Yep! And it was an excellent choice as a side dish with their..ahem..Sweet & Sauerbraten Pork, too!
(...which as I recall was on their "Column-A" menu!)
-
>Shame on Ester Williams for revealing that, especially since Chandler's daughters were exposed to such gossip.
Well Joe, then this must explain why your caption read, "Jeff Chandler and Angie Dickinson making eyes at each other"...and NOT, "Jeff Chandler complimenting Angie Dickinson on her taste in dresses" then, eh?!
(...sorry, couldn't resist!)
-
Yeah, and the Schnitzel Foo Young wasn't bad either!
-
Yeah, well look at it THIS way then rh222...maybe if it wasn't for the Marshall Plan, we NOW wouldn't be able to purchase the best enginnered cars in the world, EH?!
(...oh, and btw, I watched Europa '51 last night and enjoyed it and its premise about a Christ-like woman's struggles in the "real world"...you remember Christ, don't ya?!...yep, he was the guy who said somethin' about forgiving one's enemies!...and dude, THIS isn't comin' to ya from some Bible-Thumper here...nope, this is comin' to ya from a guy with an agnostic POV)

Thanks for posting this, Fedya. Yep, it was an enjoyable read for me especially, and probably because when I was in my mid-20s, I was absolutely hooked on those late night reruns of Groucho's show that were telecast on KTLA back in the mid-70s.
I did vaguely remember watching "You Bet Your Life" as a small child in the '50s, but recall more vividly my parents both laughing up a storm while our family sat around that old 17inch B&W Philco TV and enjoying Groucho's antics, his quips, and trying to answer the questions he posed to the contestants.
And then later on in the '70s and when I lived in my own apartment, and as I mentioned earlier above, watching his show as an adult and more able to appreciate Groucho's wit and humor was a real bonus, for which it appears I now know thanks to you, I owe a debt of gratitude to his grandson Andy.
(...oh, and to Jaaaaack too, of course)

Gene Hackman, one of my personal all-time favorite actors, stars in two very well done courtroom dramas of fairly recent vintage, and which contain a number of terrific and unforseen and yet believable twists and turns:
1991's Class Action
-and-
2003's Runaway Jury

Wow Fred! Your story of the Jewish lady from New York who moved to California reminded me of the time I ate at Adolf Wong's combination German-Chinese Restaurant on La Brea just north of Melrose.
Yep, the food was pretty good, but only an hour later I got hungry....for power!)
(...sorry, couldn't resist)
-
Now what does the voice of Fred Flintstone POSSIBLY have to do with Rock & Roll??? "ROCK" maybe, but certainly not "Roll"!!!
Oh...wait a minute. You said "Alan FREED" with an "F" there, didn't ya!
Sorry...never mind.
(...yeah, yeah, I know...not one of my better ones, huh!)
-
Wow, I've never watched The Prizefighter and the Lady, Andy, but from your description of the history behind it, I'd like to. Thanks for the heads-up here.
(...and now here's somethin' I'll bet YOU didn't know...In an ironic coincidence, Primo Carnera JUNIOR once starred as the dim-witted Jessesthro in the Italian sitcom "The Monteverde Hillbillies", which was of course the story of a poor rural Tuscan family that finds sudden wealth by happening upon a new strain of Chianti grapes and ends up moving to the ritziest part of Rome, and where comic mayhem soon ensues!.......sorry, couldn't resist that one)
-
Yep! And while Ludwig's Sixth Symphony is playing, of course!
-
And THIS is where they cut the scene of Chuck Heston running up and saying...
"NOOOO! Green Weirdos are PEOPLE!!!"
(...yep, he just happened to be in that supermarket too)
-
Here's one I believe...
And who would've guessed that Mr. Wolfe was actually an American, born and bred in Illinois?
(...bet you folks thought he was British, didn't ya!)
-
Yeah, well, five'll getcha ten that as soon as finance sees this, HE'S gonna tell ya that "The City of Brotherly Love" was/is an even BIGGER "Rock & Roll town", Hibi!
(...wanna bet?!)
-
Oh, and btw Sepia...re "Blondie"...
While I always thought Debbie Harry was hot(especially those pouty lips o' hers), I was never a big fan of their music. HowEVER, while YOU might not consider Blondie as "Rock & Roll", evidently that institution sitting there in "The Mistake By The Lake"(otherwise known as the city of Cleveland Ohio), the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, must have considered that group as "Rock & Roll" 'cause Blondie was inducted into their Hall of Fame rolls in '06.
And so who are WE to dispute that "hallowed" institution's decisions, huh?!
(...well, OTHER than maybe their decision to locate in CLEVELAND OHIO of ALL places!!!)
-
Hey dude! Don't blame ME if you've always suffered from terminal "White Man's Disease"!!!
(...no rhythm and can't dance!)
LOL

>Prior to seeing "Cinderella Man," I'd never even heard of Carnera. So seeing what he really looked like was kinda cool.
Professional westler and actor Mike Lane did an excellent job of portraying a thinly disguised Carnera in Bogie's last film, 1956's The Harder They Fall, dp.
-
Actually Addison, I got the impression that this "Joan visits the Supermarket" film was primarily made for some Pepsico insiders and maybe shareholders, and wasn't really meant for mass public consumption.
(...you know...kinda like that "47%" comment that a certain guy made to his supporters in a small room a while back!!!)
ROFL
-
Yeah, well, evidently Froy my man, there's a few folks on this thread who've pretty much already stated that they "won't get fooled again", anyway!
-
Oh YEAH! "Funky-licious", baby!
-
>And finance, I personally find it hard to believe that ANYONE can actually "groove" to DISCO!
Now c'mon here, Sepia! Are you gonna sit there and tell me that EVEN whenever you hear the opening downbeats of The Trammps' "Disco Inferno"(maybe at some wedding reception or somethin') that you don't start at least bobbin' your head to that number???
(...burn baby burn...RIGHT finance?!!)
-
Well Hibi, with 1/6th of the world's population being Catholic, do you think the Media is gonna even consider giving this coverage short shrift? I mean, there's a lot of potential ratings points there, ya know!
(...but to answer your question here, it seems to me the only thing that comes close is maybe whenever the Media starts their rendition of "Hello Dalai" whenever THAT "Enlightened One" makes it to our shores!)
-
So that's probably why she allowed that little brat to address her as "Joan" instead of "Miss Crawford", eh?!
-
Oh SURE, you two! Go ahead and scoff at all this Pope stuff here, if ya want.
(...but remember, there's STILL a whole lot of folks out there who see Jesus's face on the occasional potato chip OR the Virgin Mary's image on a tree trunk, so what say we don't deny those folks from all their "excitement" here, OKAY???!!!)
LOL

Hmmmm...The Man Who Never Was sounds a little like Sturges' 1976's The Eagle Has Landed, in which Donald Sutherland plays an IRA member in cohoots with the Germans to kidnap Churchill.
Great ST Pattys Day Movies on TCM Sunday.... Happy St Pattys Day !

>I just knew my anti-semitic Grandfather on the other side of my family was spinning in his grave!
So, kinda like the idea of the revolutions George Wallace would probably be doin' 6 feet under if any of HIS progeny were ever found to have Sickle Cell Anemia, eh Sepia?!
