Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Masha here is something interesting. I gave a talk at a high school and showed the Star of the Month Bette Davis by Meryl Streep piece. The kids had no idea who Davis was. They knew Hattie McDaniel (she had been mentioned in an Oscar acceptance speech) but had never heard of Davis. I had the honor o...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

knitwit Thanks so much, and please put a cold beer on ice near the coffee and doughnuts since we will be talking for weeks to come. PT I love Agnes Moorehead's radio work and we are lucky to have it. Her Sorry Wrong Number is soooooo great. I am not a fan of the movie. The radio version is perfect, ...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

PT-

I meant the one that you have posted. Highlights that great red hair.
You cannot get better than Agnes in Citizen Kane and yet most people only know her as Endora.

thanks.

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Thank you Sue Sue Robert is a good friend of Joan's so I don't see why not. I asked June Allyson about being on that picture with Joan Blondell (she was married to Dick Powell before June was) and she said it was uncomfortable. I LOVE Ann Sheridan and asked Jeffrey Lynn about her. She was just like ...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Hello Professional Tourist:

That is a great question. It is RKO so it should be available to us. And precious Joan Blondell got her only Oscar nomination for it. I know we have never shown it so I am happy to look into that for you.

I was able to meet Jane Wyman and she was lovely.

Thank you.

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Mongo Absolutely I remember you and Audrey. What a week that was. The name of the theater is the Fox. I will check on those 2 titles for you. I am wondering if I can report back my findings on the titles that you wonderful viewers have been asking about and any other loose ends next week when I am i...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

MikeBSG I agree not everyone will welcome Daisies but at least it is being aired. Hammer Studios - yes - October. And you know we are airing Stop Me Before I Kill - (that is the American title) - The Full Treatment is the UK title and is much better. Though not a HORROR movie, it is directed by Val ...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

moirafinnie BTW, I love that still of Gladys George you have posted. Another actor who was always good. For any interview such as Kim Novak or Ann Blyth, I am hard at work as soon as their appearances are confirmed. I go through books and newspaper articles and archival interviews to provided Robert...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Good morning feaito! As to TCM-Latin America, they have totally different rights issues so their programming is made up of television shows and movies that they can legally show. I think it would be wonderful if they expanded to show silents and I am happy to ask about that. Dodsworth! Wonderful in ...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Masha- Yes! The Insect Woman and The House is Black and I am Cuba should be wonderful also. I am delighted we are showing Daisies! I dread the message boards the day after that airs. Vera Kholodnaya sounds intriguing and I must research. Please tell me where to start. Two actors who we have highligh...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Rita- I find that I like watching new movies on my tv with closed captioning since the audio mixing is not always great and it really helps. We provide closed captioning on many titles and our goal is to put the captions on all titles. It takes time and money. But yes, I will pass that info along. T...

Yes it can be more difficult to research sometimes. When we celebrated -...

Re: WELCOME TO THE SILVER SCREEN OASIS, ALEXA FOREMAN!

Moirafinnie- thank you thank you thank you about wikipedia, and I meant to clarify that WHEN I see that one of our writers has used it, I circle it and delete it. It WOULD make us look sloppy and lazy IF we did depend on it. Check out the Michael Curtiz entry that has him at an early Olympics with J...
