I remember when!



Jim Hardy: [trying to describe Linda] She was sort of a medium built, medium height. With a nice evening gown on with a belt in the back. She's sorta built like the girl I knew from the corner drugstore who used to play pinball. Conshwella Schlepkiss. I remember she was high man three weeks in a row.
Danny Reed: Happy New Year!

Ted Hanover: Oh, don't do that!

(Holiday Inn, 1942)

I remember when there were movies that had a great classic song in it with a plot and a love story and lots of good feelings without any hate and violence or nilistic bullshit. If Hollywood made one it would make a gazillion dollars.

I agree, Trooper. There really isn't anyone left in Hollywood to make one, though. They're all empty souls, I think.

But thank God for the treasure trove of older movies that we have.

Are we starting early, chickenlittle? I'll have a mimosa.

Cheers!

A lot of that stuff was really dull, Troop.

The Boy's been watching the Marx Bros WB movies and the sometimes the songs work and sommetimes they don't--and those were among the better.
