Hiya, Jackie F! -- Frank- you are a doll!
Oooohhhh, flattery! I'm a pushover for such tactics. You ain't too bad yourself, Dolly.
Thanks, thanks, thanks! for the screen caps of Molly from My Man Godfrey. I just love her!
I also love Molly. Do you know who my favorite character in My Man Godfrey is? It's actually Angelica Bullock (Alice Brady). She annoyed me right out of the gate but I quickly fell for her after that. I also love Cornelia Bullock (Gail Patrick). She's a smart alecky troublemaker after my heart. I liked Irene Bullock's (Carole Lombard) hyper-romanticism (
) and love-crazy antics but I actually prefer Carole's "Mrs. Smith" (Mr. and Mrs. Smith) to Irene. Carole's emotional range is off the charts in Mr. and Mrs. Smith but she's more focused and lovable in My Man Godfrey. She's basically lovesick.Great line from the GREAT Thelma! .....pork chop..... I'm still laughing! Butterscotch, I'm borrowing your hee hee....
Thelma definitely qualifies as a doll.
Hi, Whistling Gypsy -- Your comments yesterday about MY MAN GODFREY caused me to want to watch this old favorite again. Last night I pulled out my Criterion Collection dvd version and watched the film and now I have a question. I thought I remembered a scene in which Godfrey, after Cornellia puts the pearls in his room and before the police arrive, returns to his room and knows that something is wrong. He discovers what we already know because the dresser drawer is open and the bedspread is in disarray. Can any of you remember this scene or have I simply added this scene to explain what I think ?must have happened??
I actually just watched My Man Godfrey for the very first time this past week, so I'm not sure about the missing footage you speak of.
FrankG: I agree with you that Jean Dixon has the best lines, but Eugene Pallette has a few good lines, too. His companion at the bar comments that the location of the scavenger hunt is rather like an insane asylum to which Pallette replies, ?The only thing you need for an insane asylum is an empty room and the right sort of people.? His companion then directs him to look at the woman arriving with a goat, "Look at her, she's my wife! I've been looking at her for twenty years." His companion apologizes profusely, saying that he is sorry, "You're sorry, how do you think I feel!"
That was a terrific 30s interchange. Very snappy and very funny. I didn't think the film was all that funny at the outset but it picks up the pace rather quickly. It's a warm, brilliant screwball comedy.
Ciao, Miss Goddess -- I think FrankGrimes would say we are a dangerous "trinity".
"Dangerous" is one word, but it's certainly not the first one that comes to mind.
One of my favorite housekeepers is Velma Cruther (Agnes Moorehead) in Hush... Hush, Sweet Charlotte.
SERIOUS VISUAL SPOILERS

Mornin', Hunter Hearst Helmsley. What's shakin'?

Hiya, Ski Bunny Greer! -- thats so funny...."beat around the bush"...when me and kim made that video, i wanted to look at her when she said that, but i didnt. i started saying that after i heard greer say it in Random Harvest. heehee! i pocked on her about it after the video was made though.
You picked on poor Kim? How mean!
"Samantha" was a good witch who misbehaved on occasion, so if you were to be a witch, you would be like Sam.
wow! is that a compliment? ill take that as a compliment. heehee!
It's a compliment because I said you're not a witch and if you were a witch you would be a good, sneaky witch. I still have a crush on Samantha, too, so you're in good company.
It's much too late for the sweet talk.
at least i tried.
Uh-huh. You tried all right.
yes i did, and ill shout it from the nearest flag pole....."from sea to shining sea", heehee!
I do give you credit for going heavy on the sweetness. It's still not gonna work.
Bonjour, Missy G -- Frank---Hermione told me the only "antidote" to her spell is if you POST your THOUGHTS about a movie you WATCHED. Ready to feel better?
Who says I want an antidote?
It looks like "Paula" is also a silly goose.
-
Hi, Randy -- Frank you have great taste as always.
That's a terrific compliment coming from a guy who has an eye for beautiful women.
Linda's your #3 and my #2 but Arturo has us both beat as i believe Linda is his #1.
Arturo is definitely the biggest Darnell fan on the board.
P.S. -- I'm starting to fall for Gloria Grahame again. Here's hoping TCM is going to trot out In A Lonely Place. I have Macao on tape. I can watch that and drool over Gloria and Jane Russell. God bless tcm.
Gloria is #4 for me and Grace Kelly is #5. I do like my blondes.
Hiya, Miss Betty Idol -- Arturo, maybe Gene would have fitted the part better with her royal looks and the cold sting of her voice could have had Rex's charcater raking over the coals. But Linda was ravishing all the same. She proved her wide range with all those personality slips that she mastered to a T. I liked the movie so much because it was a game of the mind and how it can conspire to set you up for a fall.
You are on fire! You continually paint just the right picture.
Don't get me started on the glorious Gloria Grahame. She had an icy incandescence that could eat your heart out. Frank, you got yourself in a tight spot with all those beauties fighting for you.
If only it were true. If only it were true.
Hola, CineBaby -- I must see "Unfaithfully Yours." I've been a recent convert to Preston Sturgess
It's a different kind of Sturges because the film is psychological and the humor is on the dark side.
and Darnell is just about the most...most...ahh...The Most!
The Mostest!
In a Lonely Place

Beeeeeautiful pictures, thank you!
Melanie's the angel, she handled the situation perfectly.
You don't think Scarlett's an angel? She's a sweet, lovely angel.
Here's the sweet, lovely angel in tears after hearing the Goddess put her down.
-
Well lookie there, Grace isn't icy in that photo. She's looking mighty warm and
mighty fine. She's also wearing one of my favorite outfits in film history. I just love that
little pink number. It's very tasty!
Now here's my kinda girl: hands on hips in disgust! Now that's to die for.

Hi, Late Night Butterscotch! -- okay frankie i have always stayed away from Psycho, but i thought i would watch a little to se if i would really freak out, well guess what? I FREAKED OUT!! you would think a movie as old as this one is wouldnt be so terrifying, but it is , oh it is!! i screamed at the exact same time as the first woman he killed! so i had to change the channel. i was totally in a terror of fright! i cant watch any more of that movie and it was a total mistake to weatch just as much as i did. oy!
Here I go to all the trouble of watching a sappy Greer film and you can't even make it through my favorite Hitchcock film. I feel as if I have been stabbed in the heart.
you really need to see Pride and Prejudice frankie!!! greer and larry do the best jobs of performing my fav characters and their twoo wove is fantastic!! im puppy dog pouting! i mean how could you resist those pics of them!!
But what if the film gets too sappy. I might have to turn it off then.
what deprogramming? oh you mean the deprogramming of my mind, which you have set to fright? heehee!
No, I'm talking about the deprogramming of my mind, which you have set to "neuter."
what romance is there with jack the ripper? im sorry frankie, but i dont see that....i dont think you know what true romance is. april...bronxie...i think we all need to pull together and tell frankie what true romance is all about on the screen.
What if the man you deeply love is, unbeknownst to you, Jack the Ripper? "Paula" took "Smithy" in from off the streets without knowing who he was. What if "Smithy" had been Jack the Ripper in the life he couldn't remember? Would "Paula" still have loved him so? Don't you think Random Harvest would be better this way?
i strapped myself down and pinned my eyes open and watched
Random Harvest and Gone with the Wind... ON THE SAME DAY. Ugh!
we put you through such horrible phases darlin'. "life's tough...and then you die."....actually i hate that quote, and i have no idea where i got that from, but i remember it from somewhere.
I just need to wash the horrible Random Harvest and Gone with the Wind taste out of my mouth with some psycho stuff.
So you can use those arguments but I can't! That's not fair. Theresa-HopScotch--where are you? I need back-up.
that ISNT fait frankie, you have to use much better arguments thatn that. and you say april cant use those ,but you stoop to using them? what ARE we to do with you? this is a sad day for you, but not for us! heehee!
I was actually looking out for the psycho Goddess. She was lowering herself to my level by using my words and she certainly doesn't want to be on my level, trust me. I was merely protecting her like a gentleman would.
they are very clean and no dirtiness,
And that's a good thing?

I think it was having to go to Queens which scared the guys.
Oh, come on. If you are willing to brave it, I'm sure the guys would.
I guess ol' Pappy just doesn't turn the guys on. Unless it's...
I don't know what the heck that means...'splain please. Unless you're being provoking, in which case you can forget the explanation.
Provoking! And since you told me to forget it, I won't. Now if Ford is not to blame for you going by yourself, maybe it's, uhhh, the icy blonde with icy shoulders that's the problem.So when are you going to see No Country for Old Men?
Are any of them cute? I don't want to see a movie about OLD men. Especially old men getting blown into a million pieces.
All of them are cute! I'm an expert on the topic, too. Now go see the romance film. The love explodes (into a million pieces) from the screen!

Hey there, My Favorite Dictator, ChiO -- Please -- oh, please, Dear Creator -- don't let that be a Frank Grimes-list-in-order-of-my-preference list. Young Grasshammer, you must know that when it comes to Murnau, SUNRISE is first and THE LAST LAUGH is second; thereafter, the order does not matter.
I'm afraid to say, my list be in order of preference. Nosferatu and Faust are the most entertaining of the Murnau films for me. It's the same for Lang with me. Metropolis is often cited as his silent masterpiece, but I prefer Dr. Mabuse:The Gambler and Spies for entertainment value.
Hola, Miss Lonelyheart -- I may be going to see that "boring" movie tomorrow myself.
Well that statement speaks volumes. You couldn't find one guy to take you to a Ford film? Not one? I guess ol' Pappy just doesn't turn the guys on. Unless it's...
And a month later, The Stale Helmet. Variety is the spice of life.
I couldn't agree with you more. So when are you going to see No Country for Old Men? It's a film about men, so you'll love it!
-
Wonderful pics! I love seeing a soaking wet Grace! Although the poor little angel is chilly. Ahhhh, icy blondes. They warm my heart.
-
Ciao, Miss Violent Psycho Dame -- I cannot believe you are actually lowering yourself to my level. This is a very sad day for you. A very sad day.
So you can use those arguments but I can't! That's not fair.
Ohh you can use it, it's just that I'm stunned you'd actually pull up a chair next to me. That's the sad part for you. You've lost your way.
Theresa-HopScotch--where are you? I need back-up.
Now this is completely you, running and hiding behind a sweet, innocent girl.
The next box I'm getting is, ummm, a crappy one.
You mean a crappy, sappy Pappy one? Yay! What's the next crappy sappy movie you are going to watch in the mean time?
How Boring Was My Pappy is next for me, but I have been saying that for two weeks now. -
Good Evening, Lady of the Night (
)! -- You said yourself that just because people like to "watch" violence doesn't necessarily mean they are violent, so THERE.I cannot believe you are actually lowering yourself to my level. This is a very sad day for you. A very sad day.
To be honest, I can't really tell what's happening in those screencaps, they're so dark. Is that a seduction scene? I'll have to rent them (one day) to see for myself.
Yes, it's a seduction scene brought on by a certain "fella."
Did you know about the box set of "German Expressionism" coming out? Are you going to rush to the store to get it or do you already have most of the titles.
I am aware of it thanks to J-Girl, who actually informed me of it a few weeks ago. I don't have any of the titles in the box, although my brother has two of the titles. I really want to see The Hands of Orlac and Secrets of a Soul. I've never seen either one of them. The box came out this past Tuesday, but I'm not going to get it for awhile. The next box I'm getting is, ummm, a crappy one.

Hi, Miss Pot Calling the Kettle Psycho -- That's different! When they fight over me it's a delight.
You're nothing but a LITTLE violent psycho who wants buckets of blood to be spilled all over the land in honor of your love. ALL GIRL.
Lots! I've seen Sunrise and parts of Nosferatu and...and...and Sunrise. How many have YOU seen? He only did like 20 and I bet most of them are "lost".
I have seen seven Murnau films:
1. Nosferatu
2. Faust
3. Sunrise
4. Tabu
5. The Last Laugh
6. Phantom
7. Tartuffe

Faust

Finally! This thread had really fallen off in recent weeks with all the poor taste being shown, but just the mere addition of two Hitch posters has preserved its great merit. I hope you have learned the error of your ways, Kylefornia.
Thanks.

Hiya, Thoroughly Bewitching ButterscotchGreer -- in Bewitched, she was a good witch, glenda was the good witch of the north....just thought you'd like to know. now im not a good girl anymore. i actually have my hanky on hand now.
"Samantha" was a good witch who misbehaved on occasion, so if you were to be a witch, you would be like Sam.
It's much too late for the sweet talk.
at least i tried.
Uh-huh. You tried all right.
She was a good girl. She's since been poisoned. If I can just get her away from you and the other awful "A" girl, she may once again be good.
if you got me away from both of them, that would only leave kim, and then you are gonna pry her away from me, what next?! i'll be all alone in the world.
I won't pry you away from the "beat around the bush" gal. She's still innocent, although she needs to be watched.

-
Hiya, Jackie F -- I have to agree with you, Isabel is a drip....
A drip?
At least Ellen (Leave Her to Heaven) was all about loving a guy.
Think about Lone Star- I think it is John Sayles best movie so far.
I have't seen Lone Star yet, either.
I bet you have a thing for Virginia Mayo too......You have a masochistic streak.
I've only seen one Virginia Mayo film: The Proud Ones. Nope, I haven't seen White Heat yet. I do like Audrey Totter, though.
Howdy, Lynn -- Well, Friendly Frankie, you better have some bourbon or whiskey around when those noir dames show up on your doorstep because they like to drink almost as much as they like to smoke. You do allow smoking in the house for them, don't you? They'll be very disappointed if you don't and I'm sure they would be good at doling out a punishment to you.
You have a point there, Lynn. Maybe I'll try the punishment plan.
Well, just as long as it's not Vera (Ann Savage in Detour). -
Love that BronxGirl! -- Gloria actualy looks fairly attractive in that first photo, with those black gloves. She has a certain cat-like allure although she doesn't conform to conventional beauty..
"Conform to conventional beauty" are the key words. Guys and gals tend to view beautiful women differently. Guys don't always think in pure terms when it comes to beauty and my usage of the word "pure" does have multiple connotations. Gloria isn't a classical beauty along the lines of Vivien Leigh, Hedy Lamarr, and Elizabeth Taylor but she's gorgeous to me. I'm attracted to Gloria more than Viv, Hedy, and Liz. Of my favorites, I consider Grace Kelly and Gene Tierney to be the most beautiful but they don't always reach me sexually like Gloria does. Gloria just does it for me.
Did you know that she's descended from royalty?
I didn't know this. I pretty much view her as royalty.
What are you, Woody Allen --- attracted to girls who play games and are emotional train wrecks?? That ain't good.
I'm more on the compassionate side so I'm usually drawn to the passionate-types. Here's the catch, any girl without love in their heart ain't good. Those are the gals a guy needs to avoid at all costs. A highly-emotional girl who plays games AND is heartless is a no-no. That's a real femme fatale.My favorite Gene is Lucy, not Lucia. I like her plain and simple and a bit unsure.
I like both, but I prefer Lucia because she comes to life as Lucia. She's happy as Lucia.
I don't like her Laura character -- as Mark tells her, "For a lovely and attractive girl you sure surround yourself with a prize collection of dopes". She's too kind-hearted for her own good (as Bessie knows) but she's also pretty stupid. I mean, WHO IN HELL WOULD CONSIDER MARRYING SHELBY??? (except Judith) And if Mark looked like Wally Cox she'd NEVER be interested in him. So oily muscle is still the measure of a man with her. (along with his complete devotion)
Laura is on the immature side. I think she's the type that becomes more attractive as she matures emotionally. She's basically misguided. Mark could be the guy that reaches her, but something tells me that he probably is not. I'm not sure he's dynamic enough.
Carol Lombard, eh? I hear George Raft said she was the "sexiest broad" in the world with a mouth like a sailor. He caught her in her dressing room **** as a jaybird, powdering herself, and was completely unselfconscious as he was ogling her.
I don't find Carole to be a classic beauty and she's not necessarily super sexy, but her personality reaches me sexually. It's her emotional energy combined with her unique beauty that generates the sparks with me.
Double G over Crain?
Mmmmm hmmmmmmmmmm!
Now Joan and Constance are fine, but you know that's not the B family I'm talkin' about.
Are you trying to strip me of all my manliness?
-
Hi there, Fordy Guns -- Lol...you get some points there for giving so much shelf space to a sappy hack director you don't like.
And you get some points for calling Ford what he is, a sappy hack director. So how many F.W. Murnau films have you seen, Mrs. Sappy Hack Director?
Laughing or taking extreme pleasure in?
Not even laughing at but with
I'm not buyin' that one.
I'm not the one who likes violent scenes and psychos.
Aren't you the gal who says she likes it when a guy fights in her honor or when two guys fight over you, Laurie? You love to present a sweet face to your adoring public but there's a hidden lover of psycho violence living inside of yourself. You can fool Butterscotch, but you can't fool me.
Howdy, Bronx Blossom -- So were you attracted to Scarlett?
Mmm hmmmmmm! I knew I would be, too.
She's the perfect combo for you -- the cute girly-girl and the gritty tough broad.
She's perfect for me because she's an emotional train wreck who plays games. Never a dull moment with that vixen.
But you've got to keep her in line or she'll walk all over you.
It's impossible to keep Scarlett in line. It's best you let her walk all over you. Well, it's best to let her believe she's walking all over you.
You're fixated on Gloria,
Mmmmm hmmmmmmmmm!
but imo she's not EVEN PRETTY!!
Hey! Gloria is a darling little angel full of sweetness. She's not Grace Kelly in terms of natural beauty, but I find her intoxicatingly alluring. I love her eyes, lips, and hair. I also love her Betty Rubble voice. It's a major turn-on for me. And of all the classic actresses I have met up with so far, Gloria is the one who speaks to me sexually the most. Claudia Cardinale is second on that list. Linda Darnell, Joan Bennett, and Carole Lombard (a wild cat!) are a few others who do the same for me.
I once read that she put tissues behind her lips to pouf them out more. I'm not sure this enhanced her look.
This is true. Gloria was very insecure about her upper lip being too thin, so she used tissue to give it a fuller look. She would actually do kissing scenes with the tissue and actors would sometimes get a mouthful. I could go for some tissue right about now.
I actually love Gloria's thin upper lip because I fawn over her poutiness.
You don't really want to be in a lonely place, do you??
I've been told this.
Wouldn't you rather be enscounced at Gull Cottage with a sweet woman (okay, she's got a ghost fetish, but you can turn her around with your alive self)
With Gene Tierney? Ahhh, yes. That would be very nice. I do love Lucia. If I had to pick one Gene character I'd want to be with, it would be Lucia. She's a doll.
Wouldn't you rather have lovely Jeanne Crain in your arms instead of the hot-blooded but untrustworthy noir babes? I realize Linda Darnell is pretty nigh irresistible but these ladies
are exhausting and they'll ultimately betray you.
We're in CineMaven country with Jeannie Crain. Would I rather be with the "gal with the hoe" versus EBH? Yes. Ellen is a little too much for me. I actually like Ellen more than Isabel (The Razor's Edge), though.
Noir babes vs. Crain? That depends on which ones. I'll take "Stella" (the pretty nigh irresistible Linda Darnell in Fallen Angel) over Crain. I'll take Double G over Crain.
But, you are correct, I'd much rather be with a sweet girl than a bad girl. I prefer sweet girls who have a sneaky bad side. Sweet and sour.
RANDOM HARVEST is a step in the right direction, but it's still not good enough, my friend.
You need to spend some time with the Bennett family.
But I have been spending time with the Bennett family. A lot of time.

Howdy, Lady Lynn! -- I'd stop worrying about your wounds as MissG
(or is it BGirl) with the voodoo pins will be sure that you are always in pain.
One has pins and one has pins AND claws.To get your mind off the pain, I suggest (rather than insist, because that just isn't
polite) the following: Obsession You owe it to yourself to watch this one, esp. given
how much you love Vertigo
I have not seen Obsession and I am a De Palma fan.
The Ford films- You can only put them off for so long before the other two ladies
humiliate you into submission so I will wait patiently but you are missing some great
movies by being so obstinate.
"Obstinate." Now that's a word I have heard quite a few times from a sneaky girl in a skirt.
I do own 16 Ford films on DVD now and that could go up to 22, so it's not like I'm totally
obstinate.
How Green Was My Valley is next, but I've got another valley tovisit prior to that. Maybe I'll visit both.
The Professionals Lee Marvin and Burt Lancaster and one of your faves, Claudia
Cardinale plus you get to hear Burt say "Hello Baby" in that great way he has.
The Professionals? Do you really think I'd like that film?
The Professionals isa very enjoyable western. I call it the "A-Team" western.
Point Blank Lee Marvin as a hit man with Angie Dickinson for you. She beats Lee
with her purse.
I love Point Blank. It's one of my favorite films from the 60s. I'm definitely a Lee
Marvin fan. Many of us guys are. Many of us guys are bigger fans of Angie.
Eight Men Out John Sayles takes on the Chicago Black Sox story. Why? Because
modern movies can be good too.
I've also seen this film, but it's been years and years since I last saw it. It's one of the
best baseball films ever made and I'm pretty darn critical of such films since baseball
is my favorite sport.
Have you seen LA Confidential. You should. You'll love Kim Basinger.
I have not seen L.A. Confidential yet. I'm pretty sure I'd like it, though.
Really Frankie, there is nothing as good as spending an evening with a good film
and a good drink.
I'll go with watching a film with someone you deeply care about as an enjoyable
evening. I'm someone who gets intoxicated on people versus drinks.
Howdy, Fordy Guns! -- I'm starting to feel a lot like Peabody
Oh my, I must admit I'm still laughing at that one! Hee!
Laughing or taking extreme pleasure in?
Let the deprogramming begin:
"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune
must be in want of a wife"
That line must have been written by a single woman in search of a man in possession
of a good fortune, because that's the only way it makes any kind of sense.
The always sexy Claudia Cardinale in The Professionals

Hola, Sheriff Butterscotch -- his mr, hyde might go away more and more
if he would watch more of those kinds of movies. he might even become sappy.....well
thats probably an overstatement. watching films like A Clockwork Orange is ruining
his perspective on the whole world. he thinks everyone has to be a murderer to lead
a happy life. i mean he wants smithy to be a serial killer!!
I'm actually starting to get A Clockwork Orange feeling with all this deprogramming
going on.
Smithy would be far more interesting of a character if he was Jack the Ripper. Paula's
unconditional love would be pushed to the limit in such a setting. Now that's romance!
Love that Bronxgirl! -- Wait, I'm reading that you say you HAVEN'T SEEN A
VIVIEN LEIGH OR GREER GARSON MOVIE??? Are you just funnin', or is it true?
I'm just funnin'. I strapped myself down and pinned my eyes open and watched
Random Harvest and Gone with the Wind... ON THE SAME DAY. Ugh!
I need to grab me some Gloria Grahame and find a lonely place where she can kiss
me deadly.
Have you seen the 1940 Greer Garson-Lawrence Olivier PRIDE AND PREJUDICE,
and loved it?
No, and I'm thinking it's going to be a mortal lock that I'm not going to love it.
If you have and did, you are redeemable.
I'm irredeemable! That's quite evident.
And I was hurrying you to see CROSSING DELANCEY. You can't see Amy Irving
and the Pickle Man until you've seen GWTW, P&P, A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE.
I've seen the overcooked Gone with the Wind but I haven't seen the other two.
"Blanche" looks to be my kind of dame, though.
Bonjour, Miss Never Hungry Again (
) -- Lol! He just keeps feeling nostalgiacfor the "good ol' days" at the Bates Motel when people didn't bother him about missing
persons. He feels he has to compensate for the loss of those halcyon times. Maybe,
as you and Bronxie say, Mr and Mrs Darcy will lead him back on the right path.
You seem to be a little tense. I think a nice, warm shower would do you a world of good.
Don't resist, Frank! Can three beautiful women be wrong?
Can any woman be right?
:p The pickings are looking mighty slim in this group.Hey, Jackie F -- Oh, Frank, how can you resist such a beautiful picture?
C'mon. Watch it. You can do it. Put aside "The Long Riders" "The Dirty Dozen" and
"The Wild Bunch". Come have some tea....
... and play with you forever and ever and ever. Redrum! Redrum! It's more
like: Retuen! Retuen!
I'm starting to feel a lot like Peabody
-
oh we do not. mr. dramatic king isnt he april?
Yes he is. I think it's from watching too many films noir and movies like A
Clockwork Orange. Now, if he'd just see more Greer Garson and Vivien Leigh
movies, he'd calm down and get some perspective!
More Greer and Viv? I've yet to see even one of their films. I guess that constitutes
more. Plus, how would watching Greer and Viv cure me of my dramatics? That
would seem to make me even worse. No, I think I need to scope more films noir
and more films featuring psychotics and buckets of blood to cure me of my "dramatics."
-
Hola, Miss Bad Influence -- Butterscotch doesn't sniff tea! How shocking! She's a good girl.
She was a good girl. She's since been poisoned. If I can just get her away from you and the other awful "A" girl, she may once again be good.
Hi, Ex-Good Girl Greer -- i am wriggling my nose. wriggle wriggle! and KABOOM!
Ohh, you're not a witch. You may not be a good girl anymore, but you're not a witch.
me and april still love you.
It's much too late for the sweet talk. I'm gonna look up "Kitty." I heard she's available.
-
Hiya, BronxBabe -- My pins are at the ready.
I bet you just had them sharpened, too. By the way, if you ever run out of pins, there's a whole bunch stuck in a certain gal's hair around here. Just grab a handful.
Hey there, Ma Mean Daisy -- Let's see, one side is sneaky, one is naughty, one is icy, one is dramatically funny, one likes electrical shock, one carries a garter gun, one carries a voodoo doll, one insists I watch Harvey, and one is very lively. Sybil is exceptionally crazy.
thats quite a list you have there. im not so sure you can take care of them all.
They seem to do a good job of taking care of me. I've got the bruises to prove it.
Howdy, Lynn -- So, Frankie, have watched it yet? You'll feel much better after you do.
I haven't watched Harvey yet. I've been too busy soaking my wounds. I may need to feel better after the past few days around here. I'm clearly in need of mental assistance if I'm posting Gone with the Wind caps.
And for the record, there are other films I insist you should watch as well.
Obsession and Ford films. What else? You're getting to be worse than the Goddess. I've been holding off and holding off on that Wayne/Ford box set yet you keep on pushing me and pushing me to my doom. I know one thing is probably for sure: She Wore a Yellow Ribbon cannot be any worse than Gone with the Wind. Talk about a CHORE.
) and love-crazy antics but I actually prefer Carole's "Mrs. Smith" (Mr. and Mrs. Smith) to Irene. Carole's emotional range is off the charts in Mr. and Mrs. Smith but she's more focused and lovable in My Man Godfrey. She's basically lovesick.
