coffeedan1927 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Good morning, everybody! As this week wears on, I'm going to be sorry to see summer go for another year. But I'm also looking forward to fall and its cooler weather -- I guess that's a result of getting older. But on the whole, I just watching the seasons come and go like old friends who stay a while, move on, and come again when the weather changes. Now, on to this week's movie trivia . . .

coffeedan1927 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Share Posted September 20, 2005 Good job, Ralph! You are correct -- and you spelled it right, too! Link to post Share on other sites
coffeedan1927 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Share Posted September 20, 2005 Tuesday's question: Which of John Huston's films was originally conceived as a vehicle for Clark Gable and Humphrey Bogart? Good luck! Link to post Share on other sites
pgm80s Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 "The Man Who Would be King" ? Link to post Share on other sites
coffeedan1927 Posted September 21, 2005 Author Share Posted September 21, 2005 Righto, pgm80s! Huston originally wrote his adaptation of Rudyard Kipling's story in the 1950s for Clark Gable and Humphrey Bogart, but both actors died before the project really got under way. So it sat for 20 years before he saw the possibilities with Sean Connery and Michael Caine in the the principal roles. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Karl Malden, in BABY DOLL. There is some really witty dialogue in that film............... Link to post Share on other sites
coffeedan1927 Posted September 24, 2005 Author Share Posted September 24, 2005 Wow! Everything's back up now. Just been clicking around the boards a little bit, and though I don't see anything radically different, I hope it's all for the better. Oh yes, Wednesday's answer: Fred Astaire was the object of those fans' desparate pleas. He had announced his (first) retirement with the release of his 1946 Paramount musical BLUE SKIES. And lolite, my leg is healing nicely. I'm out of the tape and gauze now, and wearing a local bandage on my ankle while the ulcers continue to heal. Thanks for your concern!
