The ladies enjoy birthday boy Burt Lancaster walking away in "The Swimmer"

He was 50 at the time.

::Cat calls::

 

That reminds me, I'd love for TCM to show The Swimmer again.  I only got to see half of it and this half was apparently not the part I saw.

Nobody had a body like Burt Lancaster.  Nobody.  I've suffered through some of the terrible movies he made, like "The Crimson Pirate," just to look at that magnificent man and the remarkable things he could do.  He must have worked like a demon to maintain his agility and strength.  "Trapeze" was one of my favorites.  He was almost too gifted; looking like that, living the life he did, and managing to be a marvelously creative actor, as he was in "Separate Tables."  Amazing.

Probably one of the reasons Joel McCrea looked so strong in his old age was that he did his own ranching.  He said once that someone had told him at the beginning of his career to live on half his salary and save the other half, which he did.  He also bought his ranch and did much of the work on it,  A very determined man with his feet on the ground.  My favorite movie of his:  "The More The Merrier."  Classic.

Birthday gal Selena Royle and John Garfield in the taut drama "He Ran All the Way".
Following her appearance in He Ran All the Way (1951), however, her career came to a screeching halt when she was branded a Communist sympathizer during the McCarthy-era hysteria. Refusing to appear before the "subversive"-hunting House Committee on UnAmerican Activities, she instead sued the American Legion, which had published the infamous "Red Channels" that listed her name. She valiantly campaigned to restore her image and won, but the damage had already been done. She made only two films in its aftermath. Sad indeed,
