MilesArcher Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 That's what can happen when you answer without checking first. Let's make that "Two Weeks With Love". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrence1 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 OK, Miles. Now you got it. Jane Powell said in her interview with Robert Osborne that this movie was her first period piece, and she loved getting into costumes of another era. Also, she loved the variety of the music in this movie and, of course, her tango with Ricardo. It's your turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesArcher Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Thanks. Jane Powell and Debbie Reynolds were very good friends during their time together at MGM. They made several pictures together. Besides being musically talented actresses, they had something else in common. Do you know what that was?

MilesArcher Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 That's right, Terrence. Jane is three years older than Debbie. Your turn now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrence1 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 This rather pompous leading man saw himself as a real ladies' man. When one of his leading ladies would reject his advances, he had a habit of eating a lot of garlic right before a love scene with the actress. This was his punishment for being rejected. Who is he?

Terrence1 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 No, although I understand that Clark Gable did have a bad case of bad breath. No, the actor in question is a musical star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrence1 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 It's Mario Lanza. There have been many accounts of his not being a very nice man. Yes, he loved the ladies,even though he had a wife and family at home. Your turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
