OLD QUEEN AT THE MOVIES
—for the wonderful Steve Hayes
NORTH BY NORTHWEST (1959)
The classy way—
Cary Grant sort of
swishes his way
Down a lonely—
highway by a
deserted cornfield
Or pulls up—
Eva Marie Saint
off Washington’s nose
Into the compartment—
honeymoon bed of the
speeding Super Chief
_______________
LOLITA (1962)
The utterly—
depraved look
on his face
James Mason—
sitting in the
backyard patio
As Sue Lyon—
does her little
hula hoop act
Shelley Winters—
simply fuming
with jealousy
_____________
SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS (1961)
The way that—
Natalie Wood
goes down on
Warren Beatty—
(his film debut)
leaning aloofly
back against—
a wall in that
sexy scene in
William Inge’s—
sexy Sixty’s
Teen Tearjerker
_______________
IMITATION OF LIFE (1959)
The awful way—
Troy Donahue
beats up poor
Susan Kohner—
for passing as
a White Girl
Or the way—
Lana Tuner
looks shocked
When her slutty—
daughter goes down
on John Gavin
_____________
THE BIRDS (1963)
The way those—
simply awful crows
went berserk
Pecking at—
Tippi Hedren’s
eyes up there
In the attic—
even the cute
little Love Birds
Turning into—
vicious mean
evil creatures
______________
PSYCHO (1960)
The look on—
Anthony Perkins’
Peeping Tom’s face
Then doing drag—
there in the old
Bates Motel
The awful—
slice and dice
scene with
Pretty, nude—
showering lovely
Janet Leigh
