In a list of 2000 songs, it is hard to imagine Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven,” Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” and Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” (all which rank in the DMDB’s top 100 of all time) being omitted. It does, however, short change harder rock. Overall, this is a first-rate list because it represents more years than most lists. The results posted here are for the top 500 songs. The list is unranked, but Dave’s Music Database has ranked the songs from Jasen’s book based on their overall status in the DMDB. It is an alphabetical listing of song titles, their songwriters, and the year the song was written. Jasen’s book A Century of American Popular Music (published 2002) collects 2000 songs from the 20th century.

Do you recall the painting Leslie Howard keeps in his tent, 'The Green Pumpkin' by Matisse? I have a print of it in my bedroom and think of the movie every time I look at it! Reply Delete The film was one of ten nominated for the best picture Oscar for 1941 (under its American title 'The Invaders'). It was a tremendously ambitious undertaking for Powell and Pressburger, a real assembly project, with bits filmed at different times and in different places. Thank you for reminding me of the fascinating backstory of this film with your thorough coverage of how it was conceived and filmed.

It's also memorable for its great use of so many wonderful actors and actresses. Powell seemed to have a knack for bringing out the best in his settings. It's especially memorable for its use of Canadian locations and landscapes. It's a bit too episodic to be completely effective for me, but some parts of it I like very much. A sense of humour is also finely tuned in our American cousins as well and the border inspector’s role in dashing Hirth’s escape is one of the all-time great movie punch lines this side of I Know Where I’m Going!.Ĭaftan Woman, I have seen this a couple of years ago on TCM. The exchange between Hirth and Brock tickles me greatly as the narrow-minded Nazi has not been able to figure out that individual humour and the freedom to express it is the basis of the Canadian character. He gripes about life in general and the army in particular with a sardonic sense of humour and sees the world through his own code. He doesn’t think of himself as a criminal, just somebody who is fed up. Brock is a slightly AWOL soldier sneaking back to camp. Andy Brock is a Canadian I can understand and relate to. The Hollywood-New York-London actor Raymond Massey, brother of the aforementioned Canadian High Commissioner, plays my favourite character in the movie. The backtracking and unrepentant Hirth, a hero to his countrymen, makes his way to southern Ontario and a train heading stateside at Niagara Falls.
