I hope there will be an extensive Star of the Month tribute with a long lineup of films. My heart goes out to his friends and family. And of course we'll have to have a proper tribute on TCM.

Garbo's birthday on September 18th will be ignored by TCM
Film_Fatale replied to johnbabe's topic in Your Favorites
I do think it would be a bit of overkill to show Garbo movies all day on 9/18 when we just had her in SUTS. -

I'm glad to be learning so much about Orson Welles, the man was fascinatin' Oh I hear he also gave a lot of career advise to Kermit the Frog during the filming of *The Muppet Movie*. After a hard day's shooting, the two would go out for beer and pizza. B-) -
Of course! I left *Funny Face* out of my OP, how silly of me.

So was Nov. 95 dedicated to _all three_ Barrymores?

Who are your favorite Tarzans?
Film_Fatale replied to brandoalways4ever's topic in General Discussions
> {quote:title=visualfeast wrote:}{quote} > Brendan Fraser: He looks good, but turning Tarzan into a buffoon was a turn off. Are you referring to *George of the Jungle* ? Strictly speaking, it's another character altogether. -
Betty Furness was in *Swing Time* with Victor Moore

Ford at Fox... and RKO, and MGM, and WB, and Columbia...

The Bogdanovich documentary is called *Directed by John Ford* and I don't think it has yet been released on DVD. The documentary she was referring to might be the one that is a part of the Fox Home Video *Ford at Fox* box set. -
I'm afraid I have to concur. To give him a day in SUTS so shortly after he got a whole month as SOTM would seem overkill.
