is that Loretta Young? I remember watching her elegant TV show in the 1950's. A different gown every week descending a curving stairway. She was in an old movie I watched last night from the 1930's,"Women in Love." she had class. She also was a rare thing in Hollywood, a practicing Catholic until her death. She was a big financial supporter of the Monastery of Christ in the Desert in New Mexico.
Yes it is - my rich uncle and his family lived near her and they belonged to the same parish - she went to daily Mass if I remember correctly. There are several Catholics in Hollywood who are faithful - one character actress I love, Marianne Muellerleile is active in her parish. I can't recall all the names, but there are several others - including Marky Mark Wahlberg - oh! Hitchcock was too.
....who is Mark Wahlberg ?...oh, I googled: and have seen none of those movies or shows. The last movie I saw was The Full Monte: I brought my elderly neighbor from across the street - she Loved it ! I am sort of out-of-touch, culturally. but I Do remember Loretta Young: as a child I even had one of those stretchy-black belts, plus a cape I fashioned, in homage to her as well to Zorro! both my heros. *sigh* no wonder I am a mess now.

DeleteDidn't he drop the Marky when he added Wahlberg? What?
DeleteI wonder if she ever caught her skirt in the door? Probably not.
