The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 29, 2013
THE WORLD’S GREATEST SINNER (1963). Run, do not walk, to check out this movie! Timothy Carey, the character actor fave who appeared in everything from Kubrick‘s THE KILLING to The Monkees‘ HEAD, spent several years directing, writing and financing this below-low budget blast. One o read more
Pic of the Day: “Paths of Glory” revisited (5)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 26, 2013
You know, it’s funny – it’s so enjoyable discovering Timothy’s lesser-known works, that the classics sometimes get short shrift. It’s been almost a year since Paths of Glory got its own dedicated Pic of the Day, so let’s rectify that right now. Here he is during t read more
Video of the Week: “East of Eden” (1981)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 25, 2013
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate! I wanted to post something appropriate to the holiday, but wasn’t sure what would fit the bill. Then I discovered that some kind soul had finally put this up on YouTube, and the day was saved. This is part one of the three-part East of Eden television mini read more

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 22, 2013
Related Here’s a rough translation: I don’t understand how it didn’t come to my attention sooner. While reviewing “Casta de malditos” (The Killing) and “La patrulla infernal” (Paths of Glory) for a course on Stanley Kubrick, I (re) met Timothy Carey; those e read more

This week’s video is another one from the archives. It’s the episode of The Untouchables known as “Ain’t We Got Fun,” first broadcast on November 12, 1959. To me, one of the greatest mysteries of Timothy’s career is how he received no screen credit for this rather read more

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 16, 2013

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 15, 2013
EDITOR’S NOTE: The “pirate actor” is unnamed, but I asked Mr. Gordon about it, and he confirmed that the actor was indeed Timothy. But, of course, doing a movie isn’t all fun and games. Much of it is hard work with long hours. And sometimes painful, like our young star Charli read more
Video of the Week: “Fire Man” (2)

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 10, 2013
In the midst of freezing temperatures across the nation (and it’s not even officially winter yet), let’s take a trip back to the beach and those carefree days of summer. Except that we’ll be stuck in a pool hall. Our pic today is from Beach Blanket Bingo (1965), the second film in read more
Celebrating Two Major Birthday Anniversaries.
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 9, 2013
Today brings the birthday anniversaries of two of Timothy’s most important colleagues. Firstly we offer warmest 97th (!) birthday greetings to the legendary Kirk Douglas. Tim attempted to steal the spotlight from him in his uncredited (and we believe largely excised from the film) role as one read more
Quote of the Week (355)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 8, 2013
Carey’s first and only follow-up to his directorial debut The World’s Greatest Sinner was every bit as weird and offbeat a project. It was funded in large part by his friend John Cassavetes. The proposed 70 minute TV pilot entitled Tweet’s Ladies of Pasadena focused on a gardener named Tweet Twig read more

Pic of the Day: “The Gentleman” revisited (3)

Today we take another look at Tiller Evans, the abusive suitor of the Gunsmoke episode “The Gentleman”. It was first aired on June 7, 1958. He’s got Marshal Dillon (James Arness) in his sights, but it won’t be ending well for him. This episode was directed by fellow Brooklyn read more

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 3, 2013
We here at the TCE are thrilled to wish a very happy 74th birthday anniversary to the great Don Calfa! Romeo Carey and I had the honor and pleasure of interviewing him last summer, at his memorabilia-packed home deep in the California desert. He shared some amazing memories of working with Timothy i read more

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Dec 1, 2013
HEAD Those ingrates The Monkees bite the hand that feeds them in this ninety minute psychedelic romp that attacks the pop dominated music industry with the odd tune thrown in. Carey pops up from time to time as Lord High ‘N’ Low, to represent all things evil and malicious in the rock stars’ world. read more
Pic of the Day: “Convicts 4″ revisited (5)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Nov 29, 2013
After stuffing ourselves yesterday, we deserve a rest. And where better to put up our feet than in the clink? We close the holiday week with another look at Convicts 4 (1962), Millard Kaufman‘s prison biography of artist John Resko (Ben Gazzara). Unbeknownst to Resko and his old pal Nick, they read more
