I love The Postman Always Rings Twice. Garfield and Turner were fabulous in that...what chemistry they had!
ReplyDeleteHey, reading your smoothie recipe, I wish you lived near me. I have 5 cherry trees!! In a banner fruit year, do you know how many cherries that is? MILLIONS...or so it seems. If you lived near me, I would be happy to give you several gallons every year, then you would always have some available for your smoothies.
I've really enjoy The Hasty Heart. I own it as part of the 5 disc Ronald Reagan Collection. While I don't care for Patricia Neal, I discovered that you don't have to be a Neal to enjoy that film. It's very touching, and Richard Todd was really great in that role.
Have a wonderful Sunday,
Patti
Dawn, thanks for the tip about the THIS GUN FOR HIRE, THE BLUE DAHLIA, and so much more blonde dynamite! I've posted the info on my Facebook page on your behalf! Enjoy the extra hour of rest thanks to Daylight Savings Time being over the nonce! :-)
ReplyDeleteMMmmm. That sounds like a good smoothie. Thanks Dawn.
ReplyDeletePatti, I also loved the film, The Postman Always Rings Twice. I wished that Garfield's part, was played by more of a James Dean, type of actor. I think that, there would have been even better on screen chemistry.
ReplyDeleteWow! I bet when your cherry trees were in full bloom last spring, they were absolutely beautiful. Cherries, are one of my favorite fruits. You bet... I would help you eat them.
I'm really looking forward to seeing the film, The Hasty Heart, for the first time. As far as Patricia Neal,goes. In some movies I thought she was great, others... I could take her or leave her..
Have a great week! :)
