BATMAN - "The Bookworm Turns" |
Day: Tuesday November 09 2010 |
Time: 5:30 AM - 6:00 AM eastern |
Channel: The Hub |
"Lydia Limpet" (Francine York) is bound and gagged. |
Record number: 1896 Title: Batman (1966) Medium: TV Series Actress: Francine York Description: Episode: "The Bookworm Turns" (1.29) Unknown to Batman and Robin, Lydia Limpet (York) is the Bookworm's moll. The Dynamic Duo follow up a lead (they've received a book entitled "For Whom the Bell Tolls) and enter a bookmobile, where they find the lovely Miss Limpet detective gagged with a white cloth and bound with wrists in front. Batman removes the gag and leaves to run down the information provided by the cute brunette, but not trusting her completely, he leaves her wrists tied. To occupy the time, Miss Limpet requests Robin read to her, but it's a trap -- the book is booby-trapped with a sleeping gas. When Robin awakens, he's bound to the clapper of a 40 foot tall bell. When the clock strikes midnight he'll be crushed. Fortunately, the Caped Crusader realizes the meaning of the Hemingway clue and has his Batzooka in the Batmobile trunk. The action begins around the halfway mark, and some of it is included in the reprise at the beginning of the next episode, "While Gotham City Burns". |

NO WAY OUT |
Day: Tuesday November 09 2010 |
Time: 4:00 PM eastern |
Channel: Fox Movie Channel (FMC) |
Linda Darnell is handgagged. |
Record number: 9014 Title: No Way Out (1950) Medium: Movie Actress: Linda Darnell Description: Outstanding and lenghty handgag for an amazingly cute Linda Darnell, in that J. Mankiewicz classic drama from 1950. Near the end of the movie, the bad guy, Richard Widmark, and his deaf mute associate, await her in her flat in order to give her a lesson (this violent racist thinks she's much too friendly with an african-american doctor he especially hates). Wearing skirt and heels, she is first grabbed from behind as she returns home. Quick scene, dark light. Widmark does the talking, his brother the handgagging. Then comes the great moment: after Widmark has punched the girl in the stomach, he asks his brother to put his hand on her mouth, while he speaks to her (she is now seated). There comes one of the best handgags in movie history: a lenghty scene in close-up, excellent lighting, with beautiful facial expressions of distress from the lovely brunette. She looks at Widmark, frightened, turns her head back, with the hand of the other guy still firmly clamped over her mouth. Truly, this scene belongs to the hall of fame! |
