[zanetierney]

i love this movie......always will love jeanne crain after seeing "pinky" years and years ago. this is a really good one!

[Pottermedia]

Sounds like an awesome movie and if TOQ says watch, we're gonna watch. That's the law : )

[whardcastle]

I set the TiVo to record this even before your video. Now I'm excited to curl up with it. You should TOTALLY host TCM! Is it time for a Facebook campaign?

[paulinglenn]

I absolutely agree!  Steve Hayes should be a regular on TCM!

[alexanderBoldt]

Thelma Ritter's not even in the opening credits! What's up with that?

Awesome review!

[randalllujan]

Steve Hayes should really be on TCM with his expertise. Fabulous!

Good host and valid informative comments. Nice movies. A win, win, win situation.

This movie kinda ruined Brahms Piano Concerto #2 for me, because every time the music starts I hear "Why did George go-o-o fishing?" I love Mankiewicz's little tribute to his hometown (and mine) Wilkes-Barre, PA. It's mentioned here when Ann Southern and her boss are listening to their radio program in a letter from a viewer. (W-B more famously mentioned in "All About Eve"---"You've got that backwards, even for Wilkes-Barre!") Steve, time to review "The Mating Season" with Thelma & Gene Tierney!

I love the scene in Darnell's mother's house ( more than on the wrong side of the tracks ....almost on top of them ) each time the train goes by the house shakes, they have to stop talking and the fridge door swings open .

My fave line ? When Paul Douglas comes to pick her up her sister says "she's upstairs pounding her brains out with a powder puff " Just thinking of that line still makes me laugh

The Simpsons did an episode based on this movie. The "Three Wives" were Homer, Reverend Lovejoy and Apu. The Addie character was Moe. Great episode.

I'm so glad you decided to review this movie, Steve. It doesn't really get the recognition it deserves. The three leading ladies are great, as are their male costars. Celeste Holm is so mysterious as the voice of Addie.

Johnny, you're looking good in that blue shirt!

This is a gossipy movie at it's best.....times and manners may have changed a little but we all know women like those three wives....one of my all time favorites!!!!

[indusdolphin]

This is one of my favorite films, we watched it in my "audio and film criticism" class, and the concept of the acousmetre.

[senoritamercedes]

[jojococoa]
