Just a quick remark about that photo of Gloria Graham. I don't think there is a better word in the entire English or American languages that describes her better than ' s u l t r y '.

Harrison Ford can't be 69, this is why I don't watch any of his modern movies, to me he's forever Han Solo, a part of my childhood and my first crush.

What a winning picture that is! I don't think I've ever seen George Raft smiling before. He should have done it more often, it's charming.

Alison, Harrison Ford's wife Calista Flockhart (46) will keep that grandpa young for you.

Wendy, I agree with you about George Raft.

This item is from a TCM member who contributed to the CANDIDS thread:

The Raft-Lombard pic was taken on the set of her "Hands Across The Table," where Carole plays a manicurist (hence her outfit). They had made two films together, "Bolero" and "Rumba," and were scheduled to do a third, called "Concertina"; however, the success of "Hands Across The Table" in the fall of 1935 led Paramount to give Lombard top billing for this next film, and George wasn't happy about it. (The script may also have been altered to beef up Carole's role at his expense.) Raft walked off the production, and the male lead was taken over by Lombard's leading man in "Hands Across The Table," Fred MacMurray. The film's title was also changed to "The Princess Comes Across."

BTW, George and Carole had a brief affair, and Lombard reportedly told friends that purely in a sexual sense, Raft -- whose Hollywood conquests were legion -- was the best lover she'd ever had.
