_Mildred Pierce_ Bette Davis and Rosalind Russell turned down the title role, and Barbara Stanwyck was very keen to take it, but Joan Crawford got in first and it earned her an Academy Award.

I always liked Fred MacMurray. I agree, I always thought he was so under-rated to. I was very happy with the films that TCM selected for Fred. I however wish they had included the film: "_Above Suspicion_" which paired him W./ Joan Crawford. Not the best film, but a very fun film! The Best Fred MacMurray films: Hands Across the Table Maid of Salem The Princess Comes Across The Egg and I Father Was a Fullback The Rains of Ranchipur The Shaggy Dog The Apartment The Absent-Minded Professor Bon Voyage! Son of Flubber Charley and the Angel Too Many Husbands Double Indemnity Borderline The Gilded Lily

*Did You Know*.........that Godzilla films released in Germany before GODZILLA 1985 had their storylines altered so that many of Godzilla's opponents were either sent or created by Dr. Frankenstein? Apparently this was an attempt to add marquee value to Godzilla films.
