EPISODE 44 - "THERESA HARRIS: HOW OLD HOLLYWOOD STOPPED HER STAR FROM RISING" - 07/15/2024 ** This episode is sponsored brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/BENEATH and get on your way to being your best self.” ** When THERESA HARRIS appears on screen, you cannot take your eyes off of her. Beautiful, talented, and a skilled singer and dancer, she lights up any scene she's in. Despite appearing in over 100 films, she rarely received screen credit and most often played a maid, waitress, or other types of domestic servant. Her parts were small, but her charisma and presence on screen were enormous! As a black woman in the early days of Hollywood, she was limited in the roles she could perform by the restrictive Hayes Code of 1934 and the horrible Jim Crow laws of the South. Still, she is a welcome presence in so many classic films. This week, we look at the extraordinary life and career of the talented THERESA HARRIS.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: “Theresa Harris, Credited and Uncredited in Over 100 Films,” March 28, 2024, by Herb Boyd, New York Amsterdam News; “Just a Maid in Movies, But Not Forgotten,” April 21, 2011, by Manohla Dargis, The New York Times; “The Underrated Charms of Theresa Harris,” July 11, 2020, by Constance Cherise, TCM.com; “Theresa Harris: Television and Film Actress of the 1930s,” August 18, 2023, by Jae Jones, BackThen.com; “Actress Theresa Harris Hollywood Vixen Turned Servant,”September 2, 2011, by Veronica Wells, Madamenoire; IMDBPro.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Thunderbolt (1929), starring Fay Wray and George Brent; Hold Your Man (1932), starring Jean Harlow and Clark Gable; Baby Face (1933), starring Barbara Stanwyck and George Brent; Professional Sweetheart (1933), starring Ginger Rogers, Norman Foster, and Zasu Pitts; Horse Feathers (1932), starring The Marx Brothers and Thelma Todd; Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933), starring Joan Blondell, Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler, and Ginger Rogers; Morning Glory (1933), starring Katharine Hepburn and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr; Flying Down to Rio (1933), starring Delores Del Rio, Gene Raymond, Ginger Rogers, and Fred Astaire; Broadway Melody of 1936 (1935), starring Jack Benny and Eleanor Powell; Banjo On My Knee (1936), starring Barbara Stanwyck and Joel McCrea; Bargain With Bullets (aka The Gangster's On The Loose) (1937), starring Ralph Cooper and Theresa Harris; Jezebel (1938), starring Bette Davis, Henry Fonda, and George Brent; Tell No Tales (1939), starring Melvyn Douglas and Louise Platt; Buck Benny Rides Again (1940), starring Jack Benny, Ellen Drew, Eddie “Rochester” Anderson, and Theresa Harris; What's Buzzin' Cousin?

In “It's A Wonderful Life,” BEULAH BONDI played the most loving mother to JAMES STEWART. Ma Bailey is the epitome of sweetness, kindness, and supportiveness so it's quite shocking when we meet the Ma Bailey who would have existed had George Bailey not been born. She's cold, bitter, and unkind. It gives Bondi the wonderful opportunity to play two versions of the same character, which she does flawlessly. So to celebrate Mother's Day, Nan and Steve are taking a page from Bondi's playbook as they discuss the good and bad mothers of classic cinema.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Moms in the Movies (2014), by Richard Corliss; Actresses of a Certain Character (2007), by Axel Nissen; Irene Dunne: First Lady of Hollywood (2006), by Wes D.

EPISODE 30 - “Robert Walker: Old Hollywood's Tragic Boy Next Door” - 04/08/2024 No one played sensitive, lost souls quite like ROBERT WALKER. However, he is best known for playing one of the most complicated, psychopaths in film history, Bruno Antony in ALFRED HITCHCOCK's masterpiece “Strangers On A Train” (1951).

This week, Jeff gripes about AMC A-List reservations and what they can learn from bars and airlines before the boys discuss the incredible 1939 film year, leading to our featured conversation about the nostalgic British boarding school film ‘Goodbye, Mr. Chips'. Directed by staunch anti-commie Sam Wood, this movie stars Robert Donat in an Oscar-winning role, and Greer Garson in her first-ever film, and the first of her 5 consecutive years with Best Actress nominations, tied for the most ever with Bette Davis. This movie may not have the name recognition of some other 1939 films, such as ‘Gone With The Wind', ‘The Wizard of Oz', ‘Mr. Smith Goes To Washington', or ‘Stagecoach', but it may have inspired every boarding school movie you've ever seen, especially the ‘Harry Potter' series! We provide some additional 1939 context and tease next week's episode.

If you'd have tuned your radio to NBC's New York flagship, WEAF, at 7:30 PM on Tuesday February 8th, 1944 you'd have heard Ronald Coleman host the Autolite Sponsored, Everything For the Boys. The guest star was Greer Garson. NBC owned the ratings on Tuesdays with six of the top seven shows. Opposite of Everything For The Boys, CBS ran a concert, WOR-Mutual ran news, and WJZ of the Blue Network ran The Girl Back Home. “Barkley Square” is a fantasy play about a man who desires so much to go back in time that he somehow achieves it. At 8:00PM, The Ginny Simms Show took to the air. That month, the show's rating was 14.6. Roughly eleven million people tuned in. Opposite, CBS aired Big Town, WOR aired The Black Castle, while WJZ aired news. At 8:30 NBC aired A Date With Judy, a female-driven situation comedy starring Louise Erickson. Opposite CBS ran The Judy Canova Show, while WJZ aired Duffy's Tavern and WOR ran the quiz show, Battle of the Boroughs. This was the most competitive time slot as far as ratings went. In February A Date With Judy pulled a 9.6, while The Judy Canova Show pulled a 12.6, and Duffy's Tavern had a 14.6. Louise Erickson was three weeks shy of her sixteenth birthday. She held the role until 1949. The series was popular enough that, in response, CBS developed Meet Corliss Archer. After The Molle Mystery Theater aired at 9 PM, the three top-rated shows on radio aired in succession, beginning with the just-heard Jim Jordan co-starring in Fibber McGee and Molly. The February 8th episode was called “Homemade Ice Cream” and had a rating of 35.7. More than twenty-seven million people tuned in. After Fibber McGee and Molly signed off, Bob Hope's Pepsodent Program signed on at 10PM.

Welcome to this week's episode of “Friday Night Noir” on Vintage Classic Radio, where we dive into the thrilling world of suspense-filled radio dramas. As we continue our Christmas holiday celebrations, we have a special double bill lined up from the iconic “Suspense” radio series. Our first feature is the captivating episode titled "Twas The Night Before Christmas," originally aired on December 21st, 1953. This masterful tale, written by the talented duo of Mort Lewis and David Friedkin, takes us on a gripping journey set against the backdrop of the festive season. In this story, we're introduced to a family whose Christmas Eve takes a turn for the unexpected. The household's tranquil holiday preparations are abruptly interrupted, leading to a series of suspenseful and mysterious events that captivate the listener. The episode's cast brings the story to life with their compelling performances. The talented ensemble includes Greer Garson, who delivers a remarkable performance, bringing depth and emotion to her character. Accompanying her are Olan Soule, Anne Whitfield, and Howard McNear, each adding their unique flair to the narrative. Next, we step back a bit further in time to December 21st, 1950, for the "Christmas for Carole" episode, starring the charming and versatile Dennis Day. This story, penned by the ingenious writer Walter Bazzar, unfolds a touching narrative filled with intrigue and sentiment. Dennis Day shines in his role, portraying a character whose life intertwines with unexpected twists and heartfelt moments. The episode is a beautiful blend of suspense and emotion, making it a perfect listen for the holiday season. Alongside Dennis Day, the cast includes Lurene Tuttle, who delivers a stellar performance. The episode also features the talents of Howard McNear and Joseph Kearns, each contributing to the rich, suspenseful atmosphere that "Suspense" is renowned for. Both episodes are exemplary representations of the golden age of radio, where storytelling was an art form that relied solely on voice, sound effects, and the listener's imagination. As we revisit these timeless classics, we're not only entertained but also reminded of the sheer power of audio in creating vivid, captivating worlds. Join us for a nostalgic trip down memory lane with these two thrilling episodes from “Suspense,” and experience the magic of radio drama at its finest.

For our latest episode, we dust off an old chestnut that's based on an even older chestnut, both of which cumulatively are such moldy old chestnuts that you've probably never heard of either. We dug deep, baby! This time, we go way back to 1951's The Law and the Lady, a very loose adaptation of a 1925 play starring Greer Garson, Fernando Lamas, and Michael Wilding as the biggest simp ever committed to celluloid. Thrill as he spinelessly pines after his partner in crime as they attempt to steal a necklace from a blustering old American lady! Cheer as both he and his partner refuse to ever act upon their emotions for no solid reason! Laugh as the old rich lady bellows loudly at anyone within ear shot! Is there a way to dust off this weirdly-unbalanced and endlessly-retooled bit of theatrical ephemera? Well, sure, probably, but no one involved here really did it. Also we drink a tea cocktail, and those are always fun. Continue reading →

[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] The year is 1946 and the nominees are: 1. Joan Crawford - Mildred Pierce 2. Ingrid Bergman - The Bells of St. Mary's  3. Greer Garson - The Valley of Decision 4. Jennifer Jones - Love Letters 5. Gene Tierney - Leave Her to Heaven - In 1946 Joan Crawford won the Best Actress Oscar for Mildred Pierce in one of the greatest Hollywood comeback stories of all time. After being dropped by MGM Crawford signed with Warner Studios. She didn't work for years because she spent her time studying and learning what made a good script. Along comes Mildred Pierce and the rest is history. Some hits and misses this year. Really enjoyed Gene Tierney and Greer Garson in their respective films. Bergman is always a delight to watch but TBOSM isn't exactly a high stakes plot. Jennifer Jones was perhaps my least favourite of the group. These are just my thoughts! Tune in to this week's episode to hear more!  Who do you think should have won? Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Josh Murray as they discuss.

"Give a boy a sense of humor and a sense of proportion and he'll stand up to anything."REBROADCASTLearning Lessons That Last a Lifetime With Mr. ChipsRobert Donat defied the odds and beat both Clark Gable and Jimmy Stewart for the Best Actor Oscar in the 1940 Academy Awards with his portrayal of Mr. Chips in Sam Wood's Goodbye, Mr. Chips. It's a movie that celebrates school heroes everyone had (or should've) and connects in its ability to reflect back on the nostalgia of one's life. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our series on films from 1939 with Wood's film. Here's What We Chat AboutWe talk about how we felt about the film and, despite any issues we had, still found it affecting. We chat about Robert Donat and Greer Garson, both of whom really give touching and honest performances. We touch on Wood as the director and what he brings to the table. We discuss the story and why stories about teachers can work so well, and why they work on us in particular. And we look at the magnificent work Jack Dawn did with the hair and makeup to bring Mr. Chips to life over the course of his 60+ years, from new hire to headmaster. It's a touching film that works to connect us with this character and reminds us what we love about the best ‘great teacher' movies.

Academy Award Theater-461120-Brief Encounter Starring Greer Garson

[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] The year is 1942 and the nominees are: 1) Joan Fontaine - Suspicion 2) Bette Davis - The Little Foxes 3) Olivia de Havilland - Hold Back the Dawn 4) Greer Garson - Blossoms in the Dust 5) Barbara Stanwyck - Ball of Fire - In 1942 Joan Fontaine won Best Actress for Alfred Hitchcock's Suspicion (a movie title he allegedly hated). Many pundits think she won because she did not win the previous year when she was nominated for Rebecca (1940 (Ginger Rogers won FYI (deservedly))). There is a little bit of classic Hollywood drama this year as Olivia de Havilland (Fontaine's sister) was also nominated and lost. Not a feud of Bette Davis and Joan Crawford proportions but one that is worth researching. Plenty of YouTube docs available on this subject! Bette Davis received her fourth Oscar nomination in a row for The Little Foxes. Greer Garson gives one of her best performances in Blossoms in the Dust. Finally Barbara Stanwyck gives a hilarious performance in Ball of Fire, a sort of Snow White & the Seven Dwarves meets the Big Bang Theory sort of film. A truly enjoyable year! Who do you think should have won? Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Bobby Knauff as they discuss.

It's our first episode with a special guest! Sam aka samsingsongs on Tiktok joined us to talk about the 1940 movie adaptation of Pride and Prejudice starring Greer Garson and Laurence Olivier. We're deep into the Hays Code and no one's really trying to do a British accent, but how do we all feel about the movie in the end? Let's find out!

[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] The year is 1940 and the nominees are: Vivien Leigh - Gone with the Wind Bette Davis - Dark Victory Irene Dunne - Love Affair Greta Garbo - Ninotchka Greer Garson - Goodbye, Mr. Chips In 1940 Vivien Leigh won the Oscar for Best Actress and is regarded, by some, as the greatest Best Actress Oscar win of all time. A role which Bette Davis admitted as being furious for not being cast in. If you've seen ‘Feud' they make a few funny jokes about this. Although Davis did not play Scarlett, she still was a nominee that year for Dark Victory, playing a woman with a terminal brain tumour. Irene Dunne and Greta Garbo give really fun rom-com performances in Love Affair and Ninotchka (you can watch these films on YouTube). Greer Garson became a first time nominee in a brief, but memorable, performance in Goodbye, Mr. Chips. It's hard to imagine anyone but Leigh winning this Oscar but it's fun watching these performances. Who do you think should have won? Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Joe Arsenal as they discuss.

In part 2 of our Warner Archive January release highlights, George Feltenstein reviews three films scheduled for Blu-ray release on January 24th.  We start off with the 1954 road comedy "The Long, Long Trailer" starring Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz and directed by Vincente Minelli. Next, we review "Goodbye, Mr. Chips" (1939), starring Robert Donat who won a best-actor Oscar for his role as "Chippy," a beloved teacher at an all-boys English boarding school.  This was the film debut of his costar Greer Garson as the independent woman he falls in love with. The third film we discuss is the 1936 romantic comedy "Wife Versus Secretary," featuring a star-studded cast of Clark Gable, Jean Harlow, Myrna Loy, an up-and-coming James Stewart, and directed by Clarence Brown.  We finish up our discussion with an update on some operation delays in January and how that impacts the February and March releases.Purchase:Wife Versus Secretary Blu-rayGoodbye, Mr. Chips Blu-rayThe Long, Long Trailer Blu-rayOur Dancing Daughters Blu-rayRancho Notorious Blu-ray The Extras Facebook pageThe Extras Twitter Warner Archive & Warner Bros Catalog GroupOtaku Media produces podcasts, behind-the-scenes extras, and media that connect creatives with their fans and businesses with their consumers.

Merry Christmas! What's your favorite Christmas movie or show? There are many excellent Christmas shows and movies to see, but there's one show that, for me and my sister, Karen, beats them all. It's the 1968 TV show “The Little Drummer Boy.” Not the animated cartoon, but the original stop-motion show by Rankin & Bass and narrated by the incredible Greer Garson. Today on the podcast, let me share some of YOUR favorites, and then I'll tell you why I love this vintage TV show so much. Hint. It's about Joy.  

Greer Garson in Twas The Night Before Christmas

This week we cover maybe the nuttiest version of Pride and Prejudice, the 1940 movie adaptation, starring Greer Garson and Lawrence Olivier. It's an adaptation that has to be seen to be believed and we do our best to chronicle all of its eccentricities. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mannersandmadness/support

for a half hour dramatization from the same book. This play Madame Curie which was a Metro Goldwyn Meyer screenplay, deals not only with that thrilling search for radium but with a man and woman whose love for each other was as great as their love for humanity and truth and who fought for both with sacrifice and courage. It stars Greer Garson and Walter Pigeon in their original screen roles as Madame Curie and Pierre her husband. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ang189/support

Remark lindi në 22 qershor 1898 në Osnabryk të Gjermanisë. Një vit, pasi kishte filluar kolegjin si mësues, në nëntor të vitit 1916 shkruhet në ushtri. Plagoset nga një granatë në këmbën e majtë, krahun e djathtë dhe në qafë. Atëherë fillon të punojë për një roman mbi luftën. Del nga spitali, për të kaluar në batalionin e parë të këmbimit, në regjimentin 78 të ushtrisë në Osnabrück. I jepet medalja “Ylli i Ferrit”, klasi i parë, në Duisburg nga ana e Këshillit të Punëtorëve dhe Ushtarëve të Osnabrückut, por shkarkohet nga ushtria dhe heq dorë nga medaljet dhe dekorimet. Rifillon studimet e lëna për gjysmë dhe më pas punon për pak kohë si mësues filloreje. Në 29 janar të vitit 1929, publikohet si libër “Asgjë e re nga fronti i perëndimit” në Berlin. Ndërkohë punon për dy vepra paralelisht. Në 29 prill vjen shfaqja e parë e filmit “Asgjë të re nga fronti i perëndimit” me regji të Lewis Milestone, i cili për herë të parë shfaqet në Gjermani në muajin dhjetor. Ka reagime nga nacional – socialistët e Gjermanisë të udhëhequr nga Joseph Goebbels. Filmi ndalohet dhe çohet për kontroll në Berlin. Në vitin 1931 propozohet për Çmimin Nobel për paqen. Një vit më vonë fillon punën për një nga kryeveprat e tij “Tre shokët“. Në 10 maj ndalohen të gjitha librat e Remarkut në Berlin dhe në nëntor policia konfiskon “Asgjë e re nga fronti i perëndimit”. Në vitin 1938 publikohet në gjermanisht “Tre shokët” në Amsterdam dhe në 20 maj vjen shfaqja e parë kinematografike e këtij romani me regji të Frank Borzage. Në 4 korrik çatdhetarizohet nga Gjermania dhe disa muaj më vonë edhe bashkëshortja e tij Ilse Jutta Zambona. Nis punën për “Harkun e Triumfit“. Në shtator të vitit 1939 shkon në Los Angelos ku do të nisë një histori dashurie me Marlene Dietrich. Atje njihet me Greer Garson, Orson Welles, Igor Strawinsky, Arthur Rubinstein, Lion Feuchtwanger, Emil Ludwig, Thomas Mann, Bertolt Brecht, Cary Grant, Luggi Wolff e Brigitte Neuner – Wolff dhe shumë artistë të tjerë emigrantë. I jep fund lidhjes së ngushtë me Marlene Dietrich dhe disa muaj më vonë do të krijojë një lidhje të shkurtër me Greta Garbo. Në shtator të vitit 1942 zhvillon një takim me zv/ presidentin amerikan Wallace për të diskutuar mbi një aksion të mundshëm anti – fashist. Në tetor të vitit 1943 vendoset përfundimisht në New York. Në 15 dhjetor Elfriede Remarque (e motra) dënohet me vdekje nga Gjykata Naziste për “sabotim” dhe vritet në Berlin, lajm të cilin shkrimtari e mësoi dy vjet më vonë. Në 25 gusht 1944 përfundon versionin e parë të “Harkut të Triumfit“, i cili botohet në muajin dhjetor në New York dhe disa muaj më vonë edhe në gjermanisht. Shumë shpejt fillon të punojë mbi romanin “Kohë për të jetuar, kohë për të vdekur”. Është koha kur shëndeti i tij fillon të lëkundet. Fillon mjekimet dhe mëson se ka diabet.

Calum and Chris discuss the 1942 nominees for Best Actress in a Leading Role, which were Bette Davis in Now Voyager, Katharine Hepburn in Woman of the Year, Rosalind Russell in My Sister Eileen, Teresa Wright in The Pride of the Yankees, and Greer Garson in Mrs. Miniver.

As we arrive at the 15th Best Picture winner, Mrs Miniver, we find ourselves in the depths of the cinematic output during World War Two. As such, the Academy Award winners during the era reflected an optimism or jingoism that was needed to drive people to support the war effort. William Wyler's film is one such winner, with Greer Garson taking the lead and winning the Best Actress award. Co-hosts Dave and Andrew skirt around discussing Mrs Miniver as they seek to find the entry point for this enduring classic, while discussing the optimistic array of the 1942 Best Picture nominees, while also comparing the new normal of wartime and the new normal of our current pandemic era.
