So did Dorothy, and so did women who were referred to generically by men who couldn't be bothered to see them as individuals.
That's the point.

Supposedly, the scene in the restaurant, where Hoffmann comes in as Dorothy and starts hitting on Pollack, was based on a practical joke.  Hoffmann showed up in full drag and hit on Pollack, who was both terrorized and amazed, not recognizing Hoffmann and just thinking a really unattractive woman was accosting him in

To suggest classic movies worth watching, presumably.

Several years ago, One Life to Live decided to do a week of live broadcasts, trying to get their audience back or whatever.  The real trick to this was that one of their actors was known for being a bit of a loose cannon because even though he was making good bucks and getting awards, he hated being a soap star.

Ricky, let me suggest that you avoid the opera Satyagraha (spelling is probably wrong).  Sounds good for the first 20 minutes, and then you have to be a professional musician not to think that the next 3 hours are pretty much the same tune repeated.

It's funny.  It's just fucking funny.  It's a great movie to watch in a theatre (which I did, the first time) just to be in a room full of laughing people.

Oddly enough, this was the movie line that enlightened me as to the totally self-absorbed  personality.  Just like that, I got it.

I was in the middle of sexual congress when the story of his death came on the news (radio), and I started to cry.  Ruined the relationship, which wasn't worth much anyway, so there you go.

Don't be silly.  That Girl was Margo Thomas, and she's clearly too old to have been the girl in The Bus.

Show me a treatment for your new tv show The Judgement (working title), Mr. Monte.
I've heard good things about it.

Also that kidnapping a child and raising it as your own just doesn't work in the long run.  Sure, they're cute enough when they're still fluffy, but you can't fight the DNA.

That was Ernest Borgnine and his agent, right?

Would that be American or Chinese alligators?

At the end, the winner breaks the arms of the losers.

The Family, with the Italian family from NYC.  George Hamilton as the smarmy host.
It was fun, especially if you grew up in NYC in an Italian neighborhood.
For the opening title sequence, everything was in the same font as the original Godfather book.  Brilliant.

No point in telling us that?  Ha—a desperate (and successful) attempt to create envy.
