MissGoddess Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 >>>But when will tcm aire 10 North Fredrick Street? I think he was great in that film.<<< Hi Leo! I do hope TCM can air this movie, because I'm always going on about what a great performance Gary gives as "Joe Chapin".

coopsgirl Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I had a good weekend, thanks!. It was kinda cloudy and rainy here but it was good b/c it's keeping the temps low. Theresa came over and we spent all day Saturday watching Gary on my big tv, listening to Glenn Miller records and looking through old movie magazines and scrapbooks. We had way too much fun and I was worn out from laughing so much! It felt like we were right back in the 30s-40s. Theresa - I'm glad you got to watch *The Virginian*. I really like that one. My favorite part is where Gary and Mary Brian go out for a ride and they're talking about Romeo and Juliet and he says he didn't think Romeo was much of a man b/c he wasted too much time with Juliet just spouting off poetry. It was too cute and romantic when he shows her what a 'real man' would do and he kisses her!! It's weird too how much the ending is similar to the overall plot of *High Noon*.

MissGoddess Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Hi Angie---oh, that sounds like you girls had a ball! Glenn Miller, too? That cat really could swing. I want to see *The Virginian* again---I saw it years and years ago and remember little about it. However, I read the book it's based on and it's one of my favorite western stories. The character with no name, (Gary) is an iconic one and I always picture Gary in the role. I am not sure I have ever seen Joel McRea's version. I think perhaps I agree with Gary's take on Romeo and Juliet. At least if I were Juliet that's what I would respond to best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopsgirl Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I'm still having a hard time accessing the site. It takes me several tries before it will let me post a message. Anyway here are some movie posters I found that are some I've never seen before. I don't think TCM will show *Ten North Frederick* b/c it's a Fox movie and most of those are shown on the Fox Movie Channel. It's not listed in their schedule though and I'm not sure but I think that might be one that's involved in a rights dispute so it may just be stuck out there in limbo. That is a real shame since it's such a great movie. I like how on the second one for *The Virginian* they put 'All Talking' on the poster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopsgirl Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 It is weird that we had the same fave scene from *The Virginian* too - spooky!!! I gotta tell y'all about the Gary dream I had last night. It was so sad . He looked like he did in *The Plainsman* in the scene near the beginning when they're on the boat and he's playing cards. Anyway, he was gonna marry my friend Karen (who is happily married with a baby girl by the way ) and I was so upset b/c I was in love with him but he thought we were just friends. I was talking to Karen before the ceremony and she told me that she didn't really love him enough to want to marry him but she didn't want to embarass him or herself by running out so she was going through with it anyway. Then I ran into Gary and he was telling me how happy he was to be marrying her and I wanted to tell him that I loved him and she didn't but the words wouldn't come out. So later on I'm sitting in the church watching them get married and I started to cry and my grandpa (whose been dead for 3 years) sat down next to me and put his arms around me and I just started bawling but nobody seemed to notice. Oh my goodness just talking about it now is kinda getting to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopsgirl Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I got that 'squishy' thing from an old short from the '50s. This teenage girl's brother comes home from college and brings one of his friends and she develops a crush on him and she's on the phone with one of her friends and she says that she's getting all squishy!! It sounds kinda gross but I thought it was funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 You're welcome Coopsgirl. Does the jellyfish effect occur only with Gary? lol I wonder what other kind of reactions these pictures are going to stir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopsgirl Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 There are two men that give me the jelly legs: Gary Cooper and Brad Ausmus. The latter is the catcher for the Houston Astros. I've met him a few times and gotten his autography and my pic taken with him and every time it's the same thing. I freeze up and can barely say two words to him and then I feel weak all over for about 20 minutes. Here's a pic of Brad, or Sugarbritches as I call him (but not to his face - ha!).
