OKEY DOKEY! I'm in! Just tell me what I've got to do. Make it obvious. Don't let me go searching for the thread.
Now when we're in the lunchroom...do I sit with the geeks & nerds or the fast cool kids? I gotta know how to dress for this thread.

Frank:"What's up, Liveliest Gal in Town -- You're a big troublemaker, CineBabe. That's why I like you, girl. Thanks for the love, Love."
You're welcome. The quickest way to this girl's heart is through your writing. ;-)

Nice to see your name and question again light up the board Poinciana. Let me add this contribution:
BARBARA BEL GEDDES in "I REMEMBER MAMA."

Robson didn't look a day over 110 in "Four Daughters." How did she keep her girlish figure?
-
Fred, the hottest cave lady on the tar pits 50,000 years ago was Wilma Flinstone and I don't think Tondelayo could compete with that.
CineMaven no like Johnbabe. She think he crazy.
Which man among you could stand up to the charms of Tondelayo? (Or Hedy Lamarr for that matter?) Would wilt like a little girl?
-
Hmmm...Kim Novak! ;-)

I'll take "Firght Night 2" please. Just check out the way the lovely Julie Carmen, licks the blood off her fang slowly, with the tip of her tongue. Now THAT'S acting!
-
Aw gee. And I thought you were talking about FrankGrimes. I'm disappointed. :-(

YES! That was quite a Hedy experience with "WHITE CARGO" last night. I never knew she had a caboose like that. A nice discovery. Poor Richard Carlson, I almost felt sorry for him. ALMOST. A little part of me thought he deserved to be tortured. (Is that mean?) He deserved to be tortured becuz he should've known he could handle someone like Gail Russell, or Teresa Wright, or Priscilla Lane, or Donna Reed; maybe step up his game with a Frances Dee or get his feet wet with Dorothy Lamour or Linda Darnell or Lena Horne or Ava. But HEDY LAMARR?? Dude, he was so truly out-classed diving into the deep end of her dark pools of beauty...he almost drowned.
I thought her best moment was being forced to take the poison (terror) and running and screaming. I never ever saw Lamarr really animated before. She was always like a statue, still...statuesque...a shrine to be gazed at and worshipped. I gushed...I mean, wrote about it in the Your Favorites thread on Hedy. Go over there and check it out.
Yeah...you can laugh at me.
D'ya think our boy FrankGrimes would've survived a nite of Tondelayo? Frank, if you're out there...how do you think YOU would do?

Hiya Edgecliff: "I had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Court at an event she attended with her husband Don Taylor sometime in the early 90s. I found Court to be a very sweet person."
Is Don Taylor, the same Don Taylor who was a director and the same Don Taylor who played the groom with Elizabeth Taylor in "Father of the Bride" and "Naked City"? Was she as beautiful-looking in person?
-
Holy mackeral. I never heard that story. Was Sarah Miles THAT much of a turnoff? Maybe Julie Christie would have had to be drugged if she had to do a scene with Jones.

Yes, it's cheating ... forty lashes with a wet noodle."
Okay...beat me daddy, eight to the bar.

Thank you SCSU.

Ms.G., I think you hit it on the head and I agree. Christopher Jones (from "Wild in the Streets") was just a representative of an idea: "The Tragic Lover."

My kid sister's name is Lorraine. Yep, named after the Nat King Cole song.

Hi Frank, Molo: "Maybe you're more like Bogie while I'm more Franchot Tone. I dream of Grahame, Lupino, Russell and Sheridan but I'll probably end up with Alice Faye."
You both write so well. Nope, I'm not sucking up. I've really been enjoying reading your exchange. Now, you've prettied up your talk on Double G becuz there are ladies reading this thread. So tell me...what are your REAL thoughts on Gloria Grahame. Gimme the locker room version.
And Molo, if you end up with Alice Faye...you'd be a purty lucky man. She was a ****! Sultry alto, cotton candy hair, peaches & cream skin; not bad. Lucky man. Phil Harris didn't complain.
-
Now this is sad news. And what a coincidence. I just saw her last night on a "Twilight Zone" episode. She feared a space ship was landing near her house. Mark Richman costarred with her.
Sad. She certainly was beautiful.

Cinemajestic: Perhaps stars are busy...perhaps it was a life of theirs soooo long ago they don't really want to go there.
Stars today just get put on the tabloids. It was such an age of innocence when you could write a movie star and get an autographed picture. My sister & I used to write Jeri Lawrence and send in 10 cents. That company used to send us autographed pictures of movie stars. (Hmmm, looking back, I doubt the stars REALLY autographed thoses 10 cent shots we got).
Arlann: I'm loving every little tidbit you share about Ms. Lamarr. I'm waiting with baited breath to see "WHITE CARGO" tonite.

"...They've given him a number
And taken 'way his name!"

As a Joan Crawford minion, I think Patric Knowles looks quite dashing in that shot below. Him, Richard Greene, Jeffrey Lynn and Richard Carlson were among the very handsome boys-next-door from the 1940's.
Gotta run and kiss Joan Crawford's feet. And Hedy Lamarr's a...

Hi MissG.: "I am not enraptured with Sarah Miles. She played the part well, I just would have preferred someone else---Julie Christie (of course!)."
You should be a casting agent. Didn't the young man who played the soldier remind you of James Dean? I think he was married to Sybil Burton, Richard Burton's ex.

Darn it. I have a MAC.

Here's where Ray Milland comes in.

Mother of Mercy! I hope that's far faaaaar behind. Dude, don't go giving folks ideas!!! B-)

Hello ChiO...How's it going? "If you see any fast cool kids, please point them out for me. I wanna know what they look like."
We won't see 'em. We'll read how smart, bright and literate they are; very few hee hee's, tee hee's, LOL's will be included in their analyses and they'll recognize the glory of Garbo AND Lamarr. Cooper & Grahame will be high on their list.
Sooooooo, where do I sign up and who'll start the ball rolling?
