lavenderblue19 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 You got it cmvgor., Ruby Gentry is the one. Another Jennifer Jones film. Sultry and fiery in this one just like Duel In the Sun. This time Charlton Heston is her love interest. Great theme song, big hit at that time.Excellent, cmgvor- now it's your thread.

cmvgor Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 > {quote:title=lavenderblue19 wrote:}{quote} > *Monkey On My Back* ? On the money, lavender. It was the story of a passage in the life of Barney Ross, a champion boxer (held world titles in three different weight divisions), who also was a war hero for actions in the Pacific with the US Marines. Wounded in an heroic action for which he was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross, he became addicted to heron during treatment for his injuries. The movie starts with his entry into a service-connected clinic to be treated for his condition, and flashes back to tell the bulk of his story. A great star vehicle for Cameron Mitchell. lavender's thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
