Angie Dickinson, Dean Martin, and John Wayne Behind the Scenes of Rio Bravo

January 11, 2022 By Joi

Dean Martin and Angie Dickinson, Behind the Scenes of Rio Bravo

Dean Martin and Angie Dickinson

Rio Bravo isn’t just one of my favorite Westerns, it’s one of my favorite movies. Period. I simply love everything about it from start to finish. The cast, the story, the dialogue, the directing, the wardrobe… everything.

Angie Dickinson’s “Feathers” is one of my favorite movie characters – her portrayal is absolute perfection. Given that the actress was so young, it would have been easy for her to have been overwhelmed by being surrounded by such veteran talent, but she not only fit in beautifully, she stole more than a few scenes to boot!

Angie Dickinson and Gregory Peck: Captain Newman, M.D. (1963)

September 18, 2021 By Joi

Angie Dickinson and Gregory Peck, Captain Newman MD

Angie Dickinson and Gregory Peck

As I’ve been known to bellyache about before (and will again), many films and stars from the 50s-70s often get lost in the shuffle. Old Hollywood fans often gravitate toward the 20s-40s and modern movie fans often don’t venture from the 90s-today. When they DO “go back” to what they consider old Hollywood, it’s often the 80s.

The sad thing is, there are a wealth of wonderful movies, stars, and performances from 1950-1979 – dare I say it? Yeah, why not. There is just as much magic and fun to be had during this time as before or after this time.

Infinitely so!

Angie Dickinson and Gregory Peck are two of the many stars I love most during the 50s, 60s, and 70s. The wonderful Gregory Peck, of course, made some extraordinary movies in the 40s as well whereas the younger Angie Dickinson didn’t come onto the scene until the 50s.

Captain Newman, M.D. is a highly entertaining movie starring both of these talented stars as well as a few other names I’m sure you know… Tony Curtis, Eddie Albert, James Gregory, Robert Duvall, Dick Sargent, and Bobby Darin.

Directed by David Miller, Captain Newman, M.D. has the distinction of being the rare “War Comedy Drama.” The comedy part seems kind of out of place for a war movie, doesn’t it? However, the movie brilliantly, aptly, and perfectly intertwines drama and comedy – the latter making the former much easier to handle.

If you’ve never seen this one or if it’s been awhile, I hope you’ll find it and revisit the colorful cast.

You can find Captain Newman, M.D. on dvd on Amazon.

Angie Dickinson and John Wayne (Love this Rio Bravo Publicity Photo!)

September 14, 2021 By Joi

Angie Dickinson and John Wayne, Rio BravoAngie Dickinson and John Wayne, Rio Bravo

John Wayne deliberately stepped away from westerns after The Searchers (1956) and made The Wings of Eagles, Jet Pilot, Legend of the Lost, I Married a Woman, and The Barbarian and the Geisha (a movie we John Wayne fans pretend doesn’t exist!). None of these films were as successful as his westerns – although several were quite good. Rio Bravo marked his triumphant return to westerns.

You can find Rio Bravo on dvd (Amazon link) or watch the movie on Prime Video.

Angie Dickinson, The Killers (1964)

August 30, 2021 By Joi

Angie Dickinson, The Killers Angie Dickinson

Angie Dickinson, Ronald Reagan, Lee Marvin, John Cassavetes, Claude Akins, Norman Fell, and Clu Gulager lead a very strong cast in the 1964 drama The Killers. Due to the popularity of the 1946 film-noir The Killers (Ava Gardner, Burt Lancaster), I always wish the powers that be had given this film a different name. Maybe it’d be more popular if it weren’t in the shadow of the other film.

While this film is a remake, it is told from a different viewpoint and has a very different atmosphere and tone. I love it and wish more people would see it.

Angie Dickinson, Glenn Ford, and Chad Everett in The Last Challenge

June 23, 2021 By Joi

Angie Dickinson and Glenn Ford: The Last Challenge Lobby Card

Angie Dickinson and Glenn Ford, The Last Challenge 

While I am a bona fide Westerns fanatic AND one of Angie Dickinson’s most devoted fans, I only saw The Last Challenge in the last few years. I have no idea why, actually… I guess I don’t quit watching and rewatching John Westerns long enough to venture out! Seriously, I just rewatched The Sons of Katie Elder for, like, the sixth time and that’s no where near as often as I’ve seen Rio Bravo, El Dorado, The Trian Robbers, Stagecoach, or The Searchers!

The Last Challenge is a very good western and I love the three leads – Angie Dickinson, Glenn Ford, and Chad Everett. There’s just something very agreeable about Glenn Ford in a western and the same can be said about Angie Dickinson. I also love Chad Everett in his role. I have to admit, sentimentally, I wish the film had gone in the direction I personally wanted it to but fairy tales don’t often play out in the old west. Nor should they.

I often have to remind myself of this very thing when I’m caught up in the middle of a great western and this is most certainly a great one.

Angie Dickinson and Ronald Reagan, The KillersAngie Dickinson and Ronald Reagan

Angie Dickinson, Ronald Reagan, Lee Marvin, John Cassavetes, Claude Akins, Norman Fell, and Clu Gulager star in the 1964 drama The Killers, directed by Don Siegel.

In this, his final film, Ronald Reagan played a bad guy (for the first time in his career). He reportedly hated doing it!

Angie Dickinson: Jessica Promotional Pictures (Beautiful!)

June 9, 2021 By Joi

Angie Dickinson, Jessica

One of my favorite actresses is pictured here… the beautiful and brilliantly talented Angie Dickinson. My first Angie Dickinson film was Rio Bravo and I’ve been a huge fan since. I love her as Pepper on Police Woman and have loved her in each of her movies including the one represented with these promotional pictures, the 1962 romantic comedy Jessica.

Angie Dickinson, Jessica

Angie Dickinson, Jessica

If you aren’t familiar with Angie Dickinson in movies, I hope you’ll search out some of her films and check them out. If you like westerns, you HAVE to see Rio Bravo (1959) and The Last Challenge (1967), Shoot-Out at Medicine Bend (1957), and Sam Whiskey (1969).

Rom-Com fans will love Jessica – Angie Dickinson makes the perfect leading lady for any movie and this one is no exception.

Angie Dickinson: Captain Newman, M.D. Promotional Photo (1963)

April 18, 2021 By Joi

Angie Dickinson, Captain Newman, M.D.

Angie Dickinson

Angie Dickinson, Gregory Peck, Tony Curtis, Eddie Albert, James Gregory, Robert Duvall, Dick Sargent, and Bobby Darin are among the stars that make the wonderful (but, frustratingly, not very well-known) Captain Newman, M.D. extra special and highly entertaining.

Directed by David Miller, Captain Newman, M.D. (1963) is a war drama that also has many comedic elements to it. It reminds me a great deal of MASH in this regard.

If you’ve never seen this one OR if it’s been awhile, I hope you’ll find it and spend a little time with a very, very talented cast.

You can find Captain Newman, M.D. on dvd on Amazon.

Angie Dickinson: Gorgeous Promotional Pictures for Rio Bravo

January 18, 2021 By Joi

Angie Dickinson, Rio Bravo

Angie Dickinson, Rio Bravo

I’ve already gone on (and on and on!) about how much I love Rio Bravo (1959), Feathers, and Angie Dickinson on the blog (as well as Twitter and everywhere else I frequent), so I’ll just keep it short and sweet and share these amazing photos with you.

Angie Dickinson is, understandably, known by most as Pepper in classic TV’s wonderful and ground-breaking series Police Woman. She has,  however, an excellent filmography to her credit as well, including the iconic and much-loved Rio Bravo. Her character “Feathers” is one of the best female characters in any western and one of the reasons this particular one is such a favorite of so many (including me).

You can find Rio Bravo on dvd (Amazon link) or watch the movie on Prime Video.

Angie Dickinson and John Cassavetes in The Killers

Angie Dickinson and John Cassavetes in The Killers

Angie Dickinson and John Cassavetes 

Angie Dickinson, Ronald Reagan, Lee Marvin, John Cassavetes, Claude Akins, Norman Fell, and Clu Gulager star in the 1964 drama The Killers, directed by Don Siegel. This film is a remake of the iconic 1946 film with the same title, starring Burt Lancaster and Ava Gardner. This one is told from a different viewpoint and has a very different tone overall. Personally, I’m a very big fan of both films.

After John Cassavetes was cast in the role of race car driver Johnny North, director Don Siegel discovered the actor could barely even drive a car. That had to have added a whole new kink to the chain!
If you’ve never seen this film, I hope you’ll check it out. I think you’ll be very, very glad you did.

Welcome to Hollywood Yesterday!

Ann Sheridan, It All Came True

Ann Sheridan
My name is Joi (“Joy”) and I created Hollywood Yesterday as my personal tribute to Old Hollywood. It’s my effort to help keep the stars from Old Hollywood, Classic Television, and Old Radio Shows alive and shining forever. Old Hollywood was positively magical and I see no reason for the magic to ever die.

Be warned, I am (by nature) overtly positive, I never take anything too seriously, I say extraordinary so often you’d think I invented the word, and I overuse exclamation points to distraction. I’m perpetually over-caffeinated.. we’ll blame that.

Not even Maureen O’Hara or Henry Fonda.

Priorities, y’all.

Olivia de Havilland

Olivia de Havilland, The Adventures of Robin Hood

My main goal with Hollywood Yesterday is to keep the names, faces, and films of the stars that mean so much to me shining brightly. When I’m guilty of focusing more time on my personal favorites (such as Olivia de Havilland) than other stars, I hope you’ll forgive me. I am, by all indications, very human!

Also, please know that I try to keep my posts (except for book reviews) short and to the point, so you can enjoy the pictures, grab the information, and get back to your life. I don’t appreciate anything that’s overly wordy, so I don’t want to do that to others. For better or worse, I write as I talk, so if you ever feel like you’re reading the words of someone who’s a cross between Lucy Ricardo, Daisy Duck, and a Jerry Lewis character, that’s just because you are!

Wait. What did I just admit to?? 

Barbara Stanwyck Quotes

Another personal absolute favorite of mine is Barbara Stanwyck. Not only was she beautiful and outrageously talented, she was exceptionally bright, charismatic, and colorful. This growing collection of Barbara Stanwyck Quotes will give you an idea of just how colorful she was!
