Marion Davies is most often associated with newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst, with whom she had a thirty-plus year relationship. Orson Welles used Ms. Davies as the template for his shrill gold digger, Susan Alexander, in Citizen Kane. The real Davies, an accomplished actress in her own right, was much more complex and tragic. A glimpse of that is captured in our next series of MPTv.net's George Hurrell galleries. Hurrell was the "Grand Seigneur of the Hollywood Portrait," a master of light and shade, the perfect portrait artist for the Golden Age of Hollywood. Our fourth installment in our Hurrell retrospective, with over 85 gorgeous photos, includes Davies, Laurence Olivier, a young Ray Miland, and Norma Shearer. (See Gallery 4)

IMDb Movie of the Day

Samuel Fuller was always known as a competent genre director. But in 1980 Fuller realized a 30-year dream with The Big Red One, an unconventional World War II film that many feel was his triumph (though others, like Martin Scorsese, hold his lurid Shock Corridor in high regard). Fuller was a member of the 1st Infantry Division (aka "The Big Red One") and the film is a testament to the survivors, "those who shot but weren't shot." The fiercest survivor in the film is The Sergeant, played with unchecked stoicism by Lee Marvin, who leads a collection of short-lived replacements, and his Four Horsemen (including Mark Hamill and Robert Carradine). Together they land in North Africa, Sicily, Omaha Beach, and engage in most of the European Theater of Operations. For such a big scale, it's the little things that make the difference in this film, like the practice of putting condoms on rifle barrels to keep them dry, or the disregard that the seasoned troops had for the new recruits, whose evanescence at the front made them not worth knowing. This film is worth knowing. ( more) (see the trailer) (Movie of the Day Archive)
