Actually, the Brazilian girl was writing a story about how a former employer was almost treating her like a slave, so no, I wasn't about to send her off into that night!! The strange thng about this community high school is that ANYONE can ostensibly saunter in (black cats, zombies, Hillary Clinton) -- it's FRIGHTENING. The doors are open, it's all very pretty and relaxed, but on the other hand, you literally don't know who's walking down the corridor with you. And South Florida has a long-standing reputation for WEIRDNESS.
Heaven knows what's going to happen at the Xmas party next week. I just hope Sir Lancelot doesn't come strolling in with his guitar singing things like, "Oh the school is ready for the holiday cheer, but soon they'll have to GET OUT OF HERE....."

Born free.....

I don't know about that, it looks like 100 million years old.

Great.
It's official: this should be included in TCM's Windy City tribute! (complete with the MST3K crew)
A real Chicago movie!!

I'd like to walk away with Bill Travers.

I was watching STINGAREE last night (or, as Una O'Connor says, "Stingy-ree!"), and Richard Dix (as an Australian bandit, if you can believe it) says, "Sheep are boring creatures."
I guess he's never seen GODMONSTER OF INDIAN FLATS.

LOL, oh, that's hilarious, nightwalker!
Do the grasshoppers, to ingratiate themselves with the locals, rub their legs together and squeak, "How do we get over dere to Comiskey Park to see da White Sox?"

Duane has no reason to be jealous.

lol, so true.

Okay, Miss G., I'm twitching my nose right now for the both of us!!

But I'm a four weather girl -- and it's SUPPOSED to be cold, for gosh sakes!! No salt!!! The nip in the air that heralds Fall, the crisp golden leaves that give way to the glistening wintry tree branches, waking up to the first snowfall, white and soft and shining, the clear blue cold skies, lighting the fireplace, building a snowman, bundling myself up in my spiffy boots, colored scarf, and snuggly chic winter-white down coat, taking a long walk and breathing in the icy pure crystal air on that New Year's day -- all this lets you know you're ALIVE!!!
Not wilting in subtropical HEAT AND SWEAT.
Okay, so February, March and April suck up North, but GIVE ME COLD AND SNOW FOR NOVEMBER, DECEMBER, AND JANUARY!

Fascinating, Fred.
I remember reading that because of "propriety" (even during a hanging) Mrs. Surrat had to wear pants instead of petticoats. I don't know if this is true, but I'm sure this is one sidelight that Ford couldn't dare film.

So Larry Parks as Jolson, meets Larry Parks as Larry Parks.
I always thought that was a bit surreal.
I guess if the real Al met Larry Parks, it wouldn't have been too believable.. Because Larry Parks didn't even bear a passing resemblance to Jolie!! Also, Larry's speaking voice isn't deep enough to suggest he sings like that.
But THE JOLSON STORY and JOLSON SINGS AGAIN were always played back in the Bronx, so I have a nostalgic affection for them.

I thought he was adorable too. And he had those deep eyes as well as that great hair. I think he was Lex, but can't be sure.
Which is why I guess he got cast as Snoopy, lol. They did an off-Broadway play with humans as all the Peanuts characters. And that actress with the dark hair who played the wife in the 1969 IF IT'S TUESDAY, THIS MUST BE BELGIUM, was Lucy! I can never remember her name; Rose something.

Methinks perchance he IS.

Agree.
What is it with comics -- they all want to be Chaplin.

Geez, it's 80 degrees down here and the damn sun is constantly shining!! I hate it -- I don't even know Xmas is coming!
Give me COLD, give me SNOW!!!! I WANT IT NOW!!!!
Okay, I vented, now I'll quietly slink away and leave this thread.....

I just looked up some info on centipedes. Seems they bite and inject poison into their victims.
I liked Dottie's screen presence and would like to see more of her work.
Nina Mae McKinney really sung that song GOOD.
I was surprised to learn Mackaill did Hawaii Five O.
Hmmm, I wonder if she was friends with Richard Denning.....(sorry, Duane)

Is the robot wearing a codpiece??

Yes, and he'd write things like "Frank Reicher -- he took us to Kong's Island".

LOL -- I was trying to forget it.

I'm speechless..
Is there some religious subtext?
I've seen some weird things in my time, but this almost takes the cake.
