Some of you might know that on January 1, 1987, a movie named Scenes from the Goldmine starring Timothy B. Schmit was released. Well, I have never been able to find it so I've never seen it. Then, today, I discovered you can stream it on Netflix (https://movies.netflix.com/WiMovie/Scenes_from_the_Goldmine/70160359?ca_source=gaw&ca_pos=1t1&ca_cid=10624314837&ca_agid=4789093284&ca_adid=18628758804&ca_chid=2001704&mqso=80013955&gclid=CKGT1fiSybQCFSWoPAoddj4ATQ) and/or Amazon prime! I'm going to watch it now - I hope it's good!

Just finished it. Wow, this movie was awful! For those of us watching to see Tim, as Kath notes on TBSO (http://timothybschmitonline.com/solo/moviestv/goldmine.htm), Tim doesn't get hardly any dialogue even though he's in several scenes. Only watch this is you are mega-hardcore and want to see everything he's done.

Soda, I didn't know you didn't have this. I'm sorry or I would of made sure you had gotten a copy (probably given it to you to copy because I don't know how). Heaven knows, I owe you a few!! Yeah--- pretty bad, isn't it? :hilarious:

I never even heard of this! I guess I will watch it, but I don't have Netflix, so I will try to get it on Amazon???

If you're going to watch it on Netflix, do so soon! I just saw that this movie will not be available for streaming on Netflix after May 1.

Before it got taken down, I thought I'd do some screenshots. Now, keep in mind the streaming quality is not the best and Tim's few scenes were very fleeting, but hey - it's better than nothing!

Soda, thanks for taking the time to do those. It's been a long time since I've watched it so I got a kick out of seeing them.

And Timothy in makeup just kills me. :hilarious:

Thanks for loading those pictures because I don't think I will be seeing this movie. I still can't get used to Tim's 80's hair! What year is this movie?:fear:

sodascouts

It's 1987, I believe. As for his hair... That braid below... What the heck?! He was looking a lot better by his album shoot for Timothy B.

Yeah, that braid........:headshake: There was a guy around here that had one that came down to the middle of his back. I can't remember what they called them.....rattail? Don't know what the point was and it was gross! :lol:

And it is hard to recognize Tim with the short hair! I prefer nowadays! :nod:

OK--- I confess I had a rattail. A very long rattail and it was PURPLE!! LOL I had a very bad perm that fried my hair that had gone to the middle of my back. When I was having it all cut out to a very blond, spiky hair cut (remember it was the 80s), my best friend who was with me suggested I leave the rattail. :hilarious: I was a month away from heading to New York City and thought it would be pretty cool and fit right in. I was about 22 or 23. My parents were NOT impressed.

But on Timothy? Nah!!!

Too funny TBF....I put an electric blue streak in my hair & my mom almost had a fit. It wasn't one of those you could wash out..I had the hairdresser dye it. I thought it was really cute, but I never had a rattail.

Hi all - I'm new here. TBS is my favorite Eagle, so I thought I'd start here! I watched the movie last night, and I have to say it is seriously the worst movie I have ever seen, even with Tim in it! How did it even get made, let alone released??!! It was so bad it was funny. But, I'm still glad he did it...

Mary p.s I want to make an AVI from a screen cap of that video of Timothy singing Rose of Cimarron with POCO on youtube, but I don't know how. Will work on it!

sodascouts
04-30-2013, 09:53 PM
Welcome Mary! If you need help with the screencap, just let me know! It is a wonder that this movie got made, but at least we get some eye candy. ;)

I wish I would have seen this site sooner so that I could have checked this out on Netflix! I looked at the credits on the Internet Movie Database (imdb.com) and Jean is listed in the credits as a 'fan'. Is that her in the picture with Timothy's rattail? (the woman in the fur coat?)

By the way, I prefer the 90's Tim look, but as a child of the 80's I don't really mind the mullet on Timothy. I think he could pull of just about any look :)

Me too! Didn't know he had been in a movie and, even from the screenshots, you can tell it's not good ... but what was TBS's acting like?

Sorry SS, I just laughed out loud when you asked about his acting...not much acting going on there... Some playing bass, some standing around, a little silliness. It really is a bad movie! But yes, he looks beautiful, and happy. One thing I've noticed about Timothy that I've never said because I don't want people to get mad at me is that despite his comments that he always wanted to be up on stage in front of people, it seems to me that he appears to be uncomfortable when he is the center of attention. Maybe it's not uncomfortable, but very self-aware - I don't know how to put it. I did not see him on his solo tour, and I'm sure that those who were in the room would probably have another perspective, but from all of the videos I've seen, it seems that he is truly very shy and maybe nervous, even after all of these years of performing. When he is performing with Poco or the Eagles he is rockin and in his element and very confident. As soon as the focus shifts to him and he has to speak, even for band intros, he just seems...shy. That's how I see his acting, including in his videos - he is enjoying it, but is self-conscious. This is not remotely a criticism, just an observation of his sweetness - he does not have a strong personality that takes over the room. Just my observation, I'm sure others have a different image of him.

MC, what you said is very much the same view of Timothy I have! In my opinion the important thing to understand about him is that he's shy, not very shy but a bit IMO, when he's the center of attention but likes it when he's with a band. I also think that he comes off as not very strong personality, compared to the other Eagles, because he stands more to the background on stage and doesn't talk much in Eagles' interviews. It's clear to me though that he has a lot of personality to him, he's just not aggressive in his manners like many others. I personally appreciate that he's not pushy.:):heart:

I'm sorry - I don't know if that's her. I didn't even know she was in it!

MC - I can see where you're coming from with that analysis.

MC I agree with you about Timothy being shy. At his solo show he seemed so happy to be there, but I felt like he was a little nervous. That makes him all the more endearing to me.

Glad it hasn't been completely lost to the dustbin of history because it's his only acting role, but for anyone who watches it, you might want to just fast-forward the parts without Timothy. Otherwise, you're in for some major suffering. lol

I laughed when I read your response. I do get the same feeling about TBS's personality. And he can seem nervous solo (I only know from YT clips) but that is quite a big deal for someone who's always been in a band rather than leading a band. But this line from Secular Praise makes me wonder:

'Some people think I'm shy'

It implies that he knows he gives that impression but that maybe it is just an impression. Interesting. I think he knows his mind, his worth, but is not egotistic but grounded and grateful for his talents.

good point ss, like he said somewhere"I'm shy until you get to know me and I'm the party after that"

Oh did he really say that? That's interesting. I think a lot of shy people are the same. I know I am. Shy with people I don't know.

I agree with you, ss. I don't think Timothy is insecure. I think he is just naturally quiet & unassuming, with an underlying self confidence.

I am having fun (and spending too much time!) going thru old threads and postings here. SS is right, the movie was painful to watch. I had to fast forward to watch Timothy's guitar playing scenes. I thought it was cool that Bruce Springsteen's sister was also in the movie.

I watched this last night. He, he! At least Timothy is gorgeous in it. Not in it enough tho. I had forgotten he cut his hair in the 80's!

Timaddict

I love his hair short or long. It's not the long hair that makes him gorgeous. My hair is exactly the same and I don't look like he does, believe me. It's that face! The bone structure. It's straight from Gods box of miracles. There's not one photo in that group where he doesn't looks breathtakingly gorgeous. I love the bubblegum photo too.:thumbsup: I agree that Timothy seems to appear very unnatural and uncomfortable when he is under the spotlight... unless he's singing or playing...then he's the master. I guess he's just that humble he lacks confidence.
Three questions:
Who's the outrageously lucky, lucky woman that got to kiss him?
How many takes dig she muck up deliberately? (I would)
Why was he not the lead singer in that movie? What a waste of a huge talent.
