THE FRESHMAN is very funny (Andrew Bergman).
Do not miss Paul Benedict as a very pretentiously enthusiastic NYU film professor who runs scenes from THE GODFATHER for his students. Hilarious.
And Maximillan Schell pops ups, quite amusingly. "They said one boy and here are two...."

Re: Coming up on TCM...
One of those early TCM executives didn't mind being transparent as to why Ben Mankiewicz was brought in as a counterpart to Osborne, aside from the fact he is Hollywood "royalty" -- I quote almost verbatim: "We liked your snarkiness and irreverence because as we all know Robert was a ...

Re: TCM Premieres....
Cannot wait to see ONE TOUCH OF VENUS again after so many years. I remember it fondly.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
So who watched Goodbye Charlie? Despite the Mank saying it was a premiere. I still say they aired it before. (I doubt he researches what they write for him to say) Yay or Nay? (I recorded it). I watched it last night Hibi, and I don't think I laughed once during it. Yep, it was pretty bad. The only...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Please tell me why I was so upset seeing Fred Astaire squeezing a rabbit very tightly by the ears in EASTER PARADE. Okay it was a stuffed bunny but still.....lol. My guess on this Bronxie, is that your feelings of over-empathizing with that bunny all might stem from your well-known and long-sufferi...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Hibi, I kind of like TAKE HER, SHE'S MINE but it's creepy what with James Stewart being so obsessed over daughter Sandra Dee's virginity. Robert Morley's dry British wit is welcome, though. There's a running gag throughout the movie -- everyone thinks Jimmy is Jimmy Stewart the actor, lol. Morley s...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
I vividly remember sitting on my living room couch in Hollywood back in the late seventies one afternoon when all of a sudden I felt a -- this is hard to describe -- a "splitting" underneath of the ground -- some sort of weird shake that lasted only about three seconds. I had never experie...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
It looks like GOODBYE CHARLIE didn't make it to Watch TCM so it doesn't look like I'm going to get to see it tonight as I hoped. Maybe I'll rent it one day if the price is right. Bronxgirl, I also love WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH HELEN? although I do feel bad for the rabbits. If it's on Watch TCM, I'd l...
