This is a swell thread! Sorry it took me so long to find it. I love opera and classic films. I was happy to see that TCM released more Deanna Dubin movies in the recent Music and Romance Collection and snapped it up as soon as it was out. I find her performances refreshing with or without music. The...

Apparently, None But the Lonely Heart is being released tomorrow.

She's laughing because unbeknownst to Bette there's Ex-Lax in her Brownie; but Bette so delighted about the mickey she slipped into Joan's tea, she doesn't care anyway.

Yea, I missed this one. What a pairing though. I wish I could've seen it -- over the top or not. Come up next year Jezzy!

Lovely to Look At. Tony Duquette at last!

Did you attend, Jezzy? Were we under the same roof without knowing it?

I so wish I could be there! We have a big weekend at the Disney Family Museum celebrating the 55th anniversary of Disneyland that I'll be at. I think MoraldoRubini is going to be at the SFSFF. I'm hoping he'll get Bill Wellman, Jr (sigh) to sign my book. Kevin Brownlow, Bill Wellman, Jr, Jeffrey Va...

Sadly in 1968 his son stabbed himself to death while taking a shower. He left a 4-page good-bye letter to his father, with whom he was very close

Who was his mother?

I just noticed the photo of Joan Crawford shopping . . . in the one hand she's reading the label on a jar of olives for health reasons, I guess . . . and in the other hand she's holding a dog in a grocery store . . . hello . . . what's wrong with this picture?
