Peace through superior firepower |
Looks like TCM is playing some of Leila Hyams' movies today. The few people who know of the lovely Ms. Hyams probably know her from Tod Browning's Freaks (airing at 8 pm EST tonight), but she is usually misidentified in this film, being confused with Olga Baclanova. After Freaks comes a favorite comedy of mine- Ruggles of Red Gap, most notable for a comedy turn by one of the greatest actors of the 20th Century, Charles Laughton. Leila Hyams plays Nell Kenner, a "hostess", one might say. Watch the scene where she's teaching Roland Young to play Pretty Baby on the drums. What a charming woman. My kind of gal. Anyway, give the film a look. I never miss it. It doesn't amount to much, but it's a fun film and Laughton is marvelous, as always. 9:15 pm EST tonight. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | ||
