Movie Clip

Beauty And The Beast (1946) -- (Movie Clip) Once Upon A Time Imaginative opening sequence from director and writer Jean Cocteau, from Beauty And The Beast, 1946, starring Josette Day and Jean Marais.
Sisters (1973) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Peeping Toms Ever outrageous and toying with his audience, director and co-writer Brian De Palma’s opening from his early independent feature, Sisters, 1973, with then-provocative fetus images, then Margot Kidder and Lisle Wilson in a scene that is not what it first appears to be.
La Bete Humaine (1938) -- (Movie Clip) I Don't Want People Looking At Me! A train, of all things, interrupts engineer Lantier (Jean Gabin) when he gets carried away, while visiting hometown sweetheart Flore (Blanchette Brunoy), in Jean Renoir's La Bete Humaine, 1938.
Rules Of The Game (1939) -- (Movie Clip) Mingling Of Two Whims The radio report of her flier-boyfriend's proclamation of love still playing in the background, Christine (Nora Gregor) visits her unfazed husband the Marquis (Marcel Dalio), who then rings his mistress (Mila Parely), gossip continuing, early in Jean Renoir's Rules Of The Game, 1939.
La Bete Humaine (1938) -- (Movie Clip) Lantier, Le Havre After a prologue, cribbed from the original Emile Zola novel in his Rougon-Macquare cycle, the headlong opening scene from director Jean Renoir, in La Bete Humaine, 1938, much of it shot by the director's nephew Claude, in which Lantier (Jean Gabin) and Pecqueux (Julien Carette) bring their train into Le Havre.
La Bete Humaine (1938) -- (Movie Clip) You Men Are Disgusting Wild shifts of tone and content as conversation turns to confrontation between corrupt husband Robaud (Fernand Ledoux) and young wife Severine (Simone Simon), after her shopping trip, in Jean Renoir's La Bete Humaine, 1938.
La Bete Humaine (1938) -- (Movie Clip) The Heat Was Unbearable Much tension as Robaud (Fernand Ledoux) and Severine (Simone Simon) commit a quick off-screen murder on a train, then realize off-duty engineer Lantier (Jean Gabin) is a witness, in Jean Renoir's La Bete Humaine, 1938.
Human Desire (1954) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Better Than Korea Director Fritz Lang’s opening is more than similar to the one Jean Renoir shot for his 1938 version of the same Emile Zola novel (La Bete Humaine), engineer Glenn Ford with partner Edgar Buchanan, in Human Desire, 1954, with Gloria Grahame and Broderick Crawford.
Human Desire (1954) -- (Movie Clip) Big Men Like Him First scene for Gloria Grahame as "Vicki," her husband Carl (Broderick Crawford) arriving home from the rail yard to tell her he's been fired, in Fritz Lang's Human Desire, 1954, from an an Emile Zola novel also filmed by Jean Renoir as La Bete Humaine.
Human Desire (1954) -- (Movie Clip) Do I Look Nervous? Vicki (Gloria Grahame) on the train, coerced by her husband (Broderick Crawford) to help conceal the murder he's just committed, by distracting off-duty engineer Jeff (Glenn Ford), in Fritz Lang's Human Desire, 1954.
Human Desire (1954) -- (Movie Clip) That's Railroadin' Director Fritz Lang with some exposition, engineer Jeff (Glenn Ford) just back from Korea, wrapping up a shift with buddy Alec (Edgar Buchanan) and the boss (Carl Lee), spotting old acquaintance Carl (Broderick Crawford), in Human Desire, 1954, from an Emile Zola novel.
Boogie Doodle (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Boogie By... The opening of celebrated animator Norman McLaren’s experimental collaboration, his drawn-on short film with jazz pianist Albert Ammons, released by the National Film Board of Canada in 1940, Boogie Doodle.

Trailer

Freebie And The Bean (1974) -- (Original Trailer) Original TV trailer with lots of schtick from stars Alan Arkin and James Caan, and supporting player Alex Rocco, from director Richard Rush’s genuinely screwy action-comedy Freebie And The Bean, 1974.
