OMG..soo funnie', "Working the Caftan on the Staircase". :^0 ..I bet she was "****", imagine 'Thee' Lana Turner in such a Sh.... movie! It did have a lot of potential and could have been 'almost' equal to Peyton Place...but you're right, everything from 'start to finish' was wrong about the movie except for the story line. Twink

They didn't sleep together or have sex after they found out they were half brother and sister. That in it self tells you that incest was very much part of the movie...

BITTERSWEET LOVE HALF Brother and Sister (shared same father) ! Yes I saw it and yes you are right, It was Very Very badly shot, framing, lighting, etc., I could not believe it ! In fact, because of the bad lighting , I did not recognize Lana Turner at first. The movie itself reminded me some what of PEYTON PLACE which also starred Lana Turner. Certainly Holme had no more then a walk-on role. I too felt riveted to watch it to the end, Only to see if they would stay togehter or not, thank God they didn't! Can't say I felt a sense of shame for watching it, after all, it was only a movie. Twink

<RO could have suggested that to Drew instead of Auntie Mame. He might have even 'blown her mind'! > LOL :^0 Very Funnie'

Leonard Maltin has crossed my mind many times as co-host. He would certainly be the 'Ultimate' co-host ! Twink

<"COULDN'T" afford to go .....> What an AWFUL , AWFUL thing to say to someone...talk about being "Smug", one has to wonder WHO is really Smug! You 'asume' Mr.Froy could not "Afford" to go...for all you know, he could buy you out!! ......smacks a bit of 'Cinderella and the Ugly sisters going to the Ball.'... Twink

Look at the bright side... If you miss it on Tues. April 30th, you can watch it on Wed. May 1st Twink

ROSS ALEXANDER

DEBORAH FORMAN - Valley Girl (1983) Twinks

I looked him up, just as I have to search most acters/actesses unless I recognize them. I remember reading and seeing pictures of Gisele, she was popular in Canada for many years! Twinks

MABEL TODD P.S. This one was before my time too!! Twinks

Senor Wences

...just a guess....'I' think she looks a 'bit' like Tatum O'Neil...that was my first impression..not about to do a search.

LOL :^0 ..too funnie' Twink

Boy did she Ever, my thought precisely....I thought I had the WRONG person for a minute! ...which just proves how difficult it can be to ID a person since they change so much over the years ! Twink

They both starred on GREEN ACRES Twink

Today has been an Exceptional, AMAZING Day on TCM !!!. How anyone can belly-ache about todays schedule is beyond me! Tomorrow appears to be equally so. Twink

Maybe you don't care for Bette or Astor but there are others who do! TCM is not custom made for you only...there are actors I don't like, but I don't 'bellyache' whenever they're on. Try AMC if you're not happy......hope you enjoy their commercials!!

While you're at it Miles, can you also acknowledge that I correctly identified STANLEY ANDREWS. Twinks

FLORENCE LAWRENCE P. S. Hamilton, Ontario is about 45 miles from where I live in Niagara-on-the-Lake, and is located on the way to Toronto. It is also where the first Tim Horton's Donut Coffee shop opened up, a Very popular chain here in Canada and I believe they now have locations in the US as well. Twinks

...kinda looks a bit like Walter Brennen...could it be? Twink

MARIE DRESSLER Of course I recognized her instantly from DINNER AT EIGHT, however, you had mentioned her on a previous post when I checked her bio and was shocked to learn that she was not only Canadian but from Cobourg, Ontario, a small town about 2 hrs from where I live ! Of course we are aware of recent (past 20 yrs or so) Canadians who have gone on to become Stars, however, I had NO idea of the amount of well known Canadians who were Stars back in the 'Heyday' of Hollywood, most of whom were from Ontario. Norma Shearer is another Canadian from Hollywood's Heyday and of course Mary Pickford who irionically was known as 'America's Sweetheart', (one has to wonder how that went over in Canada at the time). Twink

Zsa Zsa in a way , had equal standing with someone like Tom Cruise... In a way, she did, if not more so ! In her day, she had a tremendous amount of publicity, probably more so then Cruise, which is conducive with being a Star, most notably her love for diamonds, (and JFK). Only someone with 'Star Power' can comand this much publicity. Twink

To me, Jonathan Winters was Not a Movie Star, he was a comedian but did not have the charisma that a movie star has. Zsa Zsa, on the other hand could not act, but she did light up the screen and she did 'act' like a Movie Star. Twink

Yayyyyyy!....Thanks Miles!.....You're a Doll !!
