So would all of you suggest I watch the biopic anyway since I am a Beach Boys fan, or should I skip it and just listen to "God Only Knows" instead?

Cooper will always be remembered by anyone talking about great western stars. Cooper is immortalized in the song "Putting on the Ritz.' This can bee seen in the film Young Frankenstein: Acting like a million dollar trooper. Trying hard to look like Cary Cooper- Super duper.

"Song and dance man" is on his tombstone.

My VHS copy was recorded off the television by a friend I know only online who sent it to me.

Yes, I do. I have to say that if it were not for Kay listing their names, I would not know them as separate. I just call them the cricket lovers. I never remember their names.

A lot of celebrities do this, especially now in this internet era. Of course, this does not just apply to fame but also money. There already has been an actor as president. The lines are blurred. I wish Me-Tv in my area had shown Doris Day like in other places. But I did get to see Send Me No Flowers. That was a bonus.

Final 1938 Category For Me: Best Supporting Actor; Basil Rathbone was the winner I chose. Every supporting actor in The Adventures of Robin Hood was on my list Charlie Ruggles in Bringing Up Baby Barry Fitzgerald in Bringing Up Baby Robert Morley in Marie Antoinette Paul Lukas in The Lady Vanishes "The Cricket lovers" in The lady Vaishes Ralph Richardson in The Divorce of lady X Barry Fitzgerald in the Dawn Patrol Donald Crisp in Jezebel Melville Cooper in The Dawn Patrol Richard Cromwell in Jezebel

By the way, the reason I was being idiotic about Monroe in ARB was that with the love of Robin Hood and Errol Flynn - and I am a fan remember- for a while it seemed like any post that did not talk about that film was being lost among the love in about the movie. As Princess said, let's talk about Angels With Dirty Faces. However, my mix up with Jean Dixon's film was indeed an error. I am likely to make lots of mistakes when I have not slept for more than 24 hours.

I did not see it on TCM. I had a VHS copy of it from somewhere.

Just watched Cape Fear again, although in some parts I had to keep myself distracted as I do have rehearsal tonight and this isn't the film to watch before you need to do something with good breath control. Too scary. So now I am off to rehearsal.

Yes I say you should. as said, the real King did NOT come back to England. And John was a great King.

Isn't it fantastic? "you'll not get me alive, said he...."

I loved last evening's night of John Barrymore movies. He was an athletic man when he was healthy for sure.

On The Beach as part of 24 hours of Gregory Peck's birthday. I have seen this movie often. I hope people who have not seen this film and only know Fred Astaire singing and dancing are either watching this or recording it to watch later.

Re: Kirk Douglas. I am a major fan of this actor. Both for his on screen roles and his humanitarian efforts. I could not care less about his real-life sex life in terms of how I see him on screen. He is the one who put Dalton Trumbo's real name on the credits of Spartacus. Yes, this did not end the blacklist right away and other blacklisters had a terrible time getting work. But Kirk started the end of the blacklist. I am looking forward to seeing Trumbo. I am not sure when I will get to see it, but it is high on my to-see list. Of course, Kirk felt guilty about surviving that airplane crash with a broken back while the two young people in the other plane died. Kirk is one of the few actors who are old where I am able to watch anything he is in and not be sad about his age. When Gregory Peck was in his final years I was unable to watch anything of his that was even remotely sentimental. I watched NO comedies. I watched war films and westerns where people died because they were killed. No one died of old age.

This has always irritated me. I know, of course, that Robin Hood's version of King John - and yes it was King John, not Prince John in real life - John is evil and Richard comes back to England. Richard never did return from the crusades. And King John wrote the Magna Carta. My ability to enjoy films like this relies upon me having a suspension of belief. I think they should have ben given something to eat, even if they ate in their own area. But, well, that I suppose is a minor point. One does wonder why they could not have had a line or two written in like them saying "We loved the meal you gave us. Thanks for the dinner, we could not possible eat more today."

Thanks again for the information about the article. I read it and loved it. I knew he was a fan of Spencer Tracy. I hadn't realized that Greta Garbo was his favourite actress. I can see why.

To Kill a Mockingbird was my introduction to Gregory Peck in grade 10. I was an instant fan of his and a real life hero

Post Number 3500: I wanted this post number of mine to be on Peck's birthday on this thread. Here is a Happy Birthday poem I wrote for his 100th birthday: Happy Birthday to Peck My Darling Greg Peck On your hundredth birthday, A bushel and a Peck* *the name of his episode of The Jack Benny Show.

MY PERSONAL TOP 10 GREGORY PECK MOVIES: HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY: (top 3 are constant) 1. The Guns of Navarone 2. To Kill a Mockingbird 3. Designing Woman 4. Captain Horatio Hornblower 5. The Gunfighter 6. Roman Holiday 7. The Big Country 8. Spellbound 9. Makenna's Gold (a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine as it is not a great film) 10. Twelve O'clock High

Yes I realize that. What I meant is that Lawrence was going to chuck her out of his choices in 1939 completely, and without her there is no love story. Sure, someone else may have played the role, but as most of the other characters are male, her role was the romance of Mr. Chips. Donat would of course die soon after this. His final performance was as an Asian in The Inn of the Sixth Happiness. I love Robert Donat. I wish he had ben healthier during his life and that he did not need to constantly take time out for health issues.

No, I didn't. It has been a few years since I saw the movie and was relying entirely on memory. It does remind me that I need to rewatch it. Berlin did indeed later appear in a WWII movie and re-sing the song.
