I also was confused by her lack of presence in the second half of the film!

I love Ethel Waters' Petunia character in CABIN IN THE SKY. She's a loyal, generous, hard working lady who is nobody's fool!
-
I like Jane Powell's strong Millie character in SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS. She takes on the whole lot of them! 😄

The sinful story features Kent Smith as the doctor, Rosemary de Camp as the doctor's wife, and Robert Alda as the gangster who wants Nora all to himself. And frankly, who wouldn't..?
What I could never figure out was why Nora wanted Dr. Talbot. He was a clingy coward and she was smart, talented and compassionate. She should have gone for Phil; at least he was a man!

my wife and I constantly discuss some of your points. Who were some of the people in these films, especially the lesser known cast? What were their lives like? We often find ourselves on IMDB trying to figure out who they are/were. One of the most recent was a carhop in the film Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967). It ended up being Alexandra Hay, who passed at 46.
I do this type of "research" all the time, too! Actually, I think I do it too often and neglect the things I should really be doing. 🙄

And YEP, they're gonna show his Plane 9 AND Glen or Glenda flicks!

That's great; I like those films, too! 😄 Maybe it's because I'm a Sagittarius! 😉

But the films they are showing are still a good watch (my opinion, of course.)

I'm glad to see ORCHESTRA WIVES on the schedule as part of the Nicholas Brothers two film salute.
The first time I saw this film, I was expecting a breezy 20th Century Fox musical, but it is actually a really good film which happens to have some great musical numbers (and the Nicholas Brothers' dancing) within it.

I thought he was very handsome in FRIENDLY PERSUASION.

I'm enjoying NICHOLS AND MAY--TAKE TWO this early morning. This is the first time I've seen an AMERICAN MASTERS episode on TCM. Have they shown others and I've just missed them?

summer holiday
I enjoyed watching this musical remake of AH, WILDERNESS this morning while I was getting ready for work.
We don't get to see or hear lovely Gloria de Haven nearly enough on TCM (my opinion, of course).

I don't recall Walter Pidgeon having been saluted anytime recently (2014 was the last time, I believe.) I would like to see him get a day again. Actually, I think he deserves a SOTM nod.

The film which just aired this afternoon, DELINQUENT DAUGHTERS, would fit in perfectly in the Underground time slot, lol.

My favorite Leslie Caron performance is a non-dancing role: school teacher Catherine Freneau (Goody Two Shoes) in FATHER GOOSE.
She and Cary Grant were hilarious together!

The film which aired really early this morning, WORD IS OUT: STORIES OF SOME OF OUR LIVES was a really good and heartbreaking documentary. If it's on Watch TCM, I recommend it.

Hey sagebrush,
Thanks for clicking "like" almost everyday on this thread!
My pleasure! I like the photos you choose. I always look at the photo specifically and try to name the film.
I get a kick out of your commentary sometimes, too (i.e. "Milk on TCM" for SUSPICION)😄

Also Judy Holliday! Just posted a separate thread about her. Had an IQ of approx. 174 and her voice was much deeper than the one she used in her films. My Mom knew her.
That's awesome that your mom knew her! My mom was a long distance telephone operator in the 1950's and spoke with her once. She said the same thing- her voice was much deeper. She also asked my mom how she was that evening while my mom was connecting her call, and that impressed my mom very much indeed!

Triangle on TCM
moon over miami
I'm looking forward to this one. I wish TCM would show Betty Grable's films more often.

I would suggest SHADOW OF A DOUBT. It's very easy to follow, just under 110 minutes and the characters are relatable (even the villain, somewhat.)
