Glenn Ford He's actually quite good in Dear Heart as well, but I can't bear Geraldine Page, and have never learned to get over my dislike.

Re: The April 2013 TCM Schedule
Thanks for your kind words, Miss Moira. I appreciate the feedback on all my meandering thoughts, ha. perhaps part of that was that the Colonel felt a certain shame in being the commandant of a campful of women and children. I felt that he saw his relationship with Agnes (Claudette Colbert) as a link...

Re: The April 2013 TCM Schedule
Here's what I wrote in 2007* about this film when I first encountered it, if you are interested: Thank you, Ms Finnie, for sharing that post! I enjoyed reading your thoughts and I completely agree about how Colbert really carried this role and made it so believable (all issues of her hair, not with...

Re: The April 2013 TCM Schedule

Re: The April 2013 TCM Schedule
Have you seen Three Came Home (1950) and what did you think of it? Hi there Ms Finnie... I have NOT seen that one. It was on too late the other night for me to even try to catch it.. but after reading the comments here.. it sounds fascinating. I will make a point of looking for it. PS: Ms Favell.. ...

Re: The April 2013 TCM Schedule
Thank you Ms Finnie, for spotlighting So Proudly We Hail. I have become a true fan of this film over the years, and must say that I completely agree with you about how well this film highlights the "side players". (though I do confess this is a favorite film for me w/ Ms Colbert as well) A...

Re: To Dream of Dogs
