UPDATED Sat Aug 30 2008 15:37:40 Just heard about this incident which occurred many years ago in my hometown, Westport, CT. It gave me a big chuckle! A girl was invited to her girlfriend's house to go swimming for the afternoon. The girlfriend's parents were (local residents) Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. At the end of the afternoon the girl called her mother to ...

I taped quite a few of these and have been burning them onto disk. Right now I'm watching five Universal classics: Frankenstein, Dracula, The Invisible Man, The Wolfman, and The ...

Fantastic year yet the Academy wasted one or two slots. And the Nominees were .... Humphrey Bogart in The Caine Mutiny Humphrey plays a megalomanic captain of a near-wrecked ship. Bogart easily won our last (and first) round but I think we can safely say he won't win his second one here. I loved the movie but prefered the supporting cast to Bogart's crazy maniac. He wasn'...

UPDATED Thu Aug 28 2008 08:21:24 As usual i`m hoping that i can get a thread going that will entice some of you long standing denizens to post .
