Re: ASK ALEXA!
Dear Erik, Thanks So much for your previous compliment, but you would be bored with me after 15 minutes, believe it or not... Ok David I think you asked about which movie Mr. O was talking about with Mariette Hartley that "made his teeth hurt." I have the answer now and the movie was LESS ...

Re: ASK ALEXA!
Dear Moira (and everyone) That interview actually was conducted for TNT if I remember correctly. It may have been done as part of Our Favorite Movies or as part of the MGM archive. TCM inherited the project from Warner Home Video and their special projects such as Meet Me In St. Louis and Dr. Zhivag...

Re: ASK ALEXA!
Yes Jack
that is true.He told me in his interview that she promoted him to the next grade to get rid of him.
they later connected back in NYC and would go to the Russian Tea room together.
Wouldn't it have been great to be in the next banquette?

Re: ASK ALEXA!

Even when there was a lull during WWII with her Hollywood career, she went back to teaching and founded the Beverly Hills Presbyterian Church's nursery, and it still exists, with her name as the founder. Guess who one...

Re: ASK ALEXA!
Moira: Yes it was very much like Judy and Mickey when TCM started in terms of excitement. We were determined to beat AMC at its game and we did. We were always based in Atlanta and I would say there were about 20 of us. The producers then were both working on TNT and TCM. We were on in NYC as I reca...

David
YES! I did interview him all about his dad and mom. Hopefully we will be able to use the interview in some way on TCM. He is a great guy and met his first wife when they were both children on the set of ANNA AND THE KING OF SIAM. (she was Lee J Cobb's daughter.)

Re: ASK ALEXA!
Ok SSO fans- I looked back and Ann Doran was very funny - she loved Michael Curtiz (he gave her a ride home once when her car broke down) and Bill Wellman and of course Frank Capra. She told me that she estimated that she had been in 500 movies and 1,000 tv shows. WOW. Also Mary Astor is definitely ...

Re: ASK ALEXA!
Good Afternoon SSO fans: I am finally back and way behind on my work but here goes: MONGO - no word yet on your Universal titles. Virginia Grey fans: Yes, I had the privilege of interviewing her. She was still beautiful with big blue eyes and was surprisingly tall. I was told not to ask about Gable ...
