INDISCREET was as lovely and charming as I remembered. Bergman and Grant were always a magical team.

It was an old video transfer, sad to say, letterboxed but not enhanced for widescreen TVs, so it never looked in as sharp a focus as would have been possible with an anamorphic release. It was a fairly decent print of the film; only a couple times did noticeable film damage slide across the frame.

I've never seen the play version of this - KIND SIR. Wonder if it's still performed much?

Henry Wilcoxon.  I didn't know that a biography had been written.  Oh my!


I didn't either! That should be an interesting read.

Forgot to mention that RLP could play all the sailors and Dame Andrews could guest star as all the nurses because:

Progress on the accordian is coming slowly but surely. Now, I have to get my hands and feet coordinated. No, I'm not playing the accordian with my feet. But I do have some dance moves to perform while playing it with my fingers.

OH my, well ROCKY JONES was my favorite of the early TV Space Operas - I don't think I had an ABC outlet while SPACE PATROL was broadcast live.  I didn't get an ABC station until 1956!

Have no idea what movie I will select for tonight's viewing. I will watch a few FRIENDS episodes from the Season 8 box, but as there is NOTHING on TV tonight that I want to watch, I'll have to pick something from the to-watch shelf to finish out the evening.

We just received a box of DVD’s from Keith’s brother, MY LITTLE MARJIE, I MARRIED JOAN, TOPPER, BATMAN (the 1943series) and THE ADVENTURES OF FRANCES THE TALKING MULE. :D

He just told to watch CONGO from 1932 and GABRIEL OVER THE WHITE HOUSE.

We aren't sure about CONGO.  Has anyone seen it?

That's why the Cable - Liat romance is doomed.  He knew, somehow, that if he took her home to the United States, before long, she'd be demanding a Fiat, yammering, incessantly "A Fiat for Liat; a Fiat for Liat."

I'd have to say he's better off dead.

Tasteful jeweled cases for selected remains of the stars.
Durante's nose, Groucho's eyebrows, a Donald O'Connor ear...the potential is mind-boggling!

The price for the jeweled box for the most famous Milton Berle parts is a-boggling right now.

Yeah, but with no cable, what does she get to watch on TV?
Old Fiat commercials?

Now that I’m no longer taking Echo to the nursing home I can visit here while we talk on the phone with Keith’s mother.  

Today’s discussion is regarding an unsolved mystery, was the family name changed from Hecht to Lassner when they came over from the old country.  Some came over as Hecht and some came as Lassner.  Keith’s dad thought the name had been changed but was never sure.  Unlike my family who changed the name in our courts, these people might have came over with new names ???

Quite right!

Bloody Mary used to say that they often quarrelled with Liat yelling at him:

"How Could You Believe Me When I Said I Love You When You Know I've Been a Liat All My Life?"

Jennifer I guess a good deal wasn’t going to keep you down.  :D Feel better.

MBarnum will you get to see your nephew when he makes it home?


I am not sure if I will get to see him or not. I know he has a very busy schedule and with his delay in leaving I don't know that he will get as many days home as he had planned. He will, of course, be spending Thanksgiving with his parents in Medford and he also plans on taking his fiancee skiing, but I don't know if he has any plans of coming up towards Salem or not.

Contemporary audiences, hearing the line in South Pacific, "Cable is dead." think to themselves "What, again?  Call Adelphia!"
