I think that is what his audience wanted, no nuance, just punch every thing in sight! He did make two movies where he actually did act. His last, The Shootist, where he was thoughtful, and some what introspective, of course, he was dying in real life. The second, The Wings Of Eagles, about Frank...
For me, Big Band music brings back two warm and fuzzy memories. First, my mother listing to it on the Magnavox, and second, all the times flying airshows in the 80s and 90s.
Now theirs a word I have not heard in a couple of decades! I personally have never post dated a check, though I remember the signs, "no post dated checks accepted!" On a funny note, I accidentally dated a check several years ago with the year 1969, I did get the month and day right, it was...

The Clock (1945) Sad how young both Joe Allen and Judy Garland died. Was their a WWII movie with out Allen playing a young soldier? An exaggeration, but he sure was in a lot of them during the war!
I envy you people that can remember your old phone numbers. I can't remember any of my old numbers except the one from my mid teens,and that is only because it was my mothers number for the rest of her life. I can't remember most of the street names or address, just my first two, because they...
