Christy:
You are right. I was struck by the range of the people Leo directed. For that matter even guys like George Stevens and George Marshall as well. They worked with comedians in the Hal Roach shorts and then all go on to do such classic movies.
Your turn.

No, jdb1. What they have in common is how friendly they supposedly were with someone famous.
I have no knowledge about their being on Nixon's enemies list, but that also could be true and another point they have in common. But, I don't think so.

Bernstein was reputedly on Nixon's list, and since Winters was such an enthusiastic supporter of liberal causes, it wouldn't surprise me if she was on it as well.Sue Sue Applegate wrote:No, jdb1. What they have in common is how friendly they supposedly were with someone famous.

However -- let's see -- is it that they both had affairs with Farley Granger?

According to Granger's autobiography, it would seem that they did.
And it also seems likely that they both were on Nixon's "enemies" list.
Thanks for playing, Judith. I really enjoy your "In Common" thread.
You're up!

That's a good one. I'm off to work, but I'll be thinking about it!
