Hooray for Hollywood.. part deux

Hi Friends, Blogger is messing up badly in both comments and links so bear with things while they hopefully sort things out.

Back so soon?  Well, weeks fly by it seems.  The Inuit people say that time has speeded up and as they are experts on reading the sky due to their hunting, they offer great proof.   

 Welcome to Tuesday 4 in memory of Toni Taddeo it's first host and founder.

How about the subject of Hollywood, it's 'stars', its products and it's affect on the world?

1.  Which of the big movie stars of the past were your favorites? 

I like Joan Crawford (Mildred Pierce) , Gene Tierney(Laura and Leave her to Heaven), Vincent Price(Laura, Dragonwyck), Cornel Wilde(Leave her to Heaven), Bette Davis,Claude Rains (both in Now Voyager) Monty Wooley, Gladys Cooper ( the Bishop's Wife 1947 verson). So many more too!

2. What movie is the funniest you've seen? 

For me, nothing beats Zorro the Gay Blade with George Hamilton, Ron Leibman and Brenda Vaccaro.

How about the most romantic?

It would be You've Got Mail

3.  Do you watch the Oscars or the Emmy Awards shows?   I have seen the Oscars a few times but I really don't like how Hollywood agrandizes itself so much.  

4.  Some movies, plays had a big impact on people.  Orson Welles radio performance of War of the Worlds was broadcast on Halloween 1938  causing panic and widespread hysteria especially in the Grover's Mill area of New Jersey where the "invasion" took place.

  Is there a movie that you were greatly influenced or affected by hopefully in a good way?

Yes, A Man for all Seasons had a big impact on me.  I highly recommend the movie.

Thanks for dropping by and thank you so much for participating and making this a lot of fun for everyone.
