[What Star would you like to see a month devoted to?]

I don't know what TCM has done in the past, but if I could program a year's worth of star months, I'd do:

 

Peter Sellers -- even in his bad movies, he's always fun to watch

Jean Simmons -- because watching her makes me blush and tittle

Abbott and Costello -- have they ever had co-stars of the month? this would be a real treat

Paul Newman -- the coolest actor in movie history

Margaret Lockwood -- does she have enough for a month? Maybe a week or a day, but I'd love to see something besides just The Lady Vanishes

Peter Ustinov -- I always have fun when Ustinov's in a movie

Jack Lemmon -- ditto

Rosalind Russell -- such a firecracker!

Ray Milland -- after The Uninvited and The Lost Weekend, I'm ready for lots more Milland

Boris Karloff -- he made so many B-movies into classics it's ridiculous

Bugs Bunny -- why not? Name a bigger star! Plus, the kids love him, I hear.

Marcello Mastroianni -- THE Italian classic movie star

[Who's got your heart? (A male and female question)]

I've had a not-so-secret crush on Jean Simmons since college. Her performance in Spartacus did me in, and Guys and Dolls firmed it up. I love her understated acting style and the dark looks vs. good girl charm.

 

If I was a chick, I'd totally be into Paul Newman. He might be pretty, but he's always had a natural ruggedness to him, a real loner quality. My wife thinks he still looks great, even clocking in at 80.
