Thanks DR JOHN G I also enjoyed the Angie Dickinson interview.

I happened to turn to TCM last night and I think they are showing the NEW RESTORATION of Rio Bravo as well.....it was a WOW moment!

We first saw the movie at the Drive In Theeder and all of us in the car gave it both thumbs up....Mother, Dad, my brother, me, and my two sisters.

I realize the point of the interview was Rio Braco, but not a word on Burt Bacharach? Odd.

It is possible she requested the interview not include him.

We finished two of the interviews yesterday and struck the set....the third guy "forgot"......

GREASE! was kind of scary.  I saw a lot of folks coming in and talked with everyone I know....  The director is rather unorganized and her idea of rehearsal is "everyone come every night...."


But it’s the exploration of every character’s back story that is most important.

Especially when the character only has three lines! ;D

DR George, the tulip sounds like a lovely way to spend a birthday.  You are kind to stay home and care for the chickens.

Not really...I didn't exactly have a choice. ::)

Still not sure about this. His accent is weird. She’s vocally brilliant, but somehow uninspired.

Yes I forgot about the Nancy Olson link yesterday.  Very interesting.

I remember an article written about Mr Alan Lerner.  There was some meeting going on at his NYC apartment about My Fair Lady early on in the process.  And he was married to Nancy at the time.  There were a lot of men there and she came through the room to empty ash trays and freshen up drinks.....and Lerner looked at how the other men reacted to her - which was most positive!

And he realized.....that their time together had done a disservice to his attraction....and wrote "I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face" about the incident....

At least that's what I read.

It would be interesting to hear the story from her perspective: "He's Grown Accustomed to My Face."

I am excited over DR Elmore's hip surgery. What a difference that could make for you!

Vibes it does so.

My friend Mal, who lives in the Bay Area, was one of the designers of the RoboDoc, a robotic arm for hip surgeries. The fit of the new hip is of great importance and the RoboDoc allowed a more precise fit. IBM plowed several million into the development, but unfortunately the management team knew little about managing technology projects and was constantly at odds with the tech people. The company folded. It's a shame because it was a very good product. I don't know if there have been any advancements since then.

My role in this was coming across the ad in the Washington Post, thinking what a good match it was with Mal's skills, telling him about it, and viola! he got the job.
