I agree with this. One thing I love about Laura is just the look of the film. It is a beautiful looking film.

I always thought of Cloche hats being more close around the face. Gene's hat looks like a cross between a cloche and a 90s Blossom-style bucket hat.

I think I was specifically thinking of the gingham looking hat in the second picture; but yes, only Gene Tierney could get away with either of these hats.

I love Laura. I also own a copy. I also think it's really funny, especially Waldo. I love his bathtub in the living room. It always fascinates me when people in old movies are doing other activities in their bathtub, even ones involving paper! If I tried typing on a typewriter like Waldo does, my article (or whatever he's writing) would be a soggy mess by the end. Do you just never put your hands in the water? When Waldo is in the bathtub, there's a brief scene where you can see that Clifton Webb has swim trunks on. I always laugh at Gene Tierney's droopy hat that looks like she got caught in the rain.

I've seen part of 851, I fell asleep. I loved 854. That movie was fantastic. I think I saw 858 way back in the day when it first came out. I have vague memories of 860. I haven't seen the other films.

I loved Holden in “Network.” I think looking out of place was kind of the idea. He represented the “old guard,” and television as he knew it was passing him by.

I love her in Heaven Can Wait, even though she wears a hideous wig in the movie. I love Leave Her to Heaven. It's probably my favorite of her films that I've seen.

The "Produced By" is probably the person who created the show and is responsible for financing and more of the management aspect. The producers probably actually helped create the actual product. The supervising producers probably just managed the producers. I feel like the multiple levels of producer is the equivalent to multiple layers of VPs at a corporation. I believe in classic film at least, the executive producer was usually the one who helped secure the financing for the film and the producer probably did more of the actual work of getting the show/movie made.

I've seen and own both of the movies featured. I just like Gene Tierney... and the movies.

I think he may need to hire a different ghostwriter. She isn't too hot.

Lol. I'm trying to do all I can so that I'm ready to watch the Gene Tierney double feature. It starts at 5pm for me. Typing on the message board isn't helping. Lol.

I guess having Mildred still mourning Veda's arrest was a way to show her undying devotion to her children. I would have loved for them to add more of the storyline of Veda stealing Monty from Mildred and living the high life. Their affair is briefly shown and mentioned at the end of the film, but nothing like it was in the book. I love Veda, I wish that girl had gotten away with the whole thing.

I'm excited that the Kino sale is running through the 11th. I want to get the Ida Lupino set.

Are there any classic films where the villain wins? In the original novel of Mildred Pierce, Veda comes out on top; but of course, in Hollywood, that couldn't happen.

I'm interested in The Jazz Singer. I've never seen it before. I am also curious about Wings seeing that it was the first film to win the Best Picture Oscar.

It's airing at 11:30pm PST.

I've seen Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid as well, but it wasn't because of TCM. It was a blind buy used DVD that I got, thinking that I'd like it because of the cast. I've also seen Donald O'Connor in a couple other movies, but it wasn't because of TCM. I would also like to see both in lieu of two more viewings of Patch of Blue or more viewings of The Pink Panther series.

841 Room Service, yes (It has my girl Lucy in it) 842 843 844 I'm guessing is King Solomon's Mines, No. 845 The Music Man? No 846 847 Equus, No 848 Gorillas in the Mist, No 849 Sense and Sensibility, Yes 850 The Patriot, no EDIT: Crossing out "The Music Man" as Lawrence and I posted at the same time. I'm assuming that I'm wrong.

I use Chrome too. The saved passwords are in the menu, then settings, then passwords. Then you click on the eye next to the password you wish to view.

I love “The Brady Bunch.” I used to watch it on Nick-at-Nite and before that when it aired on TBS at 2:05 and 2:35 (or whatever times it was). “The New Jan Brady” was always my team name if I played pub trivia solo. ME-TV shows “The Brady Brunch” every Sunday morning 9-11 (pst). They’re into season 3 right now. I saw the episode with Aunt Jenny, the one where Bobby goes on Greg’s date with him, the one with “Scoop” Brady, and the one with Alice’s drill sergeant cousin Emma.

His copy of “Elements of Style” by Strunk and White must still be in its wrapper! I had a copy of that book as well throughout my writing courses.

I have some of my extra themes in my mind, but I have to get them all written out.

831 Not sure of the movie... I think the lady on the left might be Eve Arden. 832 The Fighting Sullivans, No 833 Brute Force, Yes 834 I recognize Carmen Miranda and Jerry Lewis... Not sure of the movie 835 Friendly Persuasion, No 836 I think that's Joan Collins... but No 837 No 838 Serpico, No 839 Dirty Dancing. Yes! I love this movie. I've seen it dozens of times. The best dancing movie of the 80s. 840 The People Vs Larry Flynt, No

I think I have Shadow on the Wall on my DVR. I'm looking forward to watching now in light of this conversation. Today though, we are having a Leap Day Robin Hood marathon. First up, my boy Flynn's Robin Hood.

Eve didn't have the schlemiel or schlemazel that Laverne and Shirley had though!
