She was married to Hopper wasn't she? I loved her in The Mamas and The Papas, I'm too young to have known them first time around but I think they're head and shoulders above most of today's music. I'm glad you've reset the balance and told us what she's really like.

Tony Curtis, I know we've discussed him somewhere, a character, perhaps too much for the lovely Janet Leigh to put up with forever, one has to give her credit for managing for so long.

Gosh, whatever happened to F. Murray Abraham? Wonderful actor but my last exposures to him seem to have come from direct-to- DVD movies. DILLINGER AND CAPONE anyone?

Alison, in my mentality there remains a certain sadness about celebrity couples who split. Of course Lucy and Desi (though somewhat gratifying to know they remained friendly to one another). Then there's Barbara Eden and Michael Ansara (thought they made close to the perfect couple) -- and, yes, Tony and Janet. But we know that whatever accusations Tony may have made about Janet, he was the real "bad boy" in their relationship.

Nowadays with celebrity splits (Danny and Rhea, for example) I've become pretty much blase.

Stone, F. Murray Abraham lived near me when I was in up state New York. He has a house in the town. A very nice neighbor who gave me an autographed photo. He is still making movies.

Lon Chaney Jr,, enacting the role of "the monster" in Universal's new chiller drama, "Ghost Of Frankenstein," visits the "Phantom Of The Opera" set where the late Lon Chaney, Sr. scored his memorable performance hit, and with the aid of trick photography, the two notable artists are framed in the same field.

I don't even know who Danny and Rhea are? They aren't Kardashians are they?

It was my pleasure, Kingme, since I am partial to horror films and its stars.

Wow Joe,

Great picture - scary, spooky, and a thriller....

At first I thought it was Anthony Perkins but I can see Raymond Massey in there too!!!

This guy would definitely scare me if seen in a dark alley - - or just on Main Street....
