is predictably saggy here and there but the scene of pulling down the temple is terrific: George Sanders silently mouthing “Delilah” as he raises a glass to toast the falling pillar that’s about to turn him into marinara sauce. a 5-star scene in a 3-star film

unlabelledView post →Pencil sketch of Hedy Lamarr in Samson and Delilah (1949). I have been watching her movies recently. Drawing calms my nerves.
unlabelledView post →This show was so formative for me. I got the season sets when I was in middle school 20 years ago, so I binged the entire series back then. It basically set me down the path as a future film lover with all their references to golden age. What other show would parody Samson and Delilah like that?

When Norma Desmond (Gloria Swanson) visits DeMille at Paramount, they used his real shoot from SAMSON AND DELILAH in this movie- with Julia seen again as Hisham, this time greeting her old friend Norma! #classicmovies #filmhistory #juliafaye

unlabelledView post →I appreciated the old movie footage of Samson and Delilah, though I was half expecting the climax from Saint-Saëns' opera, which really slaps. (OTOH, it has all the Orientalizing Othering of the Philistines into some sort of sexy cult. For all that it's an over the top hoot, it's also slanderous.)

unlabelledView post →Oddly enough it was the second movie featuring dot painting as part of the story I've watched this year. The first was Warwick Thornton's Samson and Delilah, a terrific film. They are both quiet, slow and methodical films that demand your attention (even as one features a ska band).
unlabelledView post →One of the earliest actors I remember liking as a kid. Cried buckets at the end of Samson and Delilah. Love him now in Clementine, After The Fox, Long Haul and many others. Sometimes you just want a movie star to really look like a movie star.
unlabelledView post →I remember first seeing her in an old film (after Murder, She Wrote) when I watched Samson and Delilah as a child. She’s phenomenal in this.
unlabelledView post →I haven't seen any of them, but that sounds ace! The only other one that comes to mind is Samson and Delilah, which is one of my earliest film memories. Think i might line that up soon
unlabelledView post →Cecile DeMille produced and directed Samson and Delilah (1959) All of his money from the film went to erecting 10,000 Ten Commandments in stone everywhere…schools, courthouses, etc Later the Supreme Court’s decision to separate Church and State pulled them down

unlabelledView post →“Samson and Delilah” (1984) has a number of period film all-stars in small roles (Jose Ferrer, Max Von Sydow, Victor Mature). And also Daniel Stern in a major supporting role as a garrison commander and friend of Samson. D-tier Bible movies are casting fun.
unlabelledView post →When the think about it, the film Tangled is a kind of reverse Samson and Delilah. (Not really.)
unlabelledView post →This movie sort of has a cameo in Sunset Boulevard (1950) as well. When the character of Norma Jennings visits DeMille on the Paramount Pictures soundstages, the scene was shot on an actual set for Samson and Delilah.
unlabelledView post →You may think Castaway is bad or male gazey blah blah, but it’s a fairly solid film, Roeg and pompous criticism tossed aside. There’s only two films I don’t think are that great. Sweet Bird of Youth and Samson and Delilah. Everything else is brilliant. Heart of Darkenss in particular is fantastic.
unlabelledView post →I like to notice movie marquees within a movie. In War of the Worlds (1953) (free on Plutotv app), you can see a portion of the marquee that suggests that Samson and Delilah is playing at a fictional theater. Both movies are Paramount releases.

unlabelledView post →Before the release of “Samson and Delilah”, Groucho Marx was invited to the screening room by Louis B. Mayer to see it. When asked afterwards what he thought of the film he told Mayer it would be a flop. Asked why, he responded, “Because Victor Mature has much bigger knockers than Hedy Lamarr.”
