Unfortunately, I can't technically be there during the entire marathon real time because I live in the west coast ;) Kind of early! Haha, but I will watch as much as possible and these are great films, even my absolute favorite (AUNTIE MAME).

I am still here!

Hello everyone!


Contrary to what you might think, I am still alive. It looks like I may have been on a bit of a hiatus from my blog here. I had no idea school would take up as much time as it did. I don't even have time to watch movies anymore. (What a shocker!) Well, the dreadful semester will be over in 2 weeks. I am looking forward to May 19, my last final :) Anyway, do my fellow Americans know about the Rosalind Russell marathon on TCM on Wednesday, May 25? I am looking forward to that! What a great way to end the semester. Anyhoo, I thought I would start something new.... I was thinking of doing a periodic poll on my blog relating to different things (usually having to do with Roz, but maybe about other things as well...)


What do you all think? :)

I hope we haven't lost too many of you! ;)

New Photos

Well, these are the photos I bought from Larry Edmund's bookstore when I was in L.A. (http://www.larryedmunds.com). Just a few with her son that I'd never seen before.

Trip to L.A.

Hello, everyone. Well, I went up to L.A. this weekend, starting on Thursday and came back yesterday afternoon. I had the wonderful opportunity to meet two online friends who are classic movie fans like me. I have known them almost a year and it was an amazing experience I will never forget! 


While I was there, I saw several things related to Roz--her grave, her house, her footprints and handprints at Grauman's Chinese Theater, her star on the Walk of Fame, and the church she went to, which was down a few blocks from her house. It was really fun and here are some pictures of those things...

And YES, this huge thing is all Roz's grave!

Roz at Elizabeth Taylor's Wedding...

I realized I have only seen one photo of Roz with Elizabeth Taylor.... I wish I knew more about any relationship between the two, but as of now, I only have the evidence of the photo... Elizabeth was so young at the time. 

(I'm still a little sad over Liz's death).

Elizabeth Taylor (1932-2011)

I think this is the first time I've written a post that is non-Roz. But when I heard the news this morning that Liz Taylor had died, I had tears in my eyes. She was one of my favorites and I was shocked at the news, even knowing her condition. I think she was the most beautiful actress I have ever seen and she wasn't just beauty like many were. She had brains, too, and talent. You'll agree with me if you have seen her in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" I was blown away by her performance and the ending makes me cry along with her every time. She was truly amazing, gorgeous, and a true star in the best sense of the word.

Rest in peace, Liz. We'll never forget you.

I think if you press on each one, you can see it in a new window a little bit bigger :)
