johnm001, do you a Region 1 (North America) DVD of WHISTLE DOWN THE WIND? I haven't been able to find one.

Yes and Jamie Foxx was dubbed when he played Ray Charles and he won an Oscar.

Perhaps it is a prequel.

It's a myth that for some reason seems to be continually touted as truth by some people. The only thing controlling today's mainstream media is the bottom line.

. . . which leads us back to Degrassi

I have not seen the "Mr. Monotony" outtake. I will look for it. Rufus Wainwight and his father Loudon appear as Cocoanut Grove vocalists in the movie THE AVIATOR.

63. It's much easier to elude all of the military police at Walter Reed than it is to keep a young boy from following you.

As I mentioned in another thread, Shirley Temple's rendition of "Animal Crackers In My Soup" is almost as good as mine.

Here's a clip with Russ Tamblyn's own vocals for "The Jet Song" as well as a bit of Tucker Smith's vocal which was used in the actual film. The clip also includes Natalie Wood's vocals for "I Feel Pretty" (which were replaced by Marni Nixon's in the released movie).

In anticipation of the release of STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS (Episode VII) in December 2015 my sweetie and I have been re-watching the previous STAR WARS movies in episodic order as opposed to release date order --- meaning that we began with the prequels that were originally released from 1999 to 2005. At the risk of being vilified, I find that I actually enjoy these movies. I must have been influenced by the overwhelming negative reaction to ATTACK OF THE CLONES (Episode II) during its initial release because I seem to remember being vauely disappointed when I first saw it. However, upon recently seeing this movie again, I must confess that I found it to be very entertaining.

I've never seen THE GHOST AND MR. CHICKEN but it sounds like a lot of fun for a former diehard Nick At Nite viewer like me. Here's a bit of trivia: Both of the actors who played Gladys Kravitz in BEWITCHED (Alice Pearce and Sandra Gould) appear in the movie DEAR HEART, which features a great performance by the wonderful Geraldine Page.

Yes, LHF, you can count me among the curious.

I agree that Leonardo DiCaprio looks young in THE AVIATOR, but I think his performance as Howard Hughes is amazing. I can't think of another movie actor of his generation who has as much range. And he takes such chances in his performances, never turning in a "personality" performance as most American movie actors do. PS. I can totally relate to the scene in THE AVIATOR where DiCaprio as Hughes doesn't want to touch the washroom door.

Both Marion Lorne (Aunt Clara) and Alice Pearce (the original Gladys Kravitz) were awarded their Emmys posthumously. Both of them competed against Agnes Moorehead (as Endora) the year that they won in the Supporting Actress in a Comedy category. One year Elizabeth Montgomery and Agnes Moorehead competed against each other in the Lead Actress in a Comedy Emmy category. Lucille Ball won that year for her role on THE LUCY SHOW. The other nominee in the category was Marlo Thomas for her role in THAT GIRL.

As speedracer and others on this board know, Hayley Mills played the title role in the Disney Channel series GOOD MORNING MISS BLISS, which was later re-packaged in syndication (and on Netflix) as the "first season" (the junior high days) of SAVED BY THE BELL. Although Hayley Mills was the star of GOOD MORNING MISS BLISS, Mark-Paul Gosselaar (as eighth-grader Zack Morris) had as much or more screen time in most episodes.

Tonight (July 9, 2015) TCM is airing THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, which features a great performance by Billy Gray.

I really want to see WHISTLE DOWN THE WIND.

I've seen Martin Scorsese's THE AVIATOR before but I'm looking forward its airing on TCM tonight. The movie stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Howard Hughes and features Cate Blanchett as Katharine Hepburn, Jude Law as Errol Flynn and Kate Beckinsale as Ava Gardner.

Yes, and if they had genuinely worked with Natalie Wood on her singing rather than just patronizing her with no intention of using her vocals I think she would have amazed even her critics. In the clip below, I actually prefer Natalie's vocals to the more polished ones of Marni Nixon. (Richard Beymer is dubbed in this clip as he was in the movie.)

Hehe. Well Ruth Gordon was actually fully visible as "Carlton's Mother" on that episode of RHODA . . . unlike Carlton himself. My favorite line from that episode: Carlton's Mother (to Rhoda): "You got any spare meat?"

What is that photo from?

Natalie Wood was dubbed by Jackie Ward in INSIDE DAISY CLOVER . . . although as with WEST SIDE STORY she thought that her own vocals would be used. Natalie Wood did her own singing in GYPSY. The video below also includes clips from a TV movie about the life of Natalie Wood.

For some reason, the image you posted is not visible.

ANGELS IN AMERICA (HBO two-part movie)

The clamor continues . . .
