Things feel uncertain right now, Illinois. I want you all to know we’re doing everything we can to protect your rights. Make sure you know how to stand up for yourself and others at illinoisimmigrationinfo.org.
Watching history happen in front of your eyes is debilitating & tiresome. Please amuse me.

I can’t say what I used to dream about doing with him…
In my case: Drop an old person that you’ve turned into now & for whatever future I have left. (Horny, old Mary Carson from The Thornbirds)
Brilliant.
Totally.
Good luck finding someone to board your dog while you go on vacation
I just had this conversation with my sister who kept commenting on my favorite silent actor’s, Ivor Novello, makeup when I tried to have her watch The Lodger. She said she couldn’t get past it. I don’t think we’re really related.
Who knew that Mad Love would be just the thing I wanted to wake up to this morning. #tcmparty
Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy.
It’s “LOVE”
If you’re gonna watch Tarzan, The Apeman remember to give Ivor Novello a little nod as he was under contract to MGM at the time as a screenwriter & came up with the “Tarzan-Jane” dialogue. He was also rewriting a couple of his own stage plays into screenplays & fighting w/LB Mayer daily. #tcmparty
Bring a movie usher was on my list of professions when I was a kid. #tcmparty
Yeah, he had a troubled life.
That movie trope that love & marriage had to be all consuming with no other interests always annoys me. #tcmparty
If they entered all the information into the machine, why would it take so long to manually find that info now? #tcmparty
Wonder what Dina Merrill would think of Mir-a-Lardo if she were around today? #tcmparty
I didn’t see the @
Oops! I’m sorry.
Neva Patterson
Only in a Rom-com
He was terminally B List. Always a supporting player, never really the star. Though WB tried in the beginning to make him the next big thing.
I sort of remember being told that the WH windows weren’t easily opened.
Alma is to Sam as Mrs. Danvers was to the 2nd Mrs. deWinter. #tcmparty
Tess Craig is a good name. #tcmparty
Something's definitely afoot at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave
Oh, you’re on a roll.
“We got to sell this swill, now go out & debase your movie knowledge cred”
Agree. Her character is crafted to get her comeuppance.
Milk on top of booze!? #tcmparty
Now I’m jonesing for some dark, super dark chocolate.
I meant to type “today’s” zeitgeist.
There is an underlying theme that somehow her intelligence makes her almost anti-American despite or because of her world reach. Kind of like this day’s zeitgeist.
You are a genius. Anybody who loves chocolate is sure to be articulate & knowledgeable about movies.
Makes it even worse.
And I don’t believe they’ve ever watched any movie period.
There is a lot to like about WOTY, but I hate how Hepburn’s character has to be cut down to size. #tcmparty
Information Please is great fun to listen to. You can find a ton of them on YouTube. It’s almost a Who’s Who of the literary, political & entertainment world of the 1930s & 1940s. #tcmparty
The TCM Wine group commercial is my idea of HELL. #tcmparty
Sunday in NY must be on auto-pilot programming. #tcmparty
I could never play golf, but that there is a definite science to it makes it very interesting to me & I love to watch a good game. #tcmparty
Shorty! #tcmparty
I took a Benadryl last night due to my allergies & I’m a dizzy, drowsy mess today.
The other day I got an over whelming desire to buy school supplies. I’ve been out of school 51yrs, but it’s in the bones.
Adore Anthony Valentine & and specially when he reprised the rol Ivor Novello created in the TV adaptation of The Dancing years!
Hmm, suspicious, no? Tomorrow he’s supposed to send ICE to invade Chicago so maybe he’ll show his face for that, if it happens.
Do I have the intestinal fortitude to watch I Remember Mama? #tcmparty
I read that that photo was an old one from 5 years ago, LOL!
It strains credulity that any woman would have the willpower to put Cary Grant through these changes. #tcmparty
I used to pray my mother was on a desert island. But that’s another movie. #tcmparty
Stop bragging!
It’s a Hollywood Law that if you are a movie star poolside in CA you must wear a fur hat. #tcmparty
I wonder if their “friendship” lasted until their passing? Never saw pictures of them in later years.
Absolutely! Upon meeting the little brats.
I’m a deep thinker
So that nickname would have made Ellen -Eve Arden! #tcmparty
If I were the 2nd wife I’d have known what the 1st wife looked like & found out everything there was to find out, whether she was dead or alive. #tcmparty
My Dumbass Legal Take: Ellen was declared dead is it still bigamy? She’s technically dead. But on the other hand, since Ellen isn’t dead her marriage wouldn’t have been dissolved & then that would make the 2nd marriage void especially if it wasn’t consummated. #tcmparty
I would have dumped the bow. #tcmparty
Dunne looks like Garbo from this profile. #tcmparty
Love Helen Morgan. #tcmparty
Oh, yes!
Allan Jones, father of singer Jack “Love Boat” Jones. #tcmparty
I recently watched the 1929 silent version of Show Boat on YouTube. Starring a young, extremely handsome Joseph Schildkraut as Ravenal, the film delved deeper into his story than subsequent remakes. #tcmparty
Thank God we’ve been spared Life with Father! #tcmparty
I’m calling for a Lyle Talbot Day next August! In fact they should dedicate the month to character actors. #tcmparty
Ugh! That Spielberg remake was the worst. #tcmparty
This was Tracy’s prime period. He was very handsome in this film. #tcmparty
It’s so true. Like this movie illustrates, love never dies.
I’ve have conversations. I’ve had warnings, I’ve been saved from dreadful things happening to me. I know it’s my Grandmother, my husband or my Dad. I have a suspicion about another person, but I can’t be sure.
Thank God the name Drinda never became a popular name. I could see my mother choosing it. #tcmparty
Me neither! Far from it. Not very religious either. I think you have to be open to it.
I do believe the dead communicate with us. Happens to me all the time. #tcmparty
did a body pop out of Giuliani’s trunk on impact or something, what is that statement lol
This man is an authentic American hero A Black man facing armed federal agents to stand up for his youth baseball team. Brave. www.wcpo.com/politics/imm...
Irene Dunne, along with Jean Arthur, bucked Hollywood Ageism back in the day. Dunne born in 1898 & Arthur in 1900, were sometimes older than their leading men.Both careers started in the 1920s & lasted well into the 1950s. They played mothers, but were never subjected to the “Hag” trope. #tcmparty
Same. And lately the sound of a pounding rainstorm just knocks me out.
I run a fan at night year round! You betcha!
Let me explain something… if I say I like a certain movie never counter with “Have you seen the remake? It’s in color!” Because I may have to hurt you.
Ha! The warmest I let it get in this house is 65 degrees, year round.
Very cool!
New plan: we get Obama to demand the death certificate
And Douglas hadn’t found his niche in his early movies. He was good at playing the nerd or tough guys who weren’t so tough.
It was a battle of chin dimples.
YouTube!
Jacqueline Stewart has a great fashion sense. I love how she dresses. #tcmparty
Peter Sellers is the SOTM for Sept. No comment #tcmparty
Redemption comes in many forms. #tcmparty
This story feels very Biblical. #tcmparty
Poor Jim. It’s all about him. #tcmparty
Especially this husband.
I watch a Kirk Douglas movie in spite of the fact that Kirk Douglas is in it. #tcmparty
I made a salad. Salad is gone.
can’t believe we’re gonna have a First Couch
I’ve done that & it’s therapeutic.
Happy Heavenly Birthday to Raymond Massey. Pictured with his talented offspring, Anna & Daniel Massey. (Random fact: Jeremy Brett was Anna’s first husband & RM’s son-in-law for 4 yrs)
I wish the extant Kennedy family would rise en masse & repudiate him on a primetime TV show.
Happy Heavenly Birthday Joan & Fred! #tcmparty #mythreesons
Here’s another interesting YouTube channel I recently found called Moviewise. This is the episode that drew me. With the exception of maybe a few UK actors, the sophisticated, adult leading man has gone MIA. #tcmparty #sprezzatura youtu.be/xlfmJS5of20?...
I think he’s just been sent out to the dealership to be retooled.
