Re: The eyes have it . . .

I borrowed a copy of The Thin Man Collection from a friend recently, and in looking at the cover art, I was surprised how much the original ad artists "missed" capturing Powell. And it was always the eyes. Hey Dan! You know, you are so sweet. Thank you. I'm glad you can find some positive...

My favorite BBC program has always been Blackadder. I'm going to have to check out what air times they have now, I can't seem to catch it when it is on!

I have never seen Jeeves and Wooster, I really want to!

I sing! All the time, miles away from any threat of civilization :lol: But I enjoy it. I really love photography, it would be my major if they had it available. I once took a photography class, where my teacher told me I really had an eye for subjects. I don't enjoy the digital stuff, I'm afraid. I ...

I'm sorry... I just read your last paragraph :oops: Don't know how I missed that before! But thanks for the article, and the info! Especially the films... I'm going to have to dig deeper into this guy. :D He sort of reminds me of Chaney, not many of his silent films survive today either.

This is funny, because I actually saw one of those little spots they do on TCM about one of the supporting players from Casablanca , and this is the same guy!

Hi Larry! Can I nominate KEANU REEVES!! I mean, he's gorgeous sure, but I have never seen such a bad actor. I was watching Speed the other day... :oops: I can't believe I'm admitting that. He isn't even a bad actor, I don't know how he ever even acquired the title. Even his body language spells disa...
