King, this is as close as some of us will ever get to hearing Thelma Schoonmaker, our living link to Michael Powell, speak in such detail and evident love about this gifted man. Thank you so much for your generous description and your short hand!!!

David,

OMG!!!

I don't even know where to begin to say thank you for this incredible recap!!! MrCutter had never seen How the West Was Won in real Cinerama so we were at the Dome while you were with Thelma. Otherwise, I would have been there. I do hope that they bring Thelma back either next year or the next. I would love for her to do a Club TCM presentation.

A girl can dream......

In the meantime, I will live vicariously through your recap.

A million thanks and I owe you a drink!
