Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
I've been battling insomnia these past few days and came up with 1,000 Degrees of Bela Lugosi. I cannot believe all the connections. Everyone here can do this. Just pair Bela with any actor or actress, however remote. For instance, Bela Lugosi and Burt Lancaster = Lancaster is in THE BIRDMAN OF ALCA...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Fedya, you beat me to it -- I was going to mention DONDI, lol. I haven't seen that one, but I clearly recall Leonard Maltin's film guide making a crack that after that one, no wonder David Janssen became a fugitive (on TV at least). There actually were a few really bad films I left out the other da...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
By the way, in re: Joan returning to her farm sweetheart, check out the more fortunate (or not) Glenda Farrell and the choice she makes in SUSAN SLEPT HERE (airing later this month). It's a hoot! (plus Jayne Mansfield's surprising true love in WILL SUCCESS SPOIL ROCK HUNTER?)

What's a girl to do indeed.
I know what I'd like to do with Stephen Boyd.....

Re: Bad Movies You Love
If you get the Fox channel, it's on rotation there. Richard does not look happy in this role. With Burton's history of romancing his leading ladies, I wonder if a possible fling with Lana made everything a bit more tolerable.

Re: I Just Watched...
CNN's The United States of Scandal hosted by Jake Tapper. Rod Blagojevich, Mark Sanford, John Edwards, Eliot Spitzer (who looks like my Uncle Heshie from Brooklyn, lol) -- narcissistic hubristic (is that a word?) losers. Rod is an ugly little troll. Heard his name a lot when I lived in Chicago. Tapp...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
KayFrancis, I as well was looking forward to LUCY GALLANT (which I had never seen) but like you also unfortunately fell asleep, just as it was getting underway. Pissed me off! Agree with you and Hibi re: DESK SET. DESK SET has become TCM's Dr. Zhivago of the 2020s! WHY????? And it's always in prime...

Re: Bad Movies You Love
lol, I miss it too. By the way, have you seen THE RAINS OF RANCHIPUR? My comments on it actually didn't go far enough in emphasizing the badness -- I was probably too kind but didn't mean to be, ha! Lana alternates between shellacked, steely self-absorption and breathy little-girl neediness (to Burt...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Hibi, to quote Alan Young in THE TIME MACHINE (minus his "Scottish" accent, lol), you've got all the time in the world to watch. Poor Martha Hyer in THE BEST OF EVERYTHING -- it seemed her (edited?) scenes consisted of awkwardly shooting nervous glances at the married would-be office param...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Hey Hibi, you'll finally be able (if you can stay up late or record) to catch SUSAN SLEPT HERE since it's Debbie's month on TCM. Check their March schedule -- I think that movie airs on the 27th. Another heads up. One of the Debbie Reynolds nights has two rare Paramonts: The Rat Race with Tony Curt...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
CI, I've got a lot of catching up to do with your list! I've only seen THE OSCAR, SKIDOO, THE SWARM, and THE NEW ADVENTURES OF PIPPI LONGSTOCKING, all truly terrible.
