Re: Sue Sue's TCM Film Festival Tidbit Travel Blog

Hi Christy, I'll have to figure out a list for 1947, but I nominate yours whole heartedly. I'm booked into the Roosevelt now. I'm actually away from September 21st to December 12th - San Francisco; then Miami and then a cruise around South America.. So, the Spotlight Passes may be all gone by the ti...

Re: Sue Sue's TCM Film Festival Tidbit Travel Blog

Hi Christy,

I love the idea of "Topper" and "Tovarich" and "Easy Living" and "History is Made at Night" - all of which I've never seen...
I would add "You Can't Take It with You", which I found 'laugh out loud' funny.....

Re: CANDIDS II

Hi Joe, Yes, Carol Cook did have her vibrant red hair. I was standing in line in the boiling sun at the Montalban Theater with Sam (part of my TCM Brigade!!) waiting to get into the theater to see Sophia Loren's interview, when Carol and her husband came through. I stepped forward and said, "Hi...

Re: CANDIDS II

Dear Joe, Thanks a million for the fabulous photo of Elaine Stewart - a darling lady... Great sense of humour - often ribald!!!!!!! I can't believe she's gone and we won't talk on the phone anymore. She was the last of "my old ladies" as I termed them. Can you believe that when Zsa Zsa had...

Re: Our Family Album

Dear Chris, Of course you're of value - you are articulate and write well and have masses of experience. A person of worth...... Take some time off and chill out; read that book Christy mentioned and think about what you'd LIKE to do - then it won't be work but fun and a pleasure. Don't get bored or...

Re: RITA HAYWORTH - The Love Goddess

Hi Erik, I meant to tell you that the Festival showed "King of Kings" (1961) this year and Brigid Bazlen played Salome in it. She does a rather weak and tepid dance that is rather sexless. Now what they should have done was spliced Rita's Dance of the Seven Veils from "Salome" (1...
