Celebrating Judy Garland's birthday with one of the most endearing videos you will see.
The time she reunited 23 years later with Ray Bolger, and sang, If I Only Had A Brain.
There are perfectly lovely quotes, then there’s this quote by Nigel Bruce that puts most of them to shame.
“I am in no way a distinguished man, but if I died tomorrow, I can honestly claim to have been what few men can call themselves - a really happy one. For 26 years I have been blessed with the love and friendship of a very wonderful woman. I have two attractive and splendid daughters of whom I am very proud, and my two sons-in-law I respect and like enormously. Except for a groggy leg I have been given excellent health, and all through my life I have had the friendship of many attractive and worthwhile people, for all this I am very grateful. I have made a few enemies and for their opinions I care not a fig. I may be broke or ill again, but as long as I have Bunny beside me I shall be happy, and I can only hope that our two daughters will enjoy their lives as much as their father has enjoyed every minute of his.”
~ Nigel Bruce
Basil Rathbone was BOTD in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1892. He moved to England with his family when he was three.
His RICH filmography includes the extraordinary Sherlock Holmes films with Nigel Bruce, The Adventures of Robin Hood, The Court Jester, Captain Blood, The Mark of Zorro, David Copperfield, A Tale of Two Cities, Anna Karenina, and Son of Frankenstein.
Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce were close friends off screen as well as on.
Rathbone referred to Bruce as the "quintessential Dr. Watson" and said (rightfully) that his Dr. Watson was one of the "screen's most lovable characters.”

@GuntherEagleman@WallStreetApes I’m in awe of the accomplishments of President Trump and his remarkable administration. If only the unhinged and treacherous Democrats would stop hating on him and get on board with the majority of the American people the country and the world would be in a much better place.
🇮🇪⚔️ An armed Irish group has issued a direct warning to politicians:
“You have flooded our communities with military-age migrant men.
We will not sit back and watch our culture and religion destroyed.”
The pushback has begun.
Ireland is waking up.
A nation without its history loses its identity.
President Trump knows and understands that better than anyone.
That’s why he’s restoring, preserving, and celebrating the American story that built the greatest country on Earth.
While others try to tear it down, he’s fighting to keep it alive.
Through every attack, every challenge, and every obstacle, he keeps moving forward.
For millions of Americans, that’s something truly special to witness.
We don’t fool around in Ireland 🇮🇪
Belfast boys went door-to-door seeking out migrant-occupied houses.
They had enough of ultra-violent migrant attacks on Irish people.
The government started all of this, but by God will the Irish finish it.
