A PEEK AT TOMORROW...

Tomorrow we look at a largely overlooked film that was not well received by the public upon it's release, but is regarded as a screen gem today! On Thursday, we return to "Friday Movie Suggestion Night".

Have a Great Wednesday!

Since my cinema sense has failed me here, I suppose I'll have to wait until tomorrow!

Patti: Yes, and I am so surprised how little the media does to reveal what an intelligent person she was. Certainly not the breathy, ditz Hollywood painted of her. Her death is a tremendous loss at such a young age. Shame on the FBI for concealing with their black markers her "file" (or for even having a file on her). They owe us the truth as does the Los Angeles Police Department about the circumstances of her death.

Seamus: Hey, I'm glad I piqued your interest. It will be worth the wait!

Dianne: Her story as I've read up on Marilyn is a human one.

Utenzi: Great! I think you'll find it all fascinating!!

Maria: Yes. I learned for example that Dr. Engleberg gave her a sedative by injection that day and then didn't tell her psychiatrist Dr. Greenson, who missed key clues. He was never the same after her death. Awful. I have a family friend who heard audio tapes of how she really spoke and it was NOTHING like those breathy movie roles. A young woman of history now.
