I miss Robert Mitchum movies. I miss the "all man" quality in Robert. (Even greats like Liam Nesson I don't think grab the rugged man like Mitchum did)

I miss Haley Mills Disney movies such as Polyanna. I miss the innocent quality in her acting...

I miss the comedic nature of men like David Brenner and Rich Little....

I also miss tap dancing movies, like Shirley Temple "Good Ship Lollypop"

Golly, I have a feeling this thread is gonna be good.

I guess that depends on how many people know who Robert Mitchum was.... (smile)

I used to want to grow up and marry him. He seemed so manly.

Haley Mills? I wanted to be just like her.

I wanted to be a nun like Sally Field in "The Flying Nun". So, I had one little obsticle to being a nun back then. I was Jewish. Oh well. Was the relationship between Sister Bertrelle and Carlos really platonic? Just look at their faces and tell me that it was.

You are right -- I never saw it before, obviously they were lovers.

A jewish nun, now there is a show.

aw me too i watch them again and again as ther is nothing on tv to watch

[Dot Matrix]

Do you recall how they tried to make a musical cop show with Cop Rock?

It was awful.

In the 40's they did things better in that area maybe.

Now broadway shows still have music like "Cats" or "Les Miserable"

Cop Rock
