@hazelflag And she reached out beyond her comfort zone, too. Take another look at her powerful performance in Judgement at Nuremberg.

@hazelflag In many ways he had an amazing life, too; complicating his sorrows over Harlow's death, he was developing colon cancer, and within a couple of years underwent experimental radiation treatment that worked (as we know, since he lived to be 90). And it was kept secret.

@drrobtwms @thejohnlegg Or, one who has been deposed, that is, questioned on the record by a lawyer.

@hazelflag In her prime she had the most perfect body in the world; slim, shapely, quick, strong and elegant, with a great sense of rhythm and beautiful line.

@nem56 @hazelflag Because she died. They were engaged when she died.

[Linda J. Sandahl @ljsandahl]

@hazelflag It's such a simple, straightforward story, yet so deep. It depends on the intelligent sincerity of the two leads -- not mawkish, not sentimental, but truthful about their love. And these two could do it.

@steverjbell It's more than just "right wing." It's a specifically pro oligarch, pro billionaire, anti làbor, anti democratic agenda, being pushed overtly ànd covertly.

@hazelflag Wasn't she great? And the sad thing is, this movie was totally forgotten because of the interracial aspects of the story. I also appreciated the extreme frankness describing what happens when she meets George Brent, a former lover, for the first time in years. It's fascinating.

@WallaceReid_ HERO in that one , you know!

The light of laughter went and came.
Proud in their careless transience moved
The changing faces that I loved.

A good holiday poem:

WHEN you were there, and you, and you,
Happiness crowned the night; I too,
Laughing and looking, one of all,
I watched the quivering lamplight fall
On plate and flowers and pouring tea
And cup and cloth; and they and we

[Linda J. Sandahl @ljsandahl]

Flung all the dancing moments by
With jest and glitter. Lip and eye
Flashed on the glory, shone and cried,
Improvident, unmemoried;
And fitfully and like a flame

[Linda J. Sandahl @ljsandahl]

@Jcardinal72 @GalenMicheal And stupid. Don't forget stupid.
