*I watched it on TCM and I liked it a lot. Wasn't he trying to pass himself off as a farmer or something like that, someone with no experience with guns?* glenn tries to pass himself off as a store keeper in that small town. he tells everyone he has no clue how to handle a gun, but when he gets drunk, he all the sudden pops up from nowhere and finds a gun and challenges everyone in the town. when he's sober he has very strick rules against using his gun just for the heck of it to show off.

*Nice caps, ButterTea! Is The Law and Jake Wade a favorite of yours?* i havent seen it very many times dahlink, but i remember watching it a few times at grandmama's house. i completely forgot about it, and when Michaela just jogged my memory i remember a lot from the movie, but there are still parts i cant remember. i wish i couldm, so im going back to grandmama's house to watch it again. how's your day been?

ooh yes, like the Fastest Gun Alive with Glenn Ford, who plays the fast ex-gunman trying to run away from his past and start a new begining with his pregnant wife (jeanne crain). unfortunately he doesnt get very far with trying to conceal his secret. they make such a cute couple too!!!

*He's really good in it - a lawman with a crooked past* thats what i like about that movie. there are a few movies with that sort of plot going, but not many. i love it when they have a secret in their past, but they are good now and thats all that matters.

*What do you think about adding Jimmy Stewart in Destry Rides Again ?* i actually had that one in my mind when i requested if i could make the list. im such a ducky! heehee! i cant believe i forgot jimmy! *And would it make a huge difference for purposes of this list whether someone is a sheriff or a marshall? I'm thinking about Robert Taylor in The Law and Jake Wade, but I think he was a marshall, not a sheriff.* i havent seen The Law and Jake Wade in such a long time! i remember that movie only vaguely. i wish i could see it again. i remember liking him in it though. back to grandmama's house i go! heehee!

*Mais oui. "Aupr?s de ma blonde" is another one of my favourites:* *http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNUT8Bgt--E* *Dans les jardins d'mon p?re* *Les lilas sont fleuris ;* *Tous les oiseaux du monde* *Vienn'nt y faire leurs nids.* *Refrain* *Aupr?s de ma blonde* *Qu'il fait bon, fait bon, fait bon,* *Aupr?s de ma blonde* *Qu'il fait bon dormir.* *Tous les oiseaux du monde* *Vienn'nt y faire leurs nids ;* *La caill', la tourterelle* *Et la joli' perdrix.* *Et ma jolie colombe,* *Qui chante jour et nuit.* *Qui chante pour les filles* *Qui n'ont pas de mari* *Pour moi ne chante gu?re* *Car j'en ai un joli* *? Dites-nous donc la belle* *? O? donc est votr' mari ?* *Il est dans la Hollande* *Les Hollandais l'ont pris* *Que donneriez-vous belle* *Pour avoir votre ami ?* *Je donnerai Versailles* *Paris et Saint-Denis* *Les tours de Notre-Dame,* *Et l'clocher d'mon pays* *Et ma blanche colombe* *Qui l'attend jour et nuit* hey Michaela!! wow! that is a cute french song. i think i have actually heard that before. i have an old family friend, Joslyne, who is from France and she has watch me grow and when i was a really little girl she would sing me these french songs, b/c i loved hearing her sing them so much! if im not mistaken this was one of them! it feels so good to hear it again! she is such a sweetheart and every time i see her, i still love hearing her sing those beautiful songs...thank you for sharing it with me! now it will be in my head the rest of the day. heehee! hey jackie! *My daughter is fine thanks, Greer! For some reason, I am the one who lost all the sleep! She seems bright eyed and bushy tailed....* oh sorry! heehee! well you know i meant you. *Did you ever sing, "Napoleon Avait Cinq Cent Soldats"? It's like B_I_N_G_O. You sing it through once, then start dropping syllables at the end of each verse. So the second time through it goes:* *Napoleon avait cing cent sol_ _ _,* *Napoleon avait cinq cent sol_ _ _,* *Napoleon avait cinq cent sol_ _ _,* *Marchant du meme pas.* *I especially like when there is only Napo____ left......* i dont remember this one... but its cute! she may very well have told me this one though. thanks! do you know any others jackie? -

*Great pictures, dahlink! I'm trying to remember if I've seen this one...somehow I don't think* *so because I would surely recall Angela. I hope TCM or Encore will air it soon, it sounds* *good!* i need a better version of the movie too. TCM needs to air it. grandmama is getting mad at TCM again b/c she says they never air the rare ones that she needs to rerecord. she still wants to take over for robert osborne for one whole year and make the list of movies for that one year and then she'll let robert take over again. heehee!

*I loved the technicolor- Greer's hair was so gorgeously colored. I liked seeing Rhys Williams- he is a favorite of mine. I pretty much like any movie he is in. Ian Wolfe was not playing a butler, so that was really something different! The whole thing was very sweet, and shows what a couple of pros like Pidgeon and Garson could do with fairly standard material.* *I have unfortunately been falling asleep during every movie I wanted to see lately. My daughter coughed and coughed all night long so all I got were bits and pieces of movies. Stars in my Crown started out great, but then about the time that Alan Hale was helping Juano Hernandez rebuild his farm, Kay Francis and William Powell came around the corner, being chased by Warren Hymer. They were spending a romantic night, before going back to San Francisco to fight with Robert Taylor in the Civil War! I really have got to see a movie all the way through one of these days.* hey jackie!! i have always wanted greer's flaming red hair! i unfortunately only have red highlights in my hair and actually colored it to try and look like greer's hair, but it wasnt bright enough. heehee! i love Ian Wolfe too, but it is weird to not see him as a butler. heehee! you get to see his versatility! i hope your daughter gets well again! im so sorry she has been coughing all nights. i do hope you get enough sleep. -

*Bonjour, Butterscotchgreer* *This is a good picture of these two. The facial expressions suggest, to me anyway, that they are not in character. This could have been a between-take still, yes? Or is this screencap of the actual movie? No matter, a good pic of Liz and Darce.* my own swasheroo!!! sorry i havent posted inP&P yet. its a long message. heehee im still working on it. actually the picture is a screencap from the original movie. one of the rare scenes where they are smiling before they kiss. heehee! it is from the scene when they are dining with Lady Cahterine Debourgh, Anne, colonel Fitzwilliam, and the Collins'. right when Darcy offers his arm to bring her to the dining room,, they smile for a brief moment and then Lady Catherine tells them they are to go with someone else other than each other. i love that picture so much! one of my fellow greer buddies says this is how he picture them in their married life after the movie ends. heehee! -

*I also love it when they sing "Fr?re Jacques"!* *When I was a little girl I listened to a lot of French children's songs, like "Alouette" and "Sur le Pont D'Avignon". So it kinda brings back old memories!* those are cute parts! i love how greer doesnt know what the words are, so donna "patsy" has to teach her. are there any other french songs you used to sing when you were little? -
hey dahlink! i watched the The Lawless Street not too long ago with Angela Lansbury and Randolf Scott when he was much older...he plays a really cute cowboy in his movies.

*Scandal at Scourie is kind of a guilty pleasure for me, obviously I adore Greer and Pidgeon working together, and le tr?s jolie jeune fille is so adorable, and the Technicolor in the movie is so nicely done! Naturally I had to record it, of course!* yay! Michaela! heehee! i agree wholeheartedly, i was so dissappointed when i found out this movie didnt do so well in box office, its such a cute movie that i always enjoy watching. it always lifts my spirits, especially when i see greer and walter laughing out loud in the garden and kissing of course. that little girl is soooo cute! i think her name was Donna Corcoran, and i knew her from somewhere before i knew this movie. she is! she was also in Dangerous When Wet, Million Dollar Mermaid, Dont Bother to Knock, and Angels in the Outfield. she was just all around the place. heehee! obviously walter knew her well, b/c she was in two of his movies. i thought her chemistry with greer was impecible and i love watching them together, always will! i love when she says repeatedly, "youre an unpimpled liar!" thats too cute! heehee! -

*No snobbery there that I can see!* ya see there?!! dahlink, i can always count on you to see these things. heehee! *Wasn't Angela in it, too? I thought I saw her playing the mean wife, or was that Deborah? I* *didn't have time to look closely. It is a depressing film (both versions are, in fact).* yes angela is in it too, and thats actually one of the main head reasons i wanted to see the movie, but they made her so mean! she played this cruel wife and i wanted her to be deborah's part! although i would never put down poor deborah kerr, i just wanted angela to get with walter this time. banana oil! but she was reallllllllly pretty in it. heehee! *How many cups? I'm on my second but I think I need to switch to coffee, I need caffeine!* im only on my 3rd cuppa today dahlink. im working on my 4th. heehee! you can have all the caffeine you want dahlink, i dont need any. my tummy will hurt if i drink any of that.
