I’m thanking God right now that TCM didn’t obtain all the MGM cartoon library (Tom & Jerry - ugh!).

Wait, maybe they did back in the day.

Then I’m also thanking God that they had the good sense to act like they hadn’t.

If someone had told me that one day I would be craving orange marmalade on a daily basis, I would have said
EWWW! GROSS!

London Theatre folk put on a Fair for the Children’s Fund just months before Britain enters into WWII.
July 1939.

Lots of famous people, look for Ivor!

This looks like it would be a fantastic read!
NEW ESSAY — Christine Jacobson’s “Typing for Love or Money”, on the neglected efforts of women like Theodora Bosanquet, Véra Nabokov, and Valerie Eliot, who — through their work as typists and editors — had a profound impact on modern literature: publicdomainreview.org/essay/typing...

Just woke up after a very late night, flipped on YouTube and this glorious
video was waiting there for me like a gift.

I thought I had found all of John Wilson’s BBC Proms clips but I’m happy to be wrong!

I started rearranging my living room furniture at 11:30 pm.
Finished about an hour ago, approx 2:30 am.
Been looking at it for almost an hour.
I hate it.

The end.

Imagine seeing photos and videos of ugly old men raping underage girls and thinking, "I need to protect those horrible men at all costs."?

Pam Bondi is a soulless villain.

Sometimes i get Four Feathers mixed up in my head with this movie. I keep waiting for a scene that never comes.

Robert Preston intrigues me. It’s like he morphed into a different version of himself in the late 50s.
In the 40s he was a husky, stolid beefcake acting in action or crime movies.
Then he became a lithe, musical, fey kind of personality that moved more like a cat.

The best cartoons ARE the ones that are geared towards adults. That’s the genius behind these toons.
And why as kids we were drawn to them, b/c they didn’t talk down to us, they felt subversive & we learned “inference” as a tool to understand things a bit above our grade school level.

It would be nice if TCM would do an interstitial about the Bugs Bunny voice actors.
Just listening now to this short, I heard Mel Blanc, of course, but also Bea Benedaret & Arthur Q. Bryant.
