Hi, John I only ever enjoyed Katharine Hepburn in one film, Stage Door. ....... One with Fred MacMurray ( I think it was ' Alice Adams') was a good one. I believe you could fill a book with what is wrong with the film version of My Fair Lady. .............. But what beautiful music! Bill Shirley sin...

I think a lot of people missed it but Brooklyn Girl and I had a ding dong going here last month, it started on the wrong thread ( my fault , I'm still learning how to post ) It was about Julie Harrie who ,I think, is wonderful and Bkln thinks is ugh, It was, certainly, a friendly debate. I was hopin...

Hi, PK. Knocking Cooper won't get one into any popularity polls. The guy has a following you wouldn't believe. I agree that he was not a great actor. He got the oscar twice. Robert Montgomery never did. Which, I think says something about the oscars. Acting ability was was not as important as person...

Hi Mongo. I'd like to add my thanks. I just started reading your spotlight posts. They're wonderful. What a lot of work!. You , most certainly, deserve our thanks. Lucky me, I have all those biogs to read and all those pictures. ...mel

Right on, Charlie. You got it. Good for you. Dorothy Dell Goff was born in Mississippi. She was Miss New Orleans of 1930. .. She played in ''Little Miss Marker'. She sang 'With my Eyes Wide Open, I'm Dreaming' in the Movie 'Shoot the Works', Dorothy Lamour and Shirley Ross succeeded her in Paramount...

Hi, John.
Daughter of the Mind, from 1969. Yes, thank you. I liked it ... It didn't exactly fit in the category, I thought it interesting....mel

Hi Anne,...Nice to hear from you. ....I get your meaning, I was taking a rather broad view which could make things a little confusing. I did see the ones you mentioned except for 'Nightmare' and 'Halloween'. I know I'm weird but I wasn't scared by any of them. Only movie that ever scared me was 'The...

to all: saw this on another site. ...'What in your opinion is the best and worst horror movies?' ... I typed this: best: 'the Uninvited'. 'The Haunting' ( the one with Julie Harris ) ... worst: 'The Omen', 'The Haunting' ( the one with Vincent Price )...I've seen only a few horror movies, I'm sure t...

Hi Bkln. I was kidding about the cheating. I know, I've a bizarre sense of humor.....Here's some more about MG: ... I was Miss blank (southern city ) of 1930, I was 15 at that time. I was in the cast of 'The Ziegfeld Follies' of 1931, I was 16 I played the heroine in an early Shirley Temple film. I ...

Thanks FEAITO, I'm gonna have to start looking things up more than I do, but I get these lazy spells especially after dinner, when it's so hard to stay awake. I recall only how beautiful Bow was, I know, I saw her in 'Wings' but don't remember much about it. Thanks.

Hi, Miss G, You come up with the most interesting posts. I liked that bit about G, B, Shaw's favorite actors. Shaw was noted for his acerbic wit. Speaking of which, Hardwicke got in some good remarks there. And speaking of Mr. H, I thought he was very good in 'Les Miserables' as Feaito said, H was u...

Hi Mongo. I saw 'Call Her Savage' when it first came out but that's all I remember about it. Was Fredric March in it? I guess, I was too young to notice all those interesting things mentioned in the posts. I did notice that Clara Bow was amongst the most beautiful women ever. You said you were surpr...

Hi, Moira. Your writeup on those Joan Crawford movies was perfect. And witty. If you're not a professional writer, you missed your calling. I didn't see them, I saw a couple of Crawford's films in the 30s when I was too young to be discerning, 'Sadie McKee', Dancing Lady' Forsaking All Others' but I...

Hey, Bkln, how about that? Must be the law of averages. I looked it up, of course. ( is that cheating? ) with my memory I look up everything. I got an easy one. I love this game, keep it going. I was born in the 'deep south'. I dropped my family name for show business and used my first and middle na...

hi, CMVGOR. Thanks for the welcome. This is a great site. I never got that $21, i was drafted in May of '41, just in time for the raise. I recall the saying (might've been a song ) 21$ a day once a month. Checking back, I was wrong about the price of Men's suits, Howards sold for 22 fifty and Crawfo...
