I'd love to have lived in the New York area when George Raft and Rudolph Valentino were dancing with women for money.  George said all the women wanted to dance with Rudy, but he got his fair share because he got the leftovers.  They couldn't all dance with Rudy at once.  Interesting that they both had those hooded eyes.  Such a mysterious look.  Adela Rogers St. John said that Rudy always looked mysterious because he was nearsighted.  Regardless of opinions about his acting, I always thought Raft was gorgeous.

Oh, wow!  I had my first crush on Lee Aaker when I was just a little younger than he was in that Rusty uniform-won't ask where Rinty was.  In that modern photo he looks like a po'd mix of Charlie Manson and she-who-used-to-be-known-as-Bruce.  Did I win after all by losing?

 

Okay, now I get why Geroge Raft was so popular with women.  It's a wonder that look didn't set the film on fire.  From what I've read he adored his mother-you disrespected her at you own risk-and nobody else came close.  True or false?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Birthday boy Claude Jarman was presented a junior Oscar for his performance as Jody in "The Yearling". Shirley Temple, shown, was the presenter. Claude was likely in his fourteenth year.
Harold Russell is shown on the left, history’s only double Oscar winner for the same role. Russell won Best Supporting Actor for his role as a disabled veteran in "The Best Days of Our Lives", the Best Picture of 1946. From that exposure, he was also presented an honorary Oscar for his leadership efforts on behalf of disabled vets
