The Silver Screen Oasis

Great photos by the way. I don't care for men with beards, but there is one there of Ben that's . . . . well.

I know, Anne, I know! sigh...

Lz, you truly have the gift for scenario..... Oh my word! That is a hoot....

Anne- do you think maybe you could step out with bad boy Mitchum for just a little bit.... I'd be glad to help console Ben in the meantime......

Be still my heart!

That is my favorite of his roles.....sigh.......

Remember, he don't partake of chaw, nor play at cards, neither.
[Reckon his Ma wouldn't approve.]

Klonny - You are sweet.

I forgot to say congratulations earlier on a happy almost-30 year marriage - still going strong...

My favorite scene from Rio Grande:







I'm hungry....




Beans?????



Didn't nobody tell the army that they grew BEEF in this part of the country?

Though there are plenty "Wagon Master" is my favorite Ben role.

Wagon Master is my favorite movie of all time. Ben's wonderful in it, and it's the most lyrical movie I've ever seen. It just flows like a river....

I love the 3rd-from-the-top photo about "much obliged", the way he cocks one eyebrown oh-so-slightly. Just perfectly. His expressiveness is dead-on.

Ollie - do NOT get me started on his eyebrow....

The TCM girls have already heard me wax poetic about it....

MissG-

More river imagery from Wagon Master:

I so want to see Wagon Master....he is just toooooooo - toooooooo. sigh......................

where's a heart avatar when you need one?????

now that's what I'm talking about!

He honestly makes me shiver!
