Moira and others.... One thing that I'm beginning to think might be needed is a forum entitled "The Stars". Or Maybe even "The Stars and the Directors". I know I've already set up a bunch of forums all on my own and stuff...but I wanted to run this by you at this point because w...

Well, we really should begin one...it's tradition, at this point. But seriously...we can't really put it in Westerns...and we can't really put it in "Production Code Era". And we can't really put it in "Silents and Precodes' So what to do with poor Coop? Good thing I'm not drunk with ...

I look forward to your impressions of CAL. If you care to, I highly recommend Gene Fowler's biography of John, called Goodnight, Sweet Prince: The Life and Times of John Barrymore . It's an affectionate account of the man who was his friend, and one of the best books of its kind I've read. It is po...

It absolutely annoys me...the only redeeming factor being that it gives Jon Stewart more to make fun of. :P In fact, not only is it annoying - it is often destructive. Because once the commentators and pundits run out of actual NEWS, they resort to personal political or social commentary, just to fi...

I think my pet peeve is the networks utter lack of creativity.

One LAW & ORDER good?

Well, then....twelve must be BETTER! Until we are all so sick of LAW & ORDER that we are ready to throw something at the TV.

Same goes for CSI.

A thread dedicated to Gary Cooper artwork.......would finish me!! *thud* He deserves a whole Metropolitan Museum as far as I'm concerned!! You know...I've been tossing around the idea of starting a thread for him here. Like at TCM. But I think I'd start it under 'The Essentials'. I mean...that thre...

I'm a big fan of JB. His appeal is not so different from Errol's, and it is hard not to make the comparisons. Well, as you might imagine, that was my original chief reason for getting interested in him. His real life relationship with Errol...as well as the fact that Errol (sadly) pretty much follo...

Well, there are about 4 posters over there who need to be banned in the worst way. But if the TCM Admins don't have the time or resources to chase down all of their duals (and I'd place money on at least 3 posters over there running multiple accounts), it's gonna be for naught. Running a public mess...

Reminder to Gary Cooper fans - May 22nd is the Big Day!

Really posting this more for any new posters that might arrive here than anything else, as all known Gary Cooper fans from the original TCM group are well aware of the hugeness of this date. :P On May 22nd, the following Gary Cooper films are set for release on DVD. So get those change purses ready!...

You know, I didn't even know this set existed until you just mentioned it.

I'm glad you did - I put it on my wishlist at Deep Discount DVD. Although it's $54. there....

Where did you find the $40 price?

Ina Balin & Myrna OOOOOOHHHHHHHHH ! :wink: I know! I'm excited about Myrna. But I'm exhausted. I don't think I've spent this much time in PhotoShop during the course of one day EVER....unless the subject was Gary Cooper! ...Who I could pretty much look at for the rest of my life without break. ...

ptrekgirl, This one of Ina Balin is slightly too large. Can you trim it for me? I swear, this looks just like me in high school. Eerie! Not so much now, I'm afraid. Since Ina left us all too soon, who knows if we might have grown to look the same in middle age. Many thanks. Judith http://moviestar-...

I'm sure everyone would be impressed, it was a work of art, and as you say, you had marvelous "material" to work with! Well, there is that, isn't there? :lol: That photo of him slouching in the chair is one of my favorites. Maybe I should make a whole THREAD dedicated to Gary Cooper art! ...
