Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
I haven't finished my chocolate Easter eggs and still haven't stared nibbling on my chocolate Easter bunny. Will power. (in the vernacular of Nat from THE LOST WEEKEND): Did you polish all of them off by now? Oh yes, they're now just a sweet delicious memory. We have a bagel place here that sells c...

I choose to believe the solar eclipse will have only positive effects here on Earth and as such is not responsible for Monday's LOVE FINDS ANDY HARDY.

Re: Coming up on TCM...
"Robert was a very serious guy" Translation: "Robert was essentially a fuddy-duddy from another generation so we brought you in to appeal to a younger audience. We also became woke for the same reason" Ironic, because the channel seems more "square" than ever before tha...

Re: April 2024 Schedule Posted, Marlon Brando is SOTM
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 ...

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

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
