From what I understand, the script was never really complete at the start of filming so much of the film was ad-libbed or written on the fly. The results, of course, are pretty hilarious - that line being one of the best.Robby Cresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535820211830339224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943857813487857438.post-11770437570036562412011-05-12T08:16:48.036-07:002011-05-12T08:16:48.036-07:00Great post.

One of my favorite lines in any film is Cary Grant's ad-lib in His Girl Friday, when he describes Bellamy with, "He looks like that fellow in pictures...you know...Ralph Bellamy."old tophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06138436689132012265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943857813487857438.post-3812255908281444652011-05-08T12:23:09.700-07:002011-05-08T12:23:09.700-07:00Hi Judy,

Picture Snatcher is a fave! I think that Cagney film really holds up pretty well.Robby Cresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535820211830339224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943857813487857438.post-84053049471724180002011-05-08T12:17:34.228-07:002011-05-08T12:17:34.228-07:00I tried to leave you a comment yesterday but kept ...I tried to leave you a comment yesterday but kept getting an error message! Just to say that I also found this really interesting - great picture of Ralph Bellamy, which reminds me of how he looks in the pre-Code Picture Snatcher with James Cagney.

And he was still good even until the end. <br /><br />That's great to hear that Bellamy will be getting honored as part of TCM's "Summer Under The Stars." He definitely deserves it. Thanks for the tip about the Youtube interviews. I'll check it out.Robby Cresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535820211830339224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943857813487857438.post-29556210202804652152011-05-01T15:07:35.103-07:002011-05-01T15:07:35.103-07:00Oh, and I should also mention that Ralph Bellamy w...Oh, and I should also mention that Ralph Bellamy will be honored Aug. 7 as part of TCM's 2011 "Summer Under The Stars," the day after Lucille Ball gets a centenary tribute for her often-overlooked film career.VP81955https://www.blogger.com/profile/11792390726196611188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943857813487857438.post-68509291492170011722011-05-01T15:05:14.137-07:002011-05-01T15:05:14.137-07:00Wonderful story about Bellamy, an always-reliable ...Wonderful story about Bellamy, an always-reliable actor whether in comic or dramatic roles. (And he may well have been the only person to work on screen with both Jean Harlow and Julia Roberts!) YouTube has a multi-part interview with him that's well worth checking out.VP81955https://www.blogger.com/profile/11792390726196611188noreply@blogger.com
