Nick revisits the only time legendary actor Walter Matthau hosted Saturday Night Live, offering behind-the-scenes stories from a wild week at 30 Rock. From writers' room pitches and cast reactions to what actually made it to air, it's a full breakdown of a strange, memorable night. Highlights include John Belushi's Cold Open as Fred Silverman, Matthau's pants-dropping monologue tease, and a Killer Bees sketch filled with masturbation jokes. With no musical guest, Garrett Morris stepped up with Mozart, and the Cheeseburger guys made an appearance—alongside some edgy material that still got big laughs. Plus, learn which iconic sketch was originally written for Matthau but went to someone else. [EP 125]

We're back to The Early Years of SNL as we return to S4 with acclaimed actor Walter Matthau taking his best swing at hosting. While lacking an official musical guest, the show delivers an unexpected treat with cast member Garrett Morris performing opera at Matthau's special request. Though the episode falls somewhere in the middle range quality-wise, it does showcase several fan-favorite recurring sketches as we revisit the Olympia Café, listen to Woman to Woman, and witness the final appearance of The Bees - marking the end of an era for one of Saturday Night Live's first and most iconic recurring bits.---------------------------------Subscribe today!Follow us on social media: X (Twitter): NR4PTProjectBluesky: nr4ptproject.bsky.socialInstagram: nr4ptprojectFacebook: The Not Ready for Prime Time ProjectContact Us: Website: https://www.nr4project.comEmail: nr4ptproject@gmail.com

It's finally time to tackle Walter Matthau's full filmography! We're not just talking about Matthau's must-see movies; we're ranking the crème de la crème that paint a vivid picture of his versatile acting chops. From the gritty heist in "Charley Varrick" to the laugh riots of "Grumpy Old Men" and the timeless charm of "The Odd Couple," we've got it all. Plus, we're not skimping on the suave suspense of "Charade" or his rock 'n' roll rumbling in "King Creole." Alongside a few surprise picks, we're peeling back the layers of Matthau's on-screen magic. If you thought you knew Walter Matthau, this episode might just have a few tricks up its sleeve. Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler

Can the frigit Minnesota setting nip at the hearts of viewers? Crack a cold Schmidt's and come warm up in the ice shanty with the Brains.

Dec 22-28: The most under-rated Batman movie, Lemmon and Matthau are grumpy, terrifying Mexican Santa, a legendary Zelda bomb, Nicole Kidman gets cold, Steve Martin's got too many kids, Ben Affleck's in it for the paycheck, Rocky fights Raging Bull, Keanu fights ronin, Ben Stiller daydreams, and the Doctor turns Scottish. All that and more as we look 30, 20, and 10 years ago.

Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau didn't team up for the first time in The Odd Couple, but it's one of their most-famous collaborations...and certainly one of their funniest. Feminized Lemmon is the sad, neat-freak and alpha-male Matthau is the brash slob. Clash! This begat an unsatisfying sequel 30 years later and many TV series, but the 1968 film was a blockbuster and remains one of the most-beloved "oil and water" comedies ever. Neil Simon adapted his own Broadway hit, then went on to become a writing legend. Gene Saks directed this movie, which is stagy and (not surprisingly for a 55-year-old comedy) a little dated, but those flaws don't ruin this parade of yuks. So don't let everything we do irritate you, even if the Ellises are our very own Oscar and Felix.

In this episode, we explore the life, loves and friendships of Truman Capote's Original Swan, Carol Marcus. Her name might not be familiar to you now, but hers is a story that is unforgettable. Including a rags to riches story, two husbands and three marriages, and two very best friends - Gloria Vanderbilt and Oona O'Neil Chaplin, Carol is also one of the main real-life inspirations for the character of Holly Golighty in Breakfast at Tiffany's.

On Episode 129 of @ready2retro, we're celebrating the 30th anniversary of "Grumpy Old Men" (1993) starring Hollywood legends Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. Join us as we share some highlights of Lemmon and Matthau's incredible careers indivudally and collectively, their hilarious chemistry and how this movie is so underrated! Also, Chris gives his thoughts about Season 1 of Cobra Kai. This and so much more!

Kerry and Collin are joined by their friend Christopher Grace ("Mixed Nuts" episode) to talk about this early-'90s classic comedy, "Grumpy Old Men," featuring the kings of the Odd Couples, Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. How is their chemistry with the great Ann-Margaret? Did Burgess Meredith write his own one-liners? How does Prince figure into all of this? All this, plus a look at two other films featuing Lemmon and Matthau (separately) in the We Just Say Book segment.  Book movies covered: "Bigger Than Life" (1956) "Le Jetee" (1962) "Glengarry Glen Ross" (1992)

It's Valentine's, so love is in the air! And also a 50-year rivalry, hilarious boyish pranks, and a new woman on the block. Grumpy Old Men surprises Mel this week with its sincere celebration of joie de vivre and Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau's ability to make her crack up. Ann-Margret's character gives us all something to aspire to, and Matthau's line lives on in infamy: eat my shorts. Grab your favorite “putz” or “schmuck” and give it a listen!

Welcome to episode 75, where we finally get to Rickey Henderson... just kidding, we're covering the 1976 classic The Bad News Bears, not to ever be mistaken with the 2000's era Billy Bob Thornton-era cluster****.  Walter Matthau pulls together a scrappy group of child rejects to SoCal Little League greatness.  We admire the hardcore 70's nature of the movie, the wide variety of cheap beer, and are touched by the fact that it's an actual movie with an actual plot.  Enjoy it with us!

What could go wrong when you convince a mathematician at a prestigious university that you're a genius, with the help of geniuses, just to go on a date with her? Not much, right? Right. This is I.Q. and, when I write it out this way, it seems wild. It is wild. Leave your practical brain at home and enjoy the performances, Matthau especially, and conceits of this movie as they come. Do your thing. Odds are you haven't seen and cannot easily see this movie anyway, so stay a while--and listen. @coolmarkd I want to point out that Princeton at this point in time was an absolute pop off of technology and research. I don't remember placing the exact year that this movie was set in (nor do I think that it particularly matters--it's roughly mid 50's) but at Princeton you could have run into John von Neumann who is, arguably, more important than Albert Einstein in a lot of ways. Check him out if you get a chance. This man's biography is where I learned that I do not like reading the biographies of people wildly more interesting than I am. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann

Heather Drain and Kat Ellinger join Mike to discuss Billy Wilder's Buddy Buddy (1981). The movie is yet another pairing of Walter Mathau and Jack Lemmon. This time they're filling the shoes of Lino Ventura and Jacques Brel in this remake of Edouard Molinaro's L'Emmerdeur. Matthau plays Trabucco, a ruthless hitman, while Lemmon plays Victor Clooney, a milquetoast whose wife left him three months prior. Naturally they get thrown together in the unlikeliest of circumstances and hilarity ensues.The episode features an interview with Miles Chapin and a loving tribute to Klaus Kinski.

It's about time Stuart and Jacob talk about another comedic film on the show. Hell, it's the only way the podcast will ever be funny. And today they aren't messing around, as Jacob as brought in what is highly regarded as a classic in the comedy space, as well as it's 1998 follow-up starring both Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon from the original! Will it compare? Or is it too infested with 90's sensibilities? Also in this episode is discussion on the Cloverfield cinematic universe, Neal Hefti's classic score, comedy duo's as a concept, and more than just a couple Matthau impressions.

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast we are talking to Charlie Matthau, son of acting great Walter Matthau and Carol Matthau. It's been a while since we've seen Charlie. You see, the connections run deep on this episode. Because our host Josh Mills mother, Edie Adams was close to Jack Lemmon, via the film The Apartment and Jack and Ernie Kovacs friendship on films like Operation Mad Ball, It Happened To Jane, Bell Book and Candle in the 1950s there was a familial bond. Cut to the 1970s and each Christmas, Edie and family would attend Jack Lemmon's Christmas party at his house which of course, always included the Matthau's. Additionally, all the families gathered on Broad Beach Road in Malibu each Summer which further cemented their friendship. There was much to talk about including conversations about The Fortune Cookie, Truman Capote, Howard Hughes, Micky and Nicky, Don Siegel, The Bad News Bears, Charly Varick, Billy Wilder, Vic Morrow, The Grass Harp, the Mormon Church, 1920: The Year of the Six Presidents, Jimmy Stewart and much more. Furthermore, we discuss how Charlie's mom – then known as Carol Grace - was the basis of the Holly Golightly character in Breakfast at Tiffany's played by Audrey Hepburn, how Walter Matthau once hosted the Oscars with an earpiece listening to a ballgame, how Walter got hired for a role for being ‘British.' Carol's much loved novella A Secret in the Daisy, Walter's middle name (cough) and much more. It was great to go down memory lane with Charlie on the latest episode of The Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story. Take a listen.

Beloved actor Paul Dooley dressed up as a clown and juggled his way out of a hardscrabble rural West Virginia childhood and onto the Broadway stage opposite Walter Matthau, and later played “Wimpy” in Robert Altman's classic film, Popeye.  On the way, he performed comedy in New York's Greenwich Village Vanguard and watched Lenny Bruce get his start. He sat in on several Sid Caesar's Your Show of Shows and later filmed his own memorable comedy stunts on Candid Camera. Paul was an early member of The Second City group and worked with many legends from Buster Keaton to Art Carney. While known by millions as America's most lovable screen dad, Paul was having his own real dad issues from his own father to his kids.

In this episode we cover 4 Walter Matthau films that are underrated and underappreciated. CHARLEY VARRICK (1973), A NEW LEAF (1971), THE TAKING OF PELHAM 123 (1974) and HOPSCOTCH (1980).

Our return week chugs on along with the first of two train-themed films that were brought to us by our guest, the amazing writer/ artist Bob Fingerman. First up, "The Taking of Pelham One Two Three" starring the late, great Walter Matthau in a real zipper of a movie. Some gun thugs take over a NYC subway car for a million dollar ransom and Matthau, a supervisor of sorts for the NYT and ex-cop gets involved with the process.  A truly unsung classic from the mid-70s. Listen in to hear what we thought of it.

We don't usually do this, but Kevin Smith came up during our premium MATTHAU MAY recording on THE ODD COUPLE, and our guest Will Sloan of the Important Cinema Club and Michael & Us briefly shared some thoughts on revisiting Kevin's films. So it felt appropriate to share this clip on the main feed as well.

Cine-Lit heads back to the crime vault for this latest podcast. Adam & Darrell look at an unusual period in Walter Matthau's career. Known for his comedy roles in films like The Fortune Cookie and The Odd Couple, Matthau took a sharp turn into crime territory with a three-film run between 1973 and 1974. Cine-Lit looks at this short blip (Charley Varrick, The Laughing Policeman and The Taking Of Pelham 123) in closer detail.Check out the Cine-Lit website for additional content and further reading: https://cinelitpodcast.wordpress.com.Edited by Steve Woodward at PodcastingEditor.com.

Walter Matthau and Tatum O'Neal received top billing in the 1976 film classic, "The Bad News Bears," but director Michael Ritchie coaxed great performances out of the group of young unknowns who made up the majority of the rest of the cast, including Erin Blunt, who plays Bears right fielder Ahmad Abdul Rahim. Forty-five years after the movie's release, Blunt joins "Stories with Street CRed" and reflects upon his audition for the Ahmad role, working with Oscar winners Matthau and O'Neal, and why "The Bad News Bears" still resonates all these years later.

In this episode we talk about the Neil Simon film adaptation of The Odd Couple starring Kaxk Lemmon and Walter Matthau. We talk about the actors, direction, and plot of the comedy. We also talk about the many other films Lemmon and Matthau would star in over the next three decades. Thanks for listening!

Now, before you start seeing red, hear us out—we pull quite a Fonzie this week, and not in the cute-older-Henry-Winkler-renaissance-we're-all-enjoying sense.

Well, it's time to get serious about remaking our containers – especially on the front porch and around the front door.   Editing containers from time to time is essential to keep them looking great.   Sometimes combinations don’t work well, other times plants can grow in unexpected ways – too tall, too bushy, or just an abject failure.    With the arrival of fall, it’s the perfect time to remove spent plants and replace them with selections that are more seasonally appropriate.   Fall pansies are wonderful to incorporate if you live in a cold climate. They can take the colder temperatures with no problem. Of course mums and asters and even grasses are wonderful in fall pots.   I always like to look for bargains at my local nurseries and big box stores. Sometimes those finds get placed in containers temporarily before they find a home in the garden.   And don’t forget you can include houseplants when you’re working with your fall containers. Pathos and Croton, even chopped up sections from an overgrown Boston fern are tremendous additions to fall containers.     Brevities #OTD Today is the anniversary of the death of the Irish botanist and friend of Linnaeus, Patrick Browne who died on this day in 1790.  There are no photographs of Patrick Browne - who was also a physician; but we was described this way: “The Doctor is a tall comely man, of good address and gentle manners, naturally cheerful, very temperate and in general health.” Browne's major work was The Civil and Natural History of Jamaicapublished in 1756 in which he described 104 new species. In fact, Browne's work was the first book in the English language to use Linnaeus' classification system. Linnaeus was very pleased with Browne's work. He told the botanist Peter Collinson (who was friends with John Bartram and Benjamin Franklin) that after he had read Browne's book he reflected “No author did I ever quit more instructed" and he gushed that Browne, "ought to be honored with a Golden Statue.” Browne named the genus to which cloves belong: Syzygium aromaticum.      #OTD   Today is the birthday of the German Austrian rosarian Rudolf Geschwind who was born on this day in 1829. As a child, Geschwind loved gardening. As a young man, he studied Forestry and his first job was working for the Austro-Hungarian Department of Forestry. Although he performed excellent work in the field of forestry, Geschwind's true passion was roses. At the age of 30, Geschwind began experimenting with breeding roses.  It was a pursuit he would perfect over the next five decades. Geschwind's speciality was breeding roses that were frost resistant. Geschwind created close to 150 rose cultivars. His prized collection of climbing roses were displayed at the 1889 World's Fair in Paris. When Geschwind died in 1910, the Countess Maria-Henrieta Chotek, known as "The Countess of Roses,"  or "The Pink Countess," purchased Geschwind's entire collection - including some which had never been made public. As a member of one of the most distinguished families of the Czech nobility, Chotek had the means to handle this impressive transfer. In fact, Chotek was so serious about the effort to preserve Geschwind's work that she sent two of her gardeners to oversee the transfer of the collection. It was no small affair - it involved packing and moving over 2,000 roses to her estate - the Manor House or Castle known as Dolna Krupa. Over a century before Dolna Krupa was the place where Beethoven is presumed to have written his Moonlight Sonata. Maria-Henrieta's great grandfather, Jozef, was friends with Beethoven and he allowed Beethoven to live at Dolna Krupa for nearly a decade. Maria-Henrieta Chotek was born almost 60 years after Beethoven's stay at Dolna Krupa in 1863. As a woman who never married, her inheritance allowed her to pursue her passion for roses with abandon - and she did. She was in her 30's when she inherited Dolna Krupa. Once it was all hers, she set about creating one of the top three rosaria in Europe. During its prime, the rosaria at Dolna Krupa rivaled the roseria in France and the Rosarium of Sangerhausen in Germany. Chotek was a woman of action and she didn't just direct activities - she was very hands on. As a rosarian herself, Chotek developed new cultivars and conducted experiments. One time while visiting an exhibition, Chotek watched as a German horticulturist named Johannes Böttner presented a rambling rose called the Fragezeichen which means the "Question Mark" (What a great name!) The rose intrigued Henrieta Chotek so much, that she immediately left for Frankfurt to see the Fragezeichen trials personally. The year 1914 marked a turning point in Chotek's life and in the fate of many of Geschwind's roses. That year, in June, the Rose Congress was held at Zweibrücken. Chotek's work and rosaria were honored. But in the days following the event, Marie Henrieta's cousin, Sophie Chotek Ferdinand, wife of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, was murdered alongside her husband in Saraevo and World War I had begun. Chotek swung in to action; this time as nurse caring for wounded soldiers. When the war was over, her rosarium was destroyed. Chotek immediately set about rebuilding her rosarium. She even began a rose breeding school right on the grounds pf Dolna Krupa. But, lacking the means and the energy of youth, Chotek was never able to restore Dolna Krupa to its former glory. During WWII, Dolna Krupa was ransacked by the Russian Army. In February, 1946, destitute and sick, Chotek died while in the care of nuns. She was 83 years old. Today, the Music Museum at Dolna Krupa holds a Rose Celebration in honor of Chotek. Tourists visit Dolna Krupa, primarily to see the place Beethoven lived. Visitors bring their own baskets and collect leaves of the wild garlic that grows rampant on the grounds of the estate.         Unearthed Words Here's an excerpt from a poem called A Year's Windfallsby the English poet, Christina Rossetti: "In the parching August wind,  Cornfields bow the head,  Sheltered in round valley depths,  On low hills outspread.  Early leaves drop loitering down Weightless on the breeze,  First-fruits of the year's decay  From the withering trees."  Christina Rossetti wrote the words to two of my favorite Christmas Carols: "In the Bleak Midwinter" and "Love Came Down at Christmas". It was Christina Rossetti who said, "My garden cannot be anything other than "my self."     Today's book recommendation: Colors from Nature by Bobbi McRae Colors from Nature was published in 1993. McRae shares how to grow plants to collect, prepare and use natural dyes.   Today's Garden Chore Now's the perfect time to relocate your hostas to improve the aesthetic of your garden. It's hard to know sometimes when you plant a hosta how you will feel about it once it's matured. When they are little, we often place hostas in a haphazard fashion - here's an empty spot - let's stick a hosta there. If you're not careful, the garden can end up looking like the hosta version of a patchwork quilt. And while you're placing them, remember that your blue or darker hostas like more shade - while the lighter colors of the yellowy green hostas and variegated hostas can take more sun.     Something Sweet  Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart #OTD On this day in 1915 Ingrid Bergman, the actress, was born in Stockholm, Sweden. (She also died on the same day in 1982 at the age of 67.) Bergman appeared in a number of films including the iconic Casablanca. In 1969, Bergman appeared in a movie called Cactus Flower. Bergman was portraying a nurse named Stephanie Dickinson working in a Dentist's office. The dentist was played by Walter Matthau. Gardeners adore the movie Cactus Flower for the following lines read by Bergman: Early in the film Bergman is talking to Matthau and she puts him in his place by saying, "Doctor, you once compared me to my cactus plant. Well, every so often, that prickly little thing puts out a flower." Then, later in the film she memorably exclaims, "My cactus! It's blooming!"     Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

Having the face of a basset hound and the demeanor of an angry cabbie, Walter Matthau was a born character actor, known best for roles like the sinister Dr. Groeteschele in Fail-Safe and the double-crossing Hamilton Bartholomew of Cary Grant's Charade. But starting in the 1970's, Matthau managed to turn his Odd Couple act into box office gold, and scored a string of hits that made him America's least-likely leading man. Join us as MG takes on two of his best: 1974's subway-heist classic The Taking of Pelham 123, featuring Robert Shaw of Jaws fame, and 1980's brilliant, underseen, and infinitely watchable comedy Hopscotch!

An episode that began as an aside to the Rocky episodes grew into a lengthy conversation about how The Bad News Bears demands relevancy in 2018, which grew into an even longer conversation about the Bad News Bears sequels, pre-ordained judgment of said sequels, and the mistreatment of classic cinema in a modern era that prefers to scrub clean the unfortunate realities of prior generations.  Subscribe on iTunes / Stitcher Radio CREDITS: Talking Heads: James David Patrick (@007hertzrumble) - Played baseball into college when his stubborn streak (and a bad elbow) derailed his plans.

For READY PLAYER ONE we do some counting of our own, though as usual we can only manage getting up to two movies. No matter, as this time our original film is the Walter Matthau starring THE TAKING OF PELHAM ONE TWO THREE from 1974 and our remake casts Denzel Washington in 2009 for the same part as a train conductor trying to negotiate the release of hostages in New York's subway tunnels. If you want to continue the counting game, try your hand at how many expletives John Travolta throws out during his negotations and also how many times host Peter lets you know that he continues to hate Mr. Matthau.

Continuing the theme of politics in film comes the story of a man with a bombastic and charismatic personality who creates his name through the media to become the dubious voice of the masses. That man is Larry "Lonesome" Rhodes as played by Andy Griffith in Elia Kazan's 1957 film A Face in the Crowd. While the film didn't find an audience for nearly 20 years after the release, it has since become one of the prophetic films that showed a vision of American politics that seems to cut closer to reality the older it gets. But does this film deserve the seat at the top or should it be shown the shaft?

Walter Matthau is an old CIA man who has a boss, Ned Beatty, who is a bit of a prick. He decides to make an example out of Matthau, who decides he would rather not put up with it. Along with  Glenda Jackson (who has a level of natural charm and charisma that ranks right up there with Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly) he sets out to have some fun. That's all we will tell you. This is one of those rare movies that fun without being stupid, smart without being condescending, and completely enjoyable from beginning to end. It is tight, quick, and... honestly, it's just a fantastic film. So, check it out on Hulu, Amazon, or iTunes. You will be glad you did. Once you've watched it, join us in our discussion of this incredible movie. Next week: Spine number 175: Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas Also, check this out.

    Zom picked us a couple 70s gritty crime flicks set in the great state of California just in time for Christmas! First we discuss THE OUTSIDE MAN from 1972 then move to THE LAUGHING POLICEMAN from 1973! Matthau and Scheider in one week. Dig it! Music this week: Sublime – April 29, 1992 […] The post Episode 161: Gritty Cali Crime appeared first on Silva and Gold.

Daley, Bart and Jamie dig into what's likely to be the funniest movie of the summer. Jamie hopes in vain that bromance will blossom into true romance, Bart contemplates Tatum and Hill as a modern day Matthau and Lemon and Daley gets himself into marital trouble once again.

Taking your conservative parents to Burning Man is one thing. Filming every moment is another. This marks a particularly special episode of The Lapse: two storytellers, one story. Speaking to co-directors Joel Ashton McCarthy and Bryant "Spry Bry" Boesen was a treat. Matthau and Lemon would be proud; they're an Odd Couple in the best sense, just mismatched enough to compliment one another. In a lot of ways, Joel has more in common with Charles and Lee, Bryant's parents. Rather than give away its namesake, aptly named Taking My Parents to Burning Man, this episode explores more of the dynamic between Joel and Bryant. I think it's a pretty fabulous companion piece. Two voices is a lot of work to edit with, so settle in for something special. It might be a while before this kind of episode again. In the meantime, you need to see this movie. Get tickets at the Soho Film Festival in New York for May 17th now because the film has sold out at every screening thus far. You can also buy tickets in Vancouver at the Rio Theatre on May 30th and May 31st. Bryant Boesen is moving on to his next Burning Man-esque venture with The Art of Expression. It's beautiful. Just incredibly gorgeous. You can also watch him breathe fire which is worth hitting up for that alone. Joel McCarthy is just about to enter production on After Film School, a delightfully black comedy that's being funded in part by Telus. The pitch video already makes me smile. After you listen to this, you can get a whole free freakin' audiobook! Visit www.audibletrial.com/TheLapse. Seriously, they're run by Amazon and their selection is amazing. They want to help hosting this show a little and give you guys free stuff in the process, but only if you hit that link. Get your free audiobook now.

This week Dave and Noah get a case of the "grumpies" and head over to Wabasha, MN  for 1993's Grumpy Old Men.  This is the conclusion of our Four part Summer series Fatty Goes Local, where we celebrate all Rom Coms related to Minnesota. Grumpy Old Men stars The-Odd-Couple-turned-Old-timers Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. These two are proof positive that you don't need a family to have a feud, just a neighbor. Having spent decades feuding over the love of one woman, (who oddly enough isn't in the picture), Matthau and Lemmon find new realms in their contempt for each other after Ann-Margret moves in next door. Madison, the mermaid from Splash pops up in this, to give us a palette cleanser from all the liver spots. Noah tells us why we must avoid Lake Pepin. Dave gets blinded by a date, revved up like a deuce, which, in turn, makes him another runner in the night.

Patricia Ward Kelly joins host Robin Milling to share her memories and behind-the-scenes stories of her late husband Gene Kelly who directed Hello Dolly, now out in a beautifully restored Blu-ray from 1969. Patricia who was married to Kelly from 1990-1996 tells Robin she recorded his stories over the course of a decade writing his memoirs, and shares some of his more personal Hello Dolly ditties on the Blu-ray feature, 'Gene Kelly Remembered.' Patricia says the well documented riff between stars Barbra Streisand and Walter Matthau was in fact true that Walter didn't want to be there and often thought Barbra was stealing his close-ups. She adds light to the myth that Matthau detested kissing Streisand, chalking it up to 'a chemical reaction that didn't work for him.' Gene also revealed to Patricia that Phantom of the Opera star Michael Crawford almost didn't get to sing It Only Takes A Moment because producers thought his voice was too tiny! Patricia is championing Gene Kelly's centennial year with screenings of Singin' In The Rain accompanied by a full blown orchestra throughout the world. She is currently writing a book about their life together and hopes Kelly's legacy will be remembered as not only a consummate talent but a true romantic.

Live from La Java in Paris, Greg makes mention of Matthau, models and Metzner.
