Re: Returning shows and new shows

CBS has two new hits with Tracker and Elsbeth . I was happy that Melissa Roxburgh, the star of Manifest , is playing Justin Hartley's younger sister, though she won't be a regular on the show. I was even happier that Elsbeth is not PC in its choice of villains. Any celebrity can be a villain. As wi...

Re: I Just Watched...

CNN's How It Really Happened: Oscar Pistorious "My lady, it was an accident" Sure. Right. Four "accidental" gunshots . . . Apparently that's just how you ask someone if the loo is occupied in South Africa. It's a (slightly) different culture than here in the US (barring Texas.) ...

CNN's How It Really Happened: Oscar Pistorious "My lady, it was an accident" Sure. Right. Four "accidental" gunshots . . . It could be even more outrageous. It could have been like that notorious 1980 murder case involving the Lizzie Borden of the 20th century who gave another w...

New York Jewish widow (Roz Russell) develops a relationship with a lonely Japanese businessman.

Guess who's coming to dinner?

Unfortunately it is not Sessue Hayakawa.
I guess we can be thankful that it's not Mickey Rooney . . .

Re: For Bronxgirl48: Mother's Day

I treated by mom and my maternal grandmother to a screening of ROMAN HOLIDAY at the Music Box Theatre in Chicago on Mother's Day. Grandma will be 80 next month. The Music Box Theater is lovely. I am excited for the Liz & Monty series they are running. I am going to be busy this summer, but hope...

Re: I Just Watched...

Speaking of Dracula: the first ten minutes of Kevin Spacey's performance as Hickey in The Iceman Cometh are available on YouTube. This is simply some of the best acting I have ever seen. I think I get the Dracula reference, but as for the acting in THE ICEMAN COMETH clip I thought it was just Space...

Re: I Just Watched...

LHF, do you (or does anyone for that matter) know why the story was changed in the 1931 movie DRACULA to have Renfield visit Count Dracula's castle at the beginning rather than Jonathan Harker (as happens in Bram Stoker's source novel)? OMG AN UNSOLICITED DRACULA QUESTION!!!!! (I am not exactly an ...

I also have THIS COMPULSION where, even though I own them all on DVD- whenever any of the UNIVERSAL MONSTER FILMS become available on any format I have access to- I WILL WATCH. I dunno WHY but DRACULA (31), FRANKENSTEIN (31), THE WOLF MAN, THE INVISIBLE MAN and THE MUMMY (1933) are all on youtube (...

You are correct, Kay!

The movie is WHATEVER HAPPENED TO AUNT ALICE --- one of my favorites.

It's your turn to try to stump us with a spoiler.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

Just thought I would share this.

I received my first "Shut up, fag" response on X (formerly known as Twitter).

I feel honored.
