The crazy actor who was in Paths of Glory with the big bug eyes was Timothy Carey. He was a method actor. Huge overactor. Carey, who was nuts, doesn’t show up one day. They’re shooting on a tight schedule because they don’t have a lot of money to do it. [Stanley] Kubrick and [produ read more

Quote of the Week
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Apr 5, 2015
Here’s one from the archives; I thought it appropriate for Easter Sunday. And hey, I’m back! But I think, actually, Timothy Carey in his movie The World’s Greatest Sinner did that [dealt with the desecration of the Eucharist]. The film was never released, but it’s one of John read more

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Mar 13, 2015
This has pretty much become my default post for Friday the 13th. We actually have three of them this year, and for some reason I missed last month.

Quote of the Week
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Mar 8, 2015
In the landscape of television, public access has always been the equivalent to the wild, wild west. You will see and hear things that you would never see on “regular” or “for pay” television. It’s a field that many an artist and personality has created and prospered in. One man that fits read more

Quote of the Week
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Mar 2, 2015
Of course, the main reason to see THE WORLD’S GREATEST SINNER is to observe Timothy Carey with the brakes removed. He’s mesmerizing in every scene but subtlety is not his specialty. Some critics have accused him of being a total ham and his scene chewing has an excessive, bigger-than-life quality. read more
