Andy Griffith Tribute !
We pay memorial tribute to American actor, producer, singer, and writer Andy Griffith (June 1, 1926 – July 3, 2012) with his breakout role in Elia Kazan’s melodrama A FACE IN THE CROWD.
Andy Griffith is mesmerizing as Larry “Lonesome” Rhodes, a wild Arkansas vagrant-turned-television sensation in Kazan’s provocative and poignant masterpiece about fame, fraud and the transition from radio to television. Equally captivating is Patricia Neal as Marcia Jeffries, the naive Sarah Lawrence college student who is the first to fall under Larry’s fraudulent spell. “Brilliantly cinematic melodrama…paints a luridly entertaining picture of modern show business.” - Leslie Halliwell

Movies like this shatter my whole body into a broken-down pile of awe. Elia Kazan was a masterful little devil.
