After years and years and years, I finally got a copy of the Playhouse 90 version of Charley's Aunt, with Art Carney and a whole slew of famous people. One of those being Jeanette, duh.I want to know how I managed to get to this age without knowing that Gene was in it. I mean, was this fact simply g read more
THE ZADOR REPORT!

This isn't so much a suggestion for the movie, but one for the publicity stills. I require MOAR.

Forgive the weird (but cute) facial expression; I couldn't find a better photo and was too lazy to attempt a decent screencap.From Three Daring Daughters:I am truly on the fence about what exactly that... is. Is it a squirrel's tail? Is it human hair? More importantly, why is it so close to her mout read more

And I'm sad.So this will have to suffice:Binnie Barnes, guys. Binnie. Barnes. First of all, her name is Binnie. BINNIE. Second, she's... a goose. I say thi read more

I felt that the first ever Crazy Hat of the Day! should be something special... something memorable... something I can find a picture of really quickly before I go to work (and will likely be late anyway). So, ladies and budapests, I give you...The Czaritza hat from Maytime! read more

I have to give credit to the brilliant ad men of days gone by, as their stuff is still working on me. Kathryn Grayson goes for Sunbeam. Lucille Ball says RC tastes best. Jeanette MacDonald + GE = Acid Trip....Wait, what?I can honestly say that I've never been able to hear purple before. I thought I read more

I have a few thoughts on Bittersweet. Nevermind, I only have one thought about Bittersweet, and it can be summed up in Jeanette's face, in this picture:OMG Spoilers ahoy!The first time I saw this movie, I wept.
