I was once. I was waiting for a connecting flight and had hours to kill, so I decided to have something there. It's as spacey inside as outside.

I think one or two have been shown, like Brian's Song. To request a movie, place your cursor on the FAN COMMUNITY button on the TCM Web page header. In the dropdown menu you will see SUGGEST A MOVIE, and there you go.

I believe it was Anna {font:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif}Magnani for her role in The Rose Tattoo. I second and third the call for her to be STOM. I don't know how far in advance they plan, but her birthday is coming up in June. Probably too soon.{font}

I hope you are not speaking from certain knowlege. I was going to record it on the chance that it would be better than the ones I've seen.

Just wanted to mention it because of Tulsa. Not one of her most famous movies, or particularly great. Just an ordinary story about cattle and oil in Oklahoma, but it's one I like. It shows off her personality and screen presence as good as any of her films. It's supposed to be in Technicolor, but I've never seen a good print.

The lady Bebe Daniels. The gentleman. . .Um . . .John Boles?

Ooooh. Hadn't thought about all you sensitive types. Just letting the guy/gal know they were right.

I don't think you would expect the characters to do the work themselves. Ultimately, it's not worth spending too much time debating the cars' abilities, after all, it's Hollywood, and it's the moooveees. Don't expect accuracy.

Would anyone think it likely that neither the hitmen or Bulitt would use their cars as they came out of the factory? If I am correct, both the Mustang and the Charger were favorites for rebuilding and suping-up.

Well, maybe one chorus of "Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man."

What you are recalling is not the world of your childhood, but the movie MGM made of it.

Bizarre. He's still great in Kubrick's films.

I was happy to see him praise Jane Powell's performance in Royal Wedding this morning. I feel she gets too little appreciation for her work. I haven't seen her in much dramatic work, aside from musicals, she got cast in romantic comedies. But from what I can see, she would do a great job. And dancewise, she easily held her own with Mr. Astaire.

Doesn't sound like his distinctive voice.

If you search on Google "Nancy Carroll photos," then click on the link at the top of the pics displayed, you will get a gallery of photos that includes Dabbsies. But I got the name by doing an advanced search on IMDB showing collaborations between first Misters Grant and Scott, then the lady heading their movie Hot Saturday's collaboration with Mr. Lubitsch (Broken Lullaby).

Don't think it's Dunne. She didn't make a movie w/Lubitsch.

Is that Nancy Carroll?

Sound may have added to Tati's movies, but the essential element in his work was visual.

Jane Powell's no slouch. Though not the elegant type Miss Dunne was, she could sing, act, and dance with the best.

(How do they do it?) Yes, it's him.

Because people look to their own benefit and convenience. And if they have the power to enforce wrong and injury on others they will do it, and they will not care about the justness of it. I know those statements are absolute. There are, and always were good people who knew what was right and were not influenced by contemporary prejudices. And not a few, either. There was, after all, a strong abolitionist movement for many years before the Civil War. And there were many people who worked against slavery, and to benefit and help slaves escape. During the Civil Rights movement (which I hope continues today) many people of all races exposed themselves to danger and suffered, and were even murdered. And these good people were not restricted to one region of the country (unfortunately, the converse is true, as well). And there are rare, very rare instances in film from the pre-civil rights era that there were people aware of the offensiveness of racism, and gave it the lie. One of my favorite examples is in a James Cagney film, Something to Sing About. His Japanese footman (Philip Ahn) breaks out of his fake pidgin and talks to Cagney in refined english, making the comment in conversation that he was expected to talk in poor English, and would be rejected if he talked otherwise. I don't justify racism and prejudice in older films (or contemporary ones, either) with the facile excuse that they were just a product of their time. Just as many people knew slavery was wrong, many people knew racism and prejudice were wrong. The examples of that in films are true flaws, and detract from their value. That doesn't mean I don't watch them, or think they shouldn't be shown, or don't enjoy the good parts of them. But I don't minimize the offence, or dismiss it, to enable myself to enjoy watching them.

Could you ever imagine this man being a king? Any kind of a king?: /post.gif]

People knew what they were doing was wrong back then, but they went ahead and did it anyway.
