Qué será, será…
Remembering the legendary Doris Day, actress, singer and animal welfare activist on her birthday. Here as Jo Conway in Alfred Hitchcock’s The Man Who Knew Too Much, and her iconic rendition of Qué será, será.

The Birds, one of Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpieces, and probably my favorite, premiered March 28, 1963, in New York City, some 60 years ago today. Loosely based on Daphne du Maurier’s short story, it made an international star of its leading lady, the legendary Tippi Hedren.
Remembering the legendary Joan Crawford on her 120th anniversary. She'd got a magnetic screen presence and a beautiful face sculpted for the silver screen. What is your favorite movie of hers?

Happy birthday to two musical theater greats, who share a birthday today, Stephen Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber. Madonna had the privilege of performing the work of both in the movies Dick Tracy and Evita and at the Oscars.

Happy birthday to Catherine O'Hara and her unforgettable Moira Rose in Schitt's Creek. I first saw this show during the pandemic and subsequent lockdown, and it made it all so more bearable. What’s your favorite quote from this show?

This 2023 marks the 50th anniversary of a timeless romantic classic, The Way We Were. There are two books out chronicling the making of this film, The Way They Were, by Robert Hofler and TWWW, the making of a romantic classic by Tom Santopietro. Have you heard of any of them?
