"A Face in the Crowd" was one of the BEST movies of the 1950s but I guess folks back then couldn't handle their beloved Andy Griffith who had recently starred in "No Time For Sergeants" as a highly flawed character. Griffith should have won the Oscar for his performance as Lonesome Rhodes.

Oh the irony.

The erstwhile ‘beloved’ Andy Griffith was no Andy Taylor after all;(

As great as he was on the old Andy Griffith Show, he is indeed flawed (in real life). Check him and Ron Howard ("Opie") out endorsing Obama's Marxist "change" agenda in this 2008 presidential election tv commercial:

warning: If you’re a fan of the Andy Griffith and Happy Days tv shows this will surely sicken you. Wrinkler also takes a cheap shot at Palin.

Has anyone noticed he keeps giving the "Jobs Tour" speech to a lot of college crowds? You wouldn't think that a bunch of college kids would be particularly be impressed to hear that there are infrastructure jobs waiting for them. Why isn't he stopping by the unemployment offices in any US city, and telling those folks?

He's trying to shore up his base, not convince the unemployed workforce that he has a viable plan.

I thought he was paraphrasing the bible when Jesus says; “If you love me, keep my commandments”.

Floated by the DUmp this morning.

Interesting to find there are ^no^ threads discussing #attackwatch.

I agree. That was an awesome movie. I saw it for the first time a few months ago on TCM.

Andy Griffith pulled that part of like no one else I can imagine. What a combination of “goofy” and scary.

The performance of a lifetime!

(Too bad Andy Griffith was a major leftist)
