My first crush at 13, it was with the boy next door, he was 16, and I thought he was just the neatest! Now I can't even remember his name, but I still love this song.

Robert Wise, producer and director of such blockbuster films as The Sand Pebbles, The Sound of Music, West Side Story, The Hindenburg, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Run Silent, Run Deep, The Andromeda Strain, The Set-Up, The Haunting, and The Body Snatcher. Here is a clip from West Side Story, Officer Krumpke. I directed this scene as part of my final grade in my senior year drama class, and it was the first time I discovered the rush of creating something that people would enjoy. It was great! Excuse the subtitles, I guess some people can't understand Brooklynese.

here at age 17 (her studio says 16), had her first pin-up photo shot taken. This was taken right after she was in HOLIDAY IN MEXICO in 1946. (PLOT "Ambassador Jeffrey Evans (Walter Pidgeon), a widower living in Mexico, has his hands full with his teenage daughter Christine (Jane Powell). Christine runs the entire household and tries to manage her father's private life as well. But love threatens to wreck all her carefully made plans: an earnest young classmate (Roddy McDowall) is hopelessly in love with her. . .Ambassador Evans is smitten with a beautiful singer (Ilona Massey). . .and poor Christine isn't sure where she fits in anymore! Top top it all off, Christine develops a crush on famed pianist Jose Iturbi, who is much older than she."
TRIVIA: One of several films in which a young Fidel Castro appears as an extra, mostly in crowd scenes.

In 1965 when I graduated high school my dad FINALLY let me get my driver's license so I could get a car and a job. Of course he went with me because he was going to make the down payment, so I had to really talk him into the car I wanted, as it was a 1963 fire engine red Dodge Dart GT ragtop. It was gorgeous, at least to me. My dad wasn't really crazy about it, because he said it had probably been owned by some teenager who drag raced it all the time, but hey, that was my dad. He did agree after a little whining, and I drove it out of the lot straight to my best friend's house! I was so excited, my first car, and it looked like something I had only dreamed of owning. He had wanted me to get a Metropolitan, because he said they were safer. Ugh. I had such good times in this car, going down the road with the radio blasting out the Beatles, at 100 mph. I drove it to my first job, I still remember heading home on the Interstate late at night, in the dead of a Florida winter (50 degrees), with the top down and the heat on full blast. A few months later I met Larry, he kept my car one day while I was at work and had the nerve to take off the white twin racing stripes I had put on the hood and the trunk. I was crushed! And my dad made it worse by thanking him for doing it!! So my car made it through our first born in 1966 and then I had to part with her when she began having oil problems. But I will always miss my little Dodge Dart.

Up the ancient stairs, behind the locked door, something lives, something evil, from which no one has ever returned!! I first read the book, written by Robert Marasco, and then the film came out in 1976. The book scared the bejesus out of me, the film gave me goose bumps. Add to that the fact that I had a huge crush on Oliver Reed at the time and this became one of my top three favorite horror films. Without a doubt, one of the scariest movies that I have ever seen. This scene with the undertaker and coffin coming up the stairs will give you nightmares, and the final scene in the attic will throw you out of your seat. Which was scariest? The book definitely, because you have to rely on your imagination.
It starred Oliver Reed, Karen Black, Lee Montgomery, Bette
Davis, Burgess Meredith, Eileen Hechart, and Dub Taylor.

Song "I Finally Found Someone" by Barbra Streisand and Bryan Adams. Nowadays, Hollywood fans have regarded Hepburn's lifelong romance with Spencer Tracy as an example of true love even though they never married. Although there must have been true love between them, their romance was far from being a Cinderella story. For most of the years that she spent with him, he was also an alcoholic, at times launching abusive rants before blacking out. For years at a time, Hepburn would help him dry out, arranging her professional life around his needs……..Near the end of Tracy's life Hepburn all but quit working to nurse him through repeated illnesses."
Hepburn defended her affair saying, "We just passed 27 years together, in what was to me absolute bliss." And how did Tracy feel about their romance? Believe it or not, it seems he never talked about it because he refused to admit it actually existed. Even when Hepburn rushed to his side when he was hospitalized before he passed on, Tracy referred to her as a wonderful friend. Tracy never allowed the two of them to be photographed together except for a movie they both starred in. We are told that the reason for this is that Tracy was a devout Catholic and was married to another woman, had children and did not want to offend his children, or wife. The love relationship of Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy was an example of both heartbreak and true love.

Apparently George from Seinfeld is dead wrong: You should rush like a madman to answer all your telephone calls. It's the Golden Rule! (At least it was when this notice ran in 1931.) It doesn't say who sponsored it. The telephone company, I suppose.
