Whew! That one-handed typing wore me out. So I had to put the thing down, and come back--on a real computer--for a second helping. This has been such a delicious (re)discovery!
Thinking over the Morgan titles that've been mentioned here, I'm realizing: that latent liking for Morgan had been growing and growing--also with "Three Cheers for the Irish" ( where the psuedo-Irish lad plays a Scotsman ), and "The Lady Takes a Sailor" ( what can I say? I just like it ), and "Two Guys from Texas" ( that's right: Texas--like another Road picture )... Growing so quietly, it was almost imperceptible. And then, seeing "Mama Runs Wild" on Friday... Boom! "Why didn't you tell me I was in love with you?"
. . .
As a parting shot, I thought this might be appropriate: a slightly flawed, but unquestionably handsome still, from my collection of such Things Paramount. Look at the name in the lower-left corner.
( Is the writing too small? )
I think I must check out Dennis Morgan in "The Hard Way"! You and Wendy--you've sold me. And Stanley Morner sold me. I did see enough of it once to be able to repeat plot points. But the half-an-eye I had on the screen was, again, too far across the room. I can't wait to sit down with the movie and really look at performances.[u]Bronxgirl48[/u] wrote:I think Cher should check out Dennis in THE HARD WAY.

So perfectly put, Moira. As ever.[u]Moira[/u] wrote:Actually, I don't think that Morgan's character should have any "weight" in this role in Kitty Foyle since is playing a man whose life has been smooth sailing for so long, his saving grace is that he senses (even if he can't quite articulate it) that something is missing. I believe that is one reason why he becomes enamored with Kitty (Ginger Rogers), though once he is exposed to the disapproval of his family, he crumbles, predictably.
Moira: Thank you for rigging it! And Sue Sue, thank you for starting it! And, if there are any more wizards behind that curtain, please know, I thank you too.And on a personal note, Moira further wrote:I'm so glad that you were able to make the transition to your new name without much inconvenience from CarrieLiz to The Ingenue.
