Gloria is a guilty pleasure of mine. I love all her monster/horror flicks! (though she did appear in "normal" films too!). Why do you consider Gloria Talbott a "guilty pleasure"? Talbott was a kick (as in judo) in Girls Town . To me, her tough butch lesbian "Vida" was ...

As for overrated and underrated: Yes we disagree about how one uses these two terms. If I understand your POV, you believe that when a person say, Dan Duryea is underrated they are just saying "I think Dan is great!". When I hear underrated, I hear "I think Dan is great, but the over...

EP, you mentioned in the post before the one I quoted that you've reached a stage in your life and also something about speaking freely and not worrying about what people think about you. I reached that stage by my 20's. The sad thing is that most people, if they reach that stage at all, reach it w...
