Re: Does anyone remember Susan Kohner

I love Susan K and wish I had been named for her rather than Susan Hayward! Check IMDB for many interesting facts about her; I believe she was the daughter of an actress and in turn her sons produce very popular films today-the American Pie series. She made too few films (imho) before retiring young...

Re: The great Oscar Levant

Another big Oscar fan here....I once drove 90 miles (each way) to see An American in Paris screened at the Eastman House. There were quite a few kids in the audience since it was a weekend-good that patrents wanted to expose their kids to "classic" film. Well, anytime Oscar was on the scre...

Re: Just Me ?

I'm another one who will be tuning in. Mainly to see the guest programmers, but because as usual, the last time DI was on, I fell asleep for the last 20 minutes.

Another big Busby fan here. Anyone catch the Busby tribute in The Big Lebowski? There's even an anashamed rip-off from By A Waterfall with Jeff Bridges traveling through the spread legs of the dancing girls. If you listen to the director's voice track, they explain it had to be completely computer g...

Re: Paul Douglas Movies on TCM

I just caught the tail end of It Happens Every Spring and noticed how actually trim Douglas was. He seems to be a "big fat guy", but it's really just his big face that makes him *seem* that way. I love his charactors but especially love him in The Solid Gold Cadillac with Judy Holliday. Sh...

Re: Your Movie 'Guilty Pleasures'

I love the sappy Fly Away Home , what's wrong in liking a kids movie without kids? All those Garland/Rooney films we call "classic" are just formula fare for kids. The fun Clueless falls into this catagory as well. What I end up watching alone (just too embarassing) is Mystery Science Thea...
