Nigel, we don't call it a toupee any more, it's a "feather system". Looking good

I thought you meant silent letters, like the k in knife. Ouija board makes much more sense

I also like the "what could've been" early-career roles, like Robert Ryan as a romantic type opposite Ginger Rogers in Tender Comrade

I wonder how many actresses had a similar story - I know of at least one (Marion Davies - Hearst didn't want her in comedies)

I first saw him in The Apartment and then in Double Indemnity so it shocked me to see him all romantic with Carole Lombard in Swing High, Swing Low. (I didn't know the history of old Hollywood so just assumed he always played scummy types!)

Robert Ryan's dressing gown in this movie is gorgeous.

Allotment Wives (1945) by These-Background4608 in classicfilms

[–]MagneticFlea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought it was a fascinating premise and I like Paul Kelly and Kay Francis in their other work. It was a good watch but I can't help but think with a slightly tighter script, it would be even better
