1. My favorite Robert Montgomery picture:

(Sorry I haven't been around the Group for a while. I've just been kinda overwhelmed. By health issues. By family health issues. And by a ton of deaths - three family member/dear friends in less than a month. I'll be back. One of these days.)

4. I'm so sorry.

Deepest sympathy to you and your community of family and friends.

And you are very much missed!

Thank you for stepping up and sharing that classic photo to remind us all of who and what we are.

2. That's a great photo!

I can't believe how nice most people use to dress.
I am such a slob.

Yes, every time I see photos of people on the street or traveling by train or plane in years gone by, I think of what we have lost. I have seen things at the grocery store, on the street, and at public events (Shakespeare birthday celebrations at the Folger Library) that by rights should have blinded me (sample: the men whose jeans FALL OFF as they go about their day). We all need a tutorial in how to dress.

I would love to give off an air of elegance and effortless ease...but I know it takes effort!

3. You made me log in and post for the first time in over two years.

How in the world could I ignore our patron saint,
Robert Montgomery?

Sure does bring back good memories of the olden days in the Classic Film forum.

This one is from Here Comes Mr. Jordan. The other actor is James Gleason.
