Starkwell, Virgil--Woody Allen in Take the Money and Run

Tom Hanks and John Candy in Splash Carrie

she was platinum blonde as a bridesmaid in Pack Up Your Troubles (1932) I know this publicity photo is pretty big, but I think the lucky blonde blurb is funny, considering she wasn't going to stay blonde for long...

watching a season 5 episode of McMillan & Wife---Mildred's sister shows up in this one...actually there's way too much of her in it (maybe Martha Raye is an acquired taste I never acquired...find her irritating). Evidently, this was to 'introduce' her to the audience before she became Nancy Walker's replacement the next year

Lightning was the jump start necessary for Dr. Frankenstein a lightning strike freed Veronica Lake and Cecil Kellaway in I Married a Witch a lightning bolt finished off Bad Seed Patty McCormack (at least in the film version....)
