So glad to hear it.
So glad to hear it.
I'm from Philly, born in 1968, and I scream/sang "Beau-ti-ful Mount Airy Lodge!" like some crazed Manchurian Candidate.
In pig latin!
I don't think it was the end of the Hays Code; I think it was the post-war effort to place the returning GIs back into society. The powers that be needed to get the women out of their war-time jobs to make room for the men and that meant convincing everyone that women's place was in the home. In the blink of an eye…
You know, what's really stunning about this film in that as much as it is a romantic comedy, Walter works hardest to get her to be true to herself than to get her back and the romance is almost an after-thought. I can't think of a single contemporary film with a female protagonist framed in this way. Maybe it was just…
Another favorite is that same scene in the office, when Walter says, "I still say I was tight the night I proposed to you! If you'd been a gentleman you would have forgotten all about it." But then, I could do this all day. :-)
She's OLD, isn't she?
The line reading on "I just thought it might be a good fire, that's all" should have won her an Oscar.
Notice that Angela trades her white shoes for black in the store which then elicits Price's approval? Binary good/evil imagery again, like "Gideon" vs. "Price". I think that's the externalization of the simple world Elliot desires, only - even through Mr. Robot's diatribes - he just can't make himself believe that it…
