Roughly Speaking Roughly Speaking is a 1945 American comedy-drama film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Rosalind Russell and Jack Carson. The plot involves a strong-minded mother keeping her family afloat through World War I and the Great Depression. The film was based on the autobiography of the same name, published in 1943, by Louise Randall Pierson.
Book Vs. Movie: GypsyThe 1957 Memoir Vs. the 1962 Movie“Musicals in March!”The Margos celebrate another “Musicals in March” episode with Gypsy. Gypsy Rose Lee's 1957 memoir tells her real-life story of growing up in vaudeville and burlesque under the domineering influence of her mother, Rose Hovick. It paints a detailed picture of her childhood alongside her more naturally talented younger sister, June (later June Havoc), and how Gypsy (born Louise Hovick) eventually became the most famous burlesque performer of her time. The book is witty and self-deprecating and offers an unvarnished yet entertaining look at her complex relationship with her mother. The movie Gypsy is based on the successful 1959 Broadway musical by Jule Styne, Stephen Sondheim, and Arthur Laurents, rather than directly on the memoir. It follows the same structure as the stage show, focusing on Rose Hovick's relentless push to make her daughters stars, culminating in Gypsy's rise to fame. However, because it was a Hollywood film, it softened some of the grittier aspects of Gypsy's story. So, which version did we prefer? Have a listen to find out!In this ep, the Margos discuss:A look at the career of Gypsy Rose Lee The different Broadway productions over the yearsThe cast includes Rosalind Russell (Rose Hovick,) Natalie Wood (Louise Hovick/Gypsy Rose Lee,) Karl Malden (Herbie Sommers,) Paul Wallace (Tulsa,) Ann Jillian (Dainty June,) Morgan Brittany (Baby June,) Parley Bear (Mr. Kringelein,) Harry Shannon (Grandpa,) Betty Bruce (Tessie Tura,) Faith Dane (Mazeppa,) Roxanne Arlen (Electra,) and Jean Willes as Betty Cratchitt.

"MARY BETH HUGHES - CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH" - 3/03/2025 For those of you who don't know the charms of MARY BETH HUGHES, when she was under contract at MGM, she was dubbed "the poor man's LANA TURNER." It was a rather unfair assessment since MGM gave Lana all the plum roles, and Mary Beth got her hand-me-downs. But still, Mary Beth had great comic chops, and no one played bitchy, hard-boiled blondes as well as she. Despite her beauty and talent, she never managed to get out of B-pictures. She did have small parts in great films like The Women (1939) and The Ox-Bow Incident (1942). She played the good girl as often as she played the bad girl, but when she played bad....you were in for a treat. Her pouty lips, snappy dialogue, and petulant attitude lit up many a lackluster production. This week, we celebrate her as our Star of the Month.

Cherry, baby! We are here with two-time Tony-winner and three-time Emmy-winner Cherry Jones. You Might Know Her From The Handmaid's Tale, 24, Transparent, Succession, The West Wing, The Village, The Eyes of Tammy Faye, and her numerous theatre credits including The Heiress, Doubt, Mrs. Warren's Profession, and The Glass Menagerie. Cherry talked to us about playing the real life Eileen Myles on Transparent, grounding the violence on 24, whether or not she'll appear in the final season of The Handmaid's Tale, and she shares with us an actor's secret: her “moment before” from the Broadway production of Doubt. Plus, we got the scoop on going toe to toe with Brian Cox on Succession, whether or not she'd ever play Madame/Mama Rose in Gypsy, and trailblazing as a queer person in entertainment when she won her Tonys.

EPISODE 66 - “WHEN CLASSIC FILM'S SUPPORTING ACTORS STEAL THE SHOW” - 12/16/2024 There is nothing quite like watching a film when suddenly a supporting character comes in and walks away with the film. (Think THELMA RITTER, S.Z. SAKALL, or GALE SONDERGAARD in almost every one of their films!) This week we are focusing on some of our favorite supporting charters who come in and snatch that scene right about from under the big stars. From JOANNA BARNES' Gloria Upson declaring, “It was just ghastly!” in “Auntie Mame” to the impassioned monologue about love that BEAH RICHARDS delivers to SPENCER TRACY in “Guess Who's Coming To Dinner,” we take a fun look at these powerful performances that we're still talking about today.

คอลัมน์ “สดแต่เช้า”ปีที่4 (198) ยิ่งกว่าเสน่ห์และความงดงาม! “เสน่ห์เป็นของหลอกลวง และความงามก็ไม่จีรัง แต่สตรีที่ยำเกรงพระยาห์เวห์ สมควรได้รับคำสรรเสริญ” ~สุภาษิต 31:30 THSV11 “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” ~Proverbs 31:30 NIV มีคำกล่าวว่า “ สตรีแห่งความเชื่อคือผู้หญิงที่เต็มเปี่ยมด้วยพลัง!” (A woman of faith is a woman of power.) ผู้หญิงโดยเฉพาะอย่างยิ่งสตรีที่แต่งงานแล้วและมีความเชื่อจริงแท้ในพระเจ้า จะเป็นสตรี ซึ่งเปี่ยมด้วยพลังที่เกิดมาจากความยำเกรงพระเจ้าอาจารย์เปโตรกำชับบรรดาสตรีผู้ที่เป็นภรรยาให้แสดงความยำเกรงพระเจ้า ดังนี้“ส่วนพวกท่านที่เป็นภรรยาก็เช่นกัน 1.จงยอมเชื่อฟังสามีของตน เพื่อว่า 1).แม้สามีบางคนไม่เชื่อพระวจนะ(ของพระเจ้า) 2).แต่ความประพฤติของภรรยาก็อาจจะจูงใจ(ชนะใจ)พวกเขาให้เชื่อได้ โดยไม่ต้อง(เอ่ยปาก)พูดเลยสักคำเดียว คือ เมื่อพวกเขาได้เห็นความประพฤติ ก.ที่นอบน้อม(ยำเกรงพระเจ้า)และ ข.ที่บริสุทธิ์ (ในชีวิต)ของพวกท่าน 2.อย่าประดับตัว(งามจากการตกแต่ง)แต่ภายนอก ด้วย 1).การถักผม 2).การสวมใส่เครื่องทอง หรือ 3).การนุ่งห่มเสื้อผ้า(สวยงาม)แต่3.จงประดับ(ให้ออกมาจากตัวตนภายใน) 1).ด้วยบุคลิกที่ซ่อนอยู่ในใจ 2).ด้วยเครื่องประดับ(ความงาม)ซึ่งไม่รู้เสื่อมสลาย คือด้วย ก.จิตใจที่สุภาพอ่อนโยนและ ข.จิตใจที่สงบ(เยือกเย็น) ซึ่งเป็น(จิตใจ)สิ่งล้ำค่ายิ่งนักในสายพระเนตรพระเจ้า“ โดยท่านอาจารย์เปโตรให้เหตุผลว่า ”เพราะว่า(นี่เป็นแนวทางที่)บรรดาสตรี 1.ผู้บริสุทธิ์ใน(อดีต)สมัยก่อนนั้น 2.ผู้ซึ่งหวัง(ใจ)ในพระเจ้า ก็(เคย)ได้ประดับกาย(ให้ตนเองงดงาม)โดยยอมเชื่อฟังสามีของตน เช่นนางซาราห์ 1).เชื่อฟังอับราฮัมและ 2).เรียกท่านว่านาย ถ้าท่านทั้งหลาย ก.ประพฤติดี(ทำสิ่งที่ถูกต้อง) และ ข.ไม่มีความหวาดกลัว(หวาดหวั่น)สิ่งร้ายอันใด พวกท่านก็เป็นบุตรหลานของนาง” (1 เปโตร 3:1-6 THSV11) มีคำกล่าวไว้อย่างน่าฟังว่า “เสื้อผ้าอาภรณ์ทำให้ผู้หญิงสวยกิริยามารยาททำให้ผู้หญิงงามความสามารถทำให้ผู้หญิงได้รับการยอมรับความรู้และสติปัญญาทำให้ผู้หญิงจะได้รับการนับถือบุคลิกที่ดีและความอ่อนหวานทำให้ผู้หญิงมีเสน่ห์ความดีงามของจิตใจทำให้ผู้หญิงนั้นมีคุณค่าความเข้มแข็งกล้าหาญทำให้ผู้หญิงได้รับเกียรติความรักความเมตตาทำให้ผู้หญิงได้รับการเทิดทูนความยำเกรงพระยาห์เวห์ ทำให้ผู้หญิงนั้นได้รับคำสรรเสริญ!” พี่น้องที่รัก ผู้หญิงทุกคนควรจะมีความสุขและถ้าผู้หญิงมีความสุขในการดำเนินชีวิตเธอจะเป็นผู้หญิงที่สวยงามในสายตาของคนรอบข้างเหมือนดังที่ Rosalind Russell กล่าวว่า“ การมีความสุขในการใช้ชีวิต คือเครื่องสำอางที่ดีที่สุดในชีวิตของผู้หญิง!“ (Taking joy in living is a woman's best cosmetic.) ดังนั้นหากท่านเป็นผู้หญิง ก็1.จงอย่าลังเลที่จะเป็นผู้หญิงที่ทรงพลัง และ2.จงเป็นผู้หญิงที่แข็งแกร่ง ที่ยืนหยัด เพื่อตัวเองและเพื่อผู้อื่น เหมือนดังคำกล่าวที่ว่า “ ผู้หญิงที่เข้มแข็งยืนหยัดเพื่อตัวเธอเอง ผู้หญิงที่เข้มแข็งกว่ายืนหยัดเพื่อทุกๆคน!” (A strong woman stands up for herself. A stronger woman stands up for everybody else.) – Unknown ขอให้วันนี้ เราจะมาเป็นผู้หญิงหรือสตรีของพระเจ้าที่1.เข้มแข็ง และ2.เชื่อฟังปฏิบัติตามคำสอนและคำบัญชาตามที่ปรากฏในพระวจนะของพระเจ้า(ไม่ว่าเราจะชอบหรือไม่ชอบก็ตาม) เพื่อเราจะเป็นผู้หญิงที่ยำเกรงพระเจ้า เหนือ 1).เสน่ห์และ 2).ความสวยงามของสตรีในโลกนี้ แต่จะมีความงดงามอย่างแท้จริงในสายพระเนตรของพระเจ้า ขอให้ผู้ชายทุกคนช่วยและทำให้ผู้หญิงที่ตนเองรักเป็นผู้หญิงที่ยำเกรงพระเจ้า ที่งดงามยิ่งกว่าความมีเสน่ห์และความสวยของผู้หญิงอื่นๆ โดยทั่วไป … จะดีไหมครับ?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ธงชัย ประดับชนานุรัตน์15ตุลาคม 2024 #YoutubeCJCONNECT #thongchaibsc#คริสตจักรแห่งความรัก #churchoflove #ShareTheLoveForward #ChurchOfJoy #คริสตจักรแห่งความสุข #NimitmaiChristianChurch #คริสตจักรนิมิตใหม่ #ฮักกัยประเทศไทย #อัลฟ่า #หนึ่งล้านความดี

Originally uploaded August 27, re-edited September 22nd. Chris Holman welcomes back Lorri Rishar, CEO who is joined this time around by Aaron Bodus, lead communications strategist, EDGE Partnerships, Lansing, Marquette and Chicago. Lorri, you've added to your team again, how is EDGE finding and attracting the talent you need? Aaron, we hear you've come from a journalism background, tell us more about your career path? So, Lead Communications Strategist, tell us about that role? Lorri, will this position collaborate across your locations or focus on Lansing? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCqNX… » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ With more details, EDGE shared this release: EDGE bolsters communications team with addition of Aaron Bodus LANSING Mich. — The EDGE Partnerships family just got a little bigger with the recent addition of Aaron Bodus. EDGE is an award-winning, full-service agency headquartered in downtown Lansing that produces dynamic public relations and marketing solutions for its portfolio of clients. Bodus joins the team to further the agency's legacy of outstanding outcomes as a lead communications strategist. A fresh face in the field of public relations, Bodus honed his written communications skills in the (occasionally) rough and tumble realm of local journalism, serving as an editor at daily newspapers in Michigan and California. His writing earned awards from press associations in both states. Most recently, Bodus served as the managing editor of The Argus-Press in Owosso for nearly two years. During the 2023 Michigan Press Association awards cycle, he was recognized for outstanding column and feature writing, as well as excellence in photography and page design. “I am really excited for the opportunity to contribute to EDGE's mission and culture,” said Bodus. “There's an undeniable energy here that I think is evident in the work the agency does. They're bottling lightning, and it will be fun to be part of the delivery system.” A 2015 graduate of the University of Michigan, with a Bachelor of Arts in sport management, Bodus is keeping a stiff upper lip about joining an office full of Spartans. Outside of work, Bodus is an avid tennis player and a dedicated film buff. Some of his favorite movies include “Election” (1999), starring Matthew Broderick and Reese Witherspoon and “His Girl Friday” (1941), with Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell. EDGE leadership has expressed enthusiasm with Bodus coming on board. “Adding Aaron to our team of content creators will deliver more excellent results for our clients,” said Lorri Rishar, EDGE CEO.

This Saturday's "Saturday Matinee" on Vintage Classic Radio begins with “The Jack Benny Show,” celebrating “Jack's 10th Anniversary Show.” Originally aired on May 4, 1941, the episode revels in a decade of laughs with Jack Benny at the helm, featuring regulars Mary Livingstone, Phil Harris, Dennis Day, Rochester, and Don Wilson, who all play a part in commemorating this milestone with their usual blend of comedy and music. Following this, we move to “The Screen Director's Playhouse” with the episode titled “Hired Wife,” which first graced the airwaves on February 6, 1949. This engaging story captures the essence of romantic comedy where a secretary, portrayed by Rosalind Russell, marries her boss, played by Fred MacMurray, as part of a business deal, only to face the complications of unanticipated romance. The cast includes Robert Montgomery, who not only stars but also directs, bringing a unique depth to the production. Concluding the matinee, “The Railroad Hour” presents the musical delight “Two Hearts in Three-Quarter Time,” from its broadcast on February 26, 1951. Gordon MacRae and Jane Powell lend their vocal talents to this charming story set to the rhythm of waltzing beats, depicting a tale of love and whimsy that transcends typical musical boundaries. This episode is a showcase of the lighter, more melodic side of radio, celebrating the union of story and song in a captivating manner.

On this week's "Saturday Matinee" on Vintage Classic Radio, we're delighted to bring you a lineup of timeless classics that promise laughter, drama, and toe-tapping music. We kick off with "The Phil Harris - Alice Faye Show," in an episode titled "Will Benny Renew Phil's Contract," originally broadcasted on March 9, 1947. In this humorous episode, Phil Harris and Alice Faye navigate the uncertainties of show business, with Phil worrying whether his contract will be renewed by the none other than Jack Benny. The episode features the comedic timing and musical talents of Phil Harris, Alice Faye, and a supporting cast that includes Elliott Lewis, Walter Tetley, and Robert North, with an appearance by Jack Benny himself, adding to the show's charm and wit. Following that, we dive into the world of education and fashion with "Our Miss Brooks" in the episode "The Hair-Do," which aired on March 6, 1949. The episode centers around Connie Brooks, portrayed by the incomparable Eve Arden, as she navigates the trials and tribulations of high school life, this time focusing on a disastrous hairdo. The episode features key performances by Gale Gordon as the blustery Principal Osgood Conklin, Richard Crenna as the earnest student Walter Denton, and Jane Morgan as Mrs. Davis, with Jeff Chandler playing the handsome Mr. Boynton, adding layers of comedy and romance to the mix. Next, we take a sentimental journey to "The Colgate Hour Theater of Romance" with the episode "My Sister Eileen," broadcasted on August 7, 1945. This delightful narrative transports listeners to the heartwarming and often comedic adventures of two sisters seeking their fortunes in New York City. The episode showcases the talents of Rosalind Russell in a lead role, supported by a cast that brings to life the charm and challenges of city living and sibling dynamics. Lastly, we conclude with a musical journey led by the "Benny Goodman Orchestra" in the "Hooray for Hollywood" radio program, originally aired in 1936. This episode offers listeners a chance to swing and sway to the timeless tunes of the King of Swing, Benny Goodman, and his orchestra. The program features a selection of Hollywood-inspired melodies that capture the glitz and glamour of the golden age of cinema, with Goodman's clarinet leading the charge, supported by his ensemble of talented musicians. This Saturday's "Saturday Matinee" offers a rich tapestry of entertainment, from the comedic exploits of Phil Harris and Alice Faye to the educational mishaps of Connie Brooks, the heartfelt adventures of two sisters in New York, and the irresistible rhythms of Benny Goodman's orchestra. Join us for a journey through laughter, drama, and melody that celebrates the golden era of radio.
EPISODE 23 - “I Coulda Been a Contender: Classic Casting That Almost Happened” - 02/19/2024 It is well documented that the film “Gone With The Wind” started filming before an actress was cast in the lead role of Scarlett O'Hara. Producer DAVID O. SELZNICK made a spectacle out of who would win the coveted role. It became a national obsession. He considered everyone from TALLULAH BANKHEAD to BETTE DAVIS to LUCILLE BALL. He eventually narrowed the field to three finalists: PAULETTE GODDARD, JOAN BENNETT, and JEAN ARTHUR. But in the eleventh hour, a new contender, an unknown Brit named VIVIEN LEIGH, swept in and won the role. Listen as we discuss, debate, and guffaw over other casting choices that almost happened in some of your favorite film classics.

What happens when Falk gets stuck in a screwball comedy? Can Falk weed out the humans from the androids? Do androids dream of His Girl Friday? Listen to find out!Do Androids Dream of His Girl Friday? , episode 98 of This Gun in My Hand, was manufactured not by the Tyrell Corporation but by Rob Northrup, using dialogue from the 1940 public domain film His Girl Friday, which was adapted from the 1928 public domain play The Front Page. The part of Walter Burns was played by Cary Grant, with Rosalind Russell as Hildy Johnson and Ralph Bellamy as Bruce Baldwin.

Dialogue in this episode was taken from His Girl Friday. (Link below.) It's excellent but has (CONTENT WARNING) the kind of racism and sexism you might expect in a 1940 film. There's also a one hour Lux Radio Theater adaptation starring Fred MacMurray and Claudette Colbert; a Screen Guild Theater radio adaptation starring Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell squeezed down into a half hour; and an even more offensive, grittier 1970 film of The Front Page starring Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon. And there's a 1931 film version of The Front Page which I have yet to watch.https://archive.org/details/his_girl_fridayCredits:The opening music clip was from The Sun Sets at Dawn (1950), with transitional music from His Girl Friday (1940) and the closing music was from Killer Bait (1949), all films in the public domain.

Attention, all you fast-talkin', wisecrackin' cinephiles, 'cause Never Did It's warping back to 1940, the year screwball met satire and Cary Grant met a tiny mustache. Jake's tossed Brad into the whirlwind of overlapping dialogue and rapid-fire romance that is "His Girl Friday," while Brad's sent Jake on a goose chase for Chaplin's timeless, toe-tapping takedown of tyranny in "The Great Dictator." First up, Brad's wrangling with Rosalind Russell's Hildy Johnson, a reporter sharper than a stiletto and quicker than a quip. Get ready for a newsroom brawl of epic proportions as Hildy tries to break free from her ex-husband Walter (Cary Grant, smooth as ever) and his journalistic clutches. Think witty repartee, slapstick hijinks, and enough deadlines to make your head spin. Brad might even confess his secret soft spot for the 1974 remake, "The Front Page," and spark a friendly debate about cinematic legacy! Meanwhile, Jake's navigating the Chaplinverse! He's donned the oversized pants and tiny hat of Adenoid Hynkel, the bumbling would-be Hitler with a penchant for pratfalls. Prepare for hilarious political satire, poignant social commentary, and enough double takes to give your neck a workout. Can Hynkel conquer the inflatable globe? Will Hildy make it to the altar? Tune in, but remember that back in 1940, the laughs were just as sharp as the suits, and the dictators were just as small as their hats. So polish your best one-liners, dust off your bowler hats, and get ready for a comedic collision of the highest order. Hit play and let the good times roll (or topple)! Other movies dicussed in this episode: To Catch a Thief (1955), Charade (1963), The Front Page (1974), All the President's Men (1976), Buddy Buddy (1981), The Iron Lady (2011), Spotlight (2015), Ricky and the Flash (2015), The Post (2017), Let Them All Talk (2020).

How can we learn from human stories of survival to understand our own capacity to rise again?Rosalind Russell is a journalist & editor whose reporting included the fall of the Taliban in Afghanistan, the war in Iraq & Myanmar's Saffron Revolution. She's the author of Burma's Spring & The End of Where We Begin which won the 2021 Moore Prize for excellence in human rights writing.The End of Where We Begin is about three, young South Sudanese refugees, Veronica, Daniel and Lilian. They are from a young country ripped apart by war. Each has had a different experience and come from different sides of the ethnically-fuelled conflict. But their lives collide in a refugee camp in Uganda, and with the help of the community they build there, and rudimentary counselling, they start to carve out new futures for themselves.Ros gives us a better understanding of people who are part of the global refugee and migration crisis- their needs, desires and motivations as human beings, but also gives us an insight into the strength and resilience within ourselves, the power of the human spirit.She shows us the power of human beings to withstand horrifying circumstances, and with the right support, to be able to rise again.

Auntie Mame: An Irreverent Escapade is a 1955 novel by American author Patrick Dennis chronicling the madcap adventures of a boy, Patrick, growing up as the ward of his Aunt Mame Dennis, the sister of his dead father. The book is often described as having been inspired by Dennis' real-life eccentric aunt, Marion Tanner, whose life and outlook mirrored those of Mame, but Dennis denied the connection. The novel was a runaway bestseller, setting records on the New York Times bestseller list, with more than 2 million copies in print during its initial publication. It became the basis of a stage play, a film, a stage musical, and a film musical. In 1958, Dennis wrote a sequel titled Around the World with Auntie Mame. Auntie Mame is a 1958 American Technirama Technicolor comedy film based on the 1955 novel of the same name by Edward Everett Tanner III (under the pseudonym Patrick Dennis) and its 1956 theatrical adaptation by Jerome Lawrence and Robert Edwin Lee. This film version stars Rosalind Russell and was directed by Morton DaCosta. It is not to be confused with a musical version of the same story that appeared on Broadway in 1966 and was later made into a 1974 film, Mame, starring Lucille Ball as the title character.

[ For full episode catalogue please subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BestActress ] The year is 1959 and the nominees are: 1. Susan Hayward - I Want to Live! 2. Deborah Kerr - Separate Tables 3. Shirley MacLaine - Some Came Running 4. Rosalind Russell - Auntie Mama 5. Elizabeth Taylor - Cat on a Hot Tin Roof - In 1959 Susan Hayward won the Oscar for her portrayal of alleged murder accomplice Barbara Graham and her eventual execution in a gas chamber. Hayward was known for delivering top shelf performances dealing with dark subject matter and she does not disappoint in, I Want to Live! Baby Shirley MacLaine received her first Oscar nomination for Some Came Running playing an uneducated naive girl from Chicago who falls in love with Frank Sinatra. Deborah Kerr gave a brief but memorable performance in Separate Tables, one of two films this year that had to be adjusted for the Hollywood Production code as to avoid discussing topics of homosexuality (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof being the second). Rosalind Russell delivers an amazing performance as the eccentric aunt (perhaps a precursor to Travels with my Aunt with Maggie Smith) known for her quirky lifestyle and outgoing personality. Finally, Elizabeth Taylor plays Paul Newman's wife desperately trying to get him to love her again (even physically (same girl)) in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Who do you think should have won? Join host Kyle Brownrigg with guest host Joe Arsenal as they discuss.
Big screen tough guy Sheldon Leonard went from cutting a menacing figure in To Have and Have Not and It's a Wonderful Life to producing classic TV sitcoms like The Andy Griffith Show and The Dick Van Dyke Show. In three old time radio thrillers, he'll show off his acting chops, first as a hired killer who's looking for a friend in "Feast of the Furies" (originally aired on CBS on July 11, 1946). We'll also hear him co-starring with Rosalind Russell in "When the Bough Breaks" (originally aired on CBS on May 3, 1951) and Jack Benny in "The Face is Familiar" (originally aired on CBS on January 18, 1954). Plus he shows off his lighter side as a proud papa of a safecracker in "Butch Minds the Baby" from The Damon Runyon Theatre.
Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Noopy Rodrigues, daughter of comedian and singer Rose Marie and trumpeter Bobby Guy. Talking to Noopy was a fun and lively experience because the thing that became clear from the word go was how many connections we had that we didn't even know about. From Broadway theaters our mom's performed in, being brought out on stage by famous entertainers when we were likely not even in Kindergarten, strong single mothers who raised their families after devastating losses, growing up in the San Fernando Valley and more. Noopy also somehow connected the dots to other guests – as she was a segment producer on the Tomorrow show with Tom Snyder, whose daughter Ann Marie Snyder was prior guest as well as how her mother saved all sorts of amazing things including the very recordings that make up the new CD Rose Marie Sings: The Complete Mercury Recordings & More. If that sounds amazingly familiar to what host Josh Mills is working on as well, don't worry, we made that connection already. Along the way we also talk Rosalind Russell, Phil Silvers, Morey Amsterdam, Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis and some guy named Popcorn who really will blow your mind. Take a listen to our conversation with Noopy Rodrigues on this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story.

Before she was directing movies about iconic figures (becoming something of an icon herself in the process) Mary Harron was a journalist. And before that, she was inspired by characters like Rosalind Russell's Hildy Johnson in HIS GIRL FRIDAY -- a woman who is valued for her incomparable skill and undeniable smarts, who can't quite seem to leave her complicated profession behind for what society deems a more "respectable" life. Mary's new movie is DALíLAND, in theaters and on demand now.Then Jordan's got one quick thing about the trailer for the new Luca Guadagnino movie, CHALLENGERS.***With Jordan Crucchiola and Mary Harron

Virginia Christie", Mrs. Olson" in the classic Folgers Coffee TV ad campaign & real wife of Fritz Feld ("POP!") played the mother of the 19 year old woman with a "low IQ" (Autism?) mind of a child played by June Harding. A character who's still playing with dolls.

Auntie Mame was a big hit for both star Rosalind Russell and Warner Brothers in 1958, winning best picture at the Golden Globes and getting nominated for six Oscars - in fact, the character's signature line "life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death!" was one of the most-quoted for decades...but for some reason, this winning comedy has fallen out of the public eye. Martini Giant thinks it deserves a fresh look, however, as in many ways, it's more radical and boundary-pushing than many films today!

Lurene Tuttle was the "first lady of radio" and one of the most-heard women in America during the 1940s and 50s. No matter where you turned your dial, you'd probably hear her on the air. She was Sam Spade's secretary, the Great Gildersleeve's niece, and the mom of Red Skelton's "mean widdle kid" Junior, just to mention a few. We'll hear her in a pair of radio thrillers - first as a woman held hostage by a gunman waiting to kill her husband in "The Tip" (originally aired on CBS on July 6, 1954). Then, she co-stars with Rosalind Russell in "The Sisters," a dark tale of sibling rivalry (originally aired on CBS on December 9, 1948).
