Re: *CANDIDS*
Always enjoyed Victor Jory - here he looks like an enigma - "I can play a good guy or a bad guy, you figure it out!!"..... A great all round actor..... My heart chilled when I saw his picture, for he's always unscrupulous Jonas Wilkerson to me. He married that pwt Emmy Slattery and now wa...

Re: *CANDIDS*
Wow! What a big day. A broad spectrum. I'm always looking for Eleanor Audley in films. She's my "Waldo". "Where's Eleanor?" is my game. I bow to Anton Walbrook. And am thrilled to see that Alan Young outlived Mr. Ed.

Re: Round 5 - THE FINAL - #5 Powell & #3 Hawks
Shoot! I think I missed this vote (I was thinking the poll would be open until Monday, like the previous ones). And I would've voted for Powell, thus making an uneasy tie! Argh. I'm sorry Mr. Powell!

If Judy's picture means she's number 1, does Carmen's mean she's number 4?

...And I don't believe I've ever seen Frank Sutton without his Marine haircut on TV, so I had to stare at that photo for 10 mins. Thank you for that, Gary J.! I blithely skipped over Frank Sutton with a "he looks vaguely familiar" thought. Your quip sent me back to his picture and lo, und...

Re: WHAT MUSICALS HAVE YOU SEEN LATELY?
Recently I saw " Maytime " (1937) and I've confirmed it's still definitely my very favorite film of the MacDonald and Eddy team. The story is touching and believable; Eddy is in fine form and gives a sincere performance as the idealistic baritone; Jeanette is simply radiant and gives a lu...

Johnny Mitchell... or Douglass Drake... or...
Anyone know the story of "Johnny Mitchell"? I'm watching him now in the Frank Borzage film The Vanishing Virginian . So far I've learnd that his name was Douglas Lamy and that he worked at three different studios -- each under a different name! He eventually took the name Johnny Mitchell, ...

Ben & "Another Thin Man"
Ben introduced this morning's Thin Man movie explaining this was the first return of the couple to the series after a three year absence. The reason? He had cancer and was undergoing radium pellet treatment, leaving him too ill to work. So that confused me, as how does that explain the half dozen mo...

Re: Robert O taking a break
I thought Cher was a surprisingly good guest too. Do I worry too much? Robert Osborne was suppose to return in October (I thought October 1), but TCM's Facebook page announced that Chris Isaak and Peter Travers will be hosting the first two weeks of October; and there was no mention of Mr. Osborne's...

Re: Evergreen!
And what an interesting delight it was. Who knew that Norma Varden was once young? Yet, here she was as a barmaid; a role far different from her later matronly parts. Victor Saville's visual style was more interesting than I'd remembered from his later flicks (e.g., Green Dolphin Street; The Silver ...
