>I'd add Dana Andrews to the list of actors who look better without the mooostash. Ha, me too. Bickford kind of carried the end for me....those gloves! I found him fascinating to watch.

Oh I am a ditz tonight! I forgot *Laura*! Alright, make *Fallen Angel* third. I haven't seen *Forever Amber* in an age... I wish they had shown it today.

Oh, I agree about the music, it was very intense. I think this is my favorite Preminger, after Bonjour T. That reminds me Maven, did they evacuate you there? I kept hearing about it, and was worried about you sticking it out at home.
-
Love the Lon pics... and the blog! Greta certainly was pretty.
-
I feel the same way about Andrew's moustache I hate it when he shaves.

We just got our first sign of real weather a nice rolling thunder clap...

I agree they are two sides of a coin, and Dana finally discovered who was really worth his efforts. I actually read your words about Dana as if you had said he WAS ice cream, and I was thinking how true he's yummy. Dana MADE that movie. I can't think of anyone who could have played that part as well as he did. He had it all down, the obsession, the fear, the paranoid behavior, and then the back story of his life, where you feel tremendous sympathy for him.... Ah Dana. I'm in a mothering mood.

Oooh, what spectacular John Gilbert photos, Jeff! And Metsie, thanks thanks for the Veidt photos.... that Gwynplaine photo is so emotional. Orlac was very expressionistic and Veidt was superb as always.

I'm a mush cryer too. I cried when I was a kid when my dad said he would shave his head. He had the bushiest head of hair, and I thought of it almost as a living being of it's own! Ha! So don't feel bad about your sweet story. I was just being selfish, because I couldn't imagine my dad without his hair. You on the other hand, are a sweetheart.

If we have power tomorrow, I'll watch it!

Ty's good anyway you can get him! But I agree with the rest of your 'no moustache' list....

I missed almost all of Linda Darnell day today, we had doctor's appointments in New Haven then stopped for a late lunch on the way back. I would have loved to see Linda and Joseph Cotten together, and Jeff Chandler is a bit under rated I think. I watched *Fallen Angel* for the first time, and was really caught up by it. it was filmed beautifully, with so many noir touches. I just wish it had a better ending.... the build up was great, suspenseful, making you think almost anyone was capable of the murder. I was actually expecting a bit more of a twist, but Dana, Linda Bickford, Revere and Faye were all great. Wouldn't it have been a TRIP if the murderer was Alice Faye?

oop...there you are! I thought so! Gable was close for me, but I can't help feeling so awful for Bogie, standing there in the rain.... a WOW ending, with the water washing the ink away.... he needs comforting.... and judging from his role in The Big Sleep, the rain brings out the best in him:

I'm wondering if the girls in NY lost power already? Or maybe they just went to bed. I just got a copy of STAND IN yesterday, the funny thing is, I ordered it before all this talk of the movie started, and before TCM ran it... I didn't even know it was going to be on. I'm a big Leslie Howard fan, but I have never seen it before. I'll be watching in the next couple of days along with THE MATCHMAKER... as soon as I regain control.....

It sounds like my cup of tea! I really like Garafolo, I've always liked her humor.
-
Oooh, what a choice, mm! My goodness, I imagine you would never even notice the weather.....
-
I agree about Life with Father - it's so charming, and William Powell is at his best here. Liz is really funny too. and Marty Milner is adorable!
-
I think Ty looks great in a moustache!
-
There are others to choose from. I think I know which one I would pick. For me? Definitely Bogie.
-
Who would you pick to wait out the storm with? or

Oh my gosh! The staches! I LOVE them! I've been waiting for the proper moment to post this.
