After the Cinemascope version of Oklahoma ! (1955) [from the two-disc collector's edition, but without using the sing-along sub-titles], finding that James Dean (and Paul Newman) tried out for the part of Curly (Gordon MacRae), and that - in 1906 - Oklahoma was but a Territory. pic.twitter.com/Kv9jElDkpt— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) December 29, 2017
I thought I may pass out from boredom while watching this @BFI for the first time last weekend... apart from Gloria Grahame’s appearances. No interval.— michelle (@best2vilmabanky) December 30, 2017
Very wise - these films were not made with the intention of seeing them through without a break !— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) December 30, 2017

A crude stereotype of opera-goers by custom is if not being jolted awake by an act's final cadence, then living for the well-known arias :— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) December 30, 2017
Can we any more imagine now how an audience reacted to a film released in 1955 (with a seemingly obligatory scene of ladies in lingerie ) ?
To an extent, I also made my own entertainment with the film, spotting what had been shot on a sound-stage, and also following the movement of the camera and how the shots were put together...— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) December 30, 2017
The dream-sequence in Oklahoma ! (1955) - sure some inspiration to Woody Allen with Deconstructing Harry (1997), and Larry (Billy Crystal), presiding over the infernal regions... pic.twitter.com/ae2HCg0okq— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) January 2, 2018
