“I’m allergic to fabric softener. I majored in comparative literature at Brown. I hate anchovies. And I think I’d miss you even if we never met.” - Nick Mercer (played by Dermot Mulroney)
Oh. My. God.
I think that’s one of the most romantic things I’ve heard in the longest time. In fact, this movie has a […]

Mr. Nathan Detroit. Whatta guy!
Featuring the song “Luck Be A Lady” (sung in the film by Marlon Brando - NOT Sinatra, as he had done in his stage performances ever afterward). Apparantly, Ol’ Blue Eyes wanted this song/character from the get-go… Wonder why!?

Alright, if you haven’t seen this movie yet, get thee to Netflix or your local video store and rent it. Kevin Spacey is an absolutely amazing actor, and proves himself as such in “Beyond The Sea: The Bobby Darin Story”.
You know, I’m always wary when a movie comes out with a modern-day actor playing the […]

Okay, so I’m starting Bing Crosby week a day early today. (From now on, Crooner Weeks will start on Mondays.)
Bing sings “Moonlight Becomes You” in the film “Road To Morocco“, featuring Bob Hope, Dorothy Lamour, and Anthony Quinn.
One reviewer says:
“Road to Morocco, number three in the series of breezy comedies teaming Bing Crosby and Bob […]

This song reminds me of two movies, both kind of related in a “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon” sort of way…The movie The Green Mile (if you haven’t seen it, just click that link go buy it now, because you’re going to love this flick) when John Coffey gets his last request before execution and […]

Lyrics (less the buh-bu-bo-bom’s and scatting)
“I’ll Capture Your Heart”
[FRED:] Here she comes, down the street
[BING:] My, oh my, ain’t she sweet?
[FRED:] Why, here comes my hot toddy
[BING:] Over my dead body
[BING:] I’ll capture her heart singing
[FRED:] Just wait until she gets a load […]

I know, the title of the film is “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” but dammit Jane Russell’s a knockout and makes all us brunette babies envious in this clip from the film. She wasn’t “sweet” looking like Marilyn, and her voice is deeper as well. I’m loving her outfit though, and the hair and makeup are quite […]

Okay, so it’s finally here. I’ve heard different people with different opinions on this sort of thing, but I’m sorry, I’m so mad for Dino that I just had to pre-order this from DeanMartin.Com! Of course, the one I bought has a bonus DVD in it, with home videos and interviews with the others on […]

For more than 20 years, Bing Crosby was part owner (15%) of the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Bing, his second wife and younger children did TV commercials for Minute Maid orange juice, […]
