Hi SkippyPeanutButter! I recently got The Blue Dahlia on dvd (finally) and it's my favorite of theirs. Now I have to get The Glass Key and Saigon. They were perfect for each other.
Have you ever seen Veronnie in Slattery's Hurricane with Richard Widmark and Frank's babe, Linda Darnell? I think it's a very, very underrated movie and Veronica just breaks your heart in it, she's so fragile and vulnerable. It was one of her last films. I hope The Fox Movie Channel airs it again because I want to record it badly.
hey sweet dahlink!!!
i loooooove the Blue Dahlia and The Glass Key! Saigon is probably my second fav of theirs next to the first two. they have to be tied! heehee!
yes i have seen Slattery's Hurricane! you know i thought it was one of her last films, but i wasnt quite sure then when i saw it. she looked older in it though compared to her earlier ones. my grandmama has it on VHS and but it isnt that bad of a recording, but in sure if it aired on TV again, it might be a little better. i wish it would play again. i just loved her character in it! its one of my fav characters or hers!

I LOVE pictures of Gloria Grahame when her hair is full and shoulder-length AND she's NOT SMILING. I think she looks her sexiest then.
hey cinie!!!!
i like those of her too, but i lean more toward her sweetness side with the dimples showing. i think she could really look pretty no matter how you take a picture of her.

Excuuuuuuse me? Frank is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than Gene!!! (Everyone prepare for an message board fight!) Lol!
Gene is a good dancer though.(although behind Fred!!!!)
I am not bashing your fave! Only my opinion! (Most people agree with you, over me SADLY!)
i agree whole heartedly!!!! heehee! i know most people dont agree with us. no offence to you genekgirl! we all still love gene kelly! heehee! but its hard to compare gene to freddy. they have such different styles. freddy was more swift and graceful, whereas gene was moe athletic and energetic. personall i would love to know what it was like to fly in the air and have gene catch you in his arms. heehee! phew! but i would also love to know what it felt like to twirl in freddy's arms too. (sighs)
they both looked cute as sailors though.

happy birthday BETTE!!!!!
my mom grew up in the 80s and knew this song as my age and i gt hooked onto it before i knew who she even was, but when i watched one of her movies one day and then drove somewhere with my mom, "bette davis eyes" played on the radio and it clicked in my head. i avsolutely love this song, so everyoe enjoy it as a wonderful tribute to this talented lady!

I've never seen Oklahoma! but the Gloria I love says, "I'm just a girl who can't say no."
you love gloria and you havent seen Oklahoma? you have to hear that high voice she has and that cute song she sings. her and "will" and so cute together and when they kiss......step back! heehee!
Thanks, girl! I'm gonna try to check them out. Gloria is an actress that I do look for when the TCM schedule is announced.
have you seen them yet? if you have, did you like them?
A Woman's Secret, which is directed by her talented then-husband, Nick Ray. The film also stars an actress I'm starting to fall for, Maureen O'Hara.
i saw that when it came on, frankie. i actually liked that movie. maureen and gloria looked amazing! they are both beautiful but in completely different ways.
yes i have seen both Human Desire and In a Lonely Place. i ddnt mind seeing them, but they arent my favorites of hers.i did think they were rathering interesting though. i thought she looked rather gorgeous in both though.
Those are my two very favorite Gloria performances to date.
i could have guessed. they seemed like frankie movies all the way to the endings. i must say that i liked In a Lonely place much more than human Desire, b/c she is a muderer in that one! the other one is in my eyes much more enjoyable if you compare them. she was more loverly in In a Lonely Place too. heehee!
-
that is an amazing story john! may i call you john?
thank you for sharingthat. im so jealous! heehee! that must have been fun to actually see frankie singing. was he as good live as he was on an album?
wow Alan Livingstone. that must have been special. did you get a chance to talk with him?
-
ill think on it.
how about the scene from Seargent York when he is talking to joan leslie and she gets so flustrated with him, that she gets up to leave, but she still loves him. it is too cute if you know which one im talking about. heehee!

hey sis!
which movies are you wanting us to ask scenes from, or are you asking for just any gary movie?
-
my mother has said multiple times that frankie has too skinny of a body and watched his movies with gene kelly all the time, therefore she tends to compare them to each other, even thought they have nothing whatsoever in common ecxept for the fact that they are both cute in my eyes. i still say he was cute even if he was skinnier than gene, what do you say?
-
hey iloveraymilland!
this is so great, thanks for that info. i just love frankie's recordings, no matter what time of his life they were recorded, even though towards the end of his life, you could tell that he smoked and drank for most of his life. nevertheless, i will always think his voice is so harmonious and will bring a smile to my face for years to come.
what is your favorite song by him?
theresa

Congratulations, MissTexasTea! That is the cutest little picture....aren't men in uniform cute?
why do you think i posted it? heehee! well it was one of the reasons anyway.
thanks sweet april!Oh, and the kitten and puppy are cute too.
i know, i love little kitties. they are the best!! and the little puppy doggy. oh they just melt me down!
-
oh frankie! i have a tear just visualizing that scene. heehee! thank you frankie darlin'!

i watched Mr. Arkadin yesterday when it was on, and it was to say the least quite interesting. i thought i wouldnt like it, b/c im not an avid fan of orson welles, but i didnt mind this one.
paola mori was quite pretty here and i thought she looked a little like Gina Lollobrigida. maybe i was seeing things, but when i first saw herin the movie i could have sworn it was her. i thought welles gave a great performance as well as akim tamiroff.

hey bronxie!!!
I think the only way you'd watch P&P is if it was a noir version starring another GG and had Humphrey Bogart as Mr. Darcy.
gloria grahame and bogie? in pride and prejudice? goodness me what will you think of next? heehee! i would like to have seen greer with bogie in The African Queen, in which they did the lux radio version together and were extremely
fantastic and energetic! i dont thik i could see bogie as mr. darcy though. for me larry olivier will always be my mr, dacry and maybe colin firth on occasion,but bori? my goodness. heehee!
you know bronxie, i think we should look into that movie with alligators taking a hold of greer. it might be intriguing. heehee!
