Re: *CANDIDS*

This would have to be my favourite thread. Thank you for all the work you do. As to the deleted picture I thought it was great. Personally I did not consider it to be in bad taste, but I realise that some people may.

Keep up the good work!

Re: ALFRED HITCHCOCK

Because the Hitchcock documentary was blocked I went to youtube and was able to watch by typing in Alfred Hitchcock memory of the camps. Initially I wept, then I felt ill and was unable to continue watching.

Re: LISTS

Holding a big box of Twizzlers in your arms? I am doomed, I have never heard of Twizzlers! Awww Fossy. It's American movie candy junk food. I can send you a smaller package if you like. ;-) That is very thoughtful of you but there would be no point. It would almost certainly be seized by Customs.

Re: *CANDIDS*

I first saw Joan Bennett in the movie Mississippi(1935). She portrayed a young girl of about sixteen. (actually she was 25 and this was her seventeenth movie). She was always pretty, but as a brunette she became beautiful.

Re: EVELYN

On the strength of mrsl`s write up of this movie, I ordered it. It arrived this morning and I watched it. What a great show! My son and his wife (who is from Co.Tipperary) will be visiting Australia in late March, and will be spending a week up here before flying home. I think she will enjoy it.

My assumption is that they are Dvdrs, but confirmation of that could only come from Jubilee. They are all region discs.
