  1. Mr. Osborne is a genius--It's his Assistant who allows such gaffes to get out and who should be fired.

     

    If I was his Assistant, he wouldn't be having all these clinkers--obviously his assistant knows nothing about Classic Film.

     

    Can you imagine what might happen in the Oval Office if the President had an assistant like Mr. Osborne's? Believe me, it would be something much more serious than blowing Joel Grey's name.

  2. I'm not an authority on Cagney--only Astaire.

     

    Where did you dig this one up?

     

    James Cagney and Joan Blondell appeared on Broadway in "Penny Arcade".

     

    WB bought it and them and retitled it "Sinner's Holiday".

     

    It's been over 25 years since I read Cagney's Autobio--are you reading it now?

     

    Bloody good question!

  3. Fi--actually Pat Boone made a lot of money "covering" black rock records for the white audience. Just as the black artist was about to make a splash with a hot 45--Pat covered it and took the mainstream audience. I believe his most famous/or infamous as some may see it was Little Richard's Tutti Frutti and then there was Fats Domino's "Ain't That a Shame".

  4. Miles--"Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart" was Judy's audition song at MGM--so the story goes.

     

    Next let her rip--

     

    "On opening nights, your name in lights,

    Why we won't stop 'til you reach the top--"

     

    Not hard--performer (s), movie etc, etc.
