Anyone spot Beaver's screen mother as the dress designer? She had about 30 seconds of screen time.

I said, "It's Mrs. Cleaver!" It was great to see her in a different role. Thanks for reminding me that I need to check out her profile http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0082511/

I believe my exact words were "It's June!". She's very chic.

I happened to catch this on TV in the middle of the night last night. I still like it! I got to record it from the beginning. When I saw it in the listings I didn't realize it was the same one we saw before. I only wanted to watch it to see an actor's brother who I didn't know was an actor until last week (Jack Carson's brother, Robert). I still don't know where Robert Carson is in the film, though (bit part I guess?). I'll have to skim through it again.

it would be a good one to watch late at night! some good flicks on tonight on tcm: 'the cheap detective'; 'the loved one'; '5 easy pieces'.



Season's Greetings!

Thanks! I missed The Cheap Detective. I'll get to record The Loved One and Five Easy Pieces. That's Entertainment, Parts 1, 2 & 3 are on Tuesday night. I found them kind of boring in the past; now that I know more about classic films/musicals I'll probably get more out of them this time around.

cool. i used to get tcm emailing me their monthly schedule. don't get it anymore...maybe it was caught by the 'spam' filter.

I watched it tonight. I noticed that Larry Mondello's mother is also in this movie, in a small role.

I missed Madge Blake. I'll have to watch it again. TNT shows "Bad" all the time.

Cosmo Topper was also in the film appearing in a scene with the woman who played his maid Katie on the Topper TV series. That would be Leo G Carroll and Kathleen Freeman.
