Hmmm... I had a friend that I wanted to introduce to Crosby, but I am a major fan o his earlier work. So I showed them the comical yet outlandish We're Not Dressing then I showed them Going Hollywood (has some of his best ballads, IMO). I would show some of his pre-codes, because they are interestin...

I think of Harold Lloyd as being square, but really cool (in my sight). But I agree that Jimmy Stewart is definately the best example...

Thanks for the posts, guys. I've never read any biographies of stars I like because I fear it will disappoint me... Sometimes I'd just rather watch them on screen, then hear about their personal experiences ;) If I buy this one, it will be my first.

:D I was curious if any of you would like to honor mother's day by answering any of the two questions below: Who is your favorite film mother? Who is your favorite TV mother? Also, if you so desire, I'd love to hear any special memories you have with your own mother. If you are so lucky to still hav...

What are you listening to?

Just curious... Are you into new music, old music? Personally, I barely listen to anything that is out on the air waves to day. I like to go back and find the gems of the past, like artists such as KC & The Sunshine Band and Bill Monroe. I also listen to ABBA :oops: and The Carpenters :oops: :oo...

Oh gosh, I love some of those teeny-bopper flicks from the 80's and 90's, like Breakfast Club , Pretty In Pink , She's All that , ect, ect... If you have never seen Never Been Kissed it is the ultimate spoof on the teen movie. Really hilarious, great romantic comedy... I'm not so sure if it is a 'gu...

I can't understand a word the man speaks, don't think he's attractive, and find no 'charm' in his smile, besides thinking his 'method acting' is more than highly over-rated.
