Picture Show (A thread for interesting photos from the world of movies and TV)*

These are excellent, but I would appreciate more captions to tell us who is in the photo.

 

Some people love mysteries...

Paul Newman's 1956 DUI arrest -- an incident that has been almost completely erased from the public memory.

Terry Wikie on Facebook just dropped dozens of interesting behind-the-scenes shots of Bewitched. These are Mitchell BNC 35mm cameras (range finders, no reflex) on Worrall geared heads, which were standard for the 1960s.






That's a massive 10K Mole-Richardson light in the upper right. They needed tons of light to photograph these old 1960s shows.


This appears to have been shot on "Morning Glory Circle," the fake suburban street on the Columbia Ranch on Riverside Drive in Burbank. A lot of this area is being razed for office buildings right now.

 

And a few more from Bewitched...




Darrin tries to explain why there's a cow walking around the hallways of McMann & Tate (his fictitious Madison Avenue advertising agency). The box on top is an "Obie Light," basically an eyelight to flatter the actors in close-ups.


Here's Elizabeth Montgomery in makeup as her lookalike cousin "Serena," flanked by lots of reflectors for fill on the "Morning Glory" street set.


Here's Dick Sargent (Darrin #2) in a later color episode with Maurice Evans as Samantha's father.


and here's Paul Lynde shoving his head up into an unusual area as "Uncle Arthur" in a behind-the-scenes shot. I believe that's a 750-watt Mole-Richardson light in the foreground being used for fill, and the ubiquitous Mitchell BNC camera in the background on the right.

Rare photos of Rawhide star Eric Fleming shooting the TV movie High Jungle (now lost), on the Huallaga River in Peru, 1966:

Fleming signed to topline High Jungle, an adventurous two-part episode of the short-lived MGM Television-ABC Off to See the Wizard anthology also intended for theatrical distribution in Europe. Six weeks into the location shoot in Peru, Fleming and co-star Nico Minardos were in a dugout canoe that overturned in the Huallaga River. Minardos managed to swim to safety. Fleming was swept away by the current and drowned on September 28, 1966, at age 41, leaving behind fiancé Lynne Garber.​
