Richard Bakalyan is still with us? TCM needs to get him immediately to host an evening of JD movies.

Say Mongo,
I've read that Alan Marshal had a "chronic nervous condition" that led him away from the movies to preserve his sanity. I always thought that he was jaw-droppingly handsome (and often better looking than his female co-stars). Is it true that the poor guy died on stage opposite Mae West? Do you know the rest of the story about his problems?

You betcha. He portrayed the epitome of the cool, vicious JD: THE DELINQUENTS, THE DELICATE DELINQUENT, DINO (portraying a reformed delinquent; Sal Mineo is the real delinquent), JUVENILE JUNGLE, HOT CAR GIRL, THE COOL AND THE CRAZY and PANIC IN THE YEAR ZERO!

Mongo -- Any pictures of him in character? Preferably with a switchblade.

Moira, it looks like the gossip is true about the handsome Alan Marshal. Perhaps sexpot Mae West proved too much for the actor. Sad indeed.

ChiO, all I could locate was an image of Bakalyan making love and not war in "Hot Car Girl".
Perhaps you should write to TCM about Bakalyan hosting an evening of JD flicks. He is spry for his age and I'm sure he would love doing it.

Caught John Ireland in a truly bizarre little post-war film just recently, titled Wake Up & Dream.
He wandered in halfway through reel-2 to take over romancing June Haver for bashful, warbling John Payne, who felt the sudden need to revoke his farmer's exemption & inflict his bachelor frustrations on the Japanese fleet; Ireland played a wandering almost-dentist & tinker extraordinaire who likewise gets stunned to mumbling distraction by June's goofy pulchritude.
I'd say the movie's only saving grace was introducing the exuberant song standard "Give Me the Simple Life", which gets dragged back out every time the action lags. After beating that ace to death they fall back on (I kid you not) "We're Off to See the Wizard", which I guess they felt was appropriate as the whole storyline is supposed to be a clever little Oz analogy.
Small wonder Charlotte Greenwood look so embarrassed in her cameo as the well-meaning landlady . . this one clucked all the way to the bank!
