I understand (I looked it up) that Bobby Hackett did the trumpet on this recording and Axel Stordahl the arranging. It's outstanding.

@druxy1 She gave a quick glance at the top of the card, which was sticking out of the envelope. It was fast, but she looked.

Durward Kirby (the real spelling) was a nice-looking announcer with a great voice. I think he was Garry Moore's sidekick for a long time.

He had the most beautiful smile. It just lights up his face.

Is that Randolph Scott? Boy, he was pretty in those days!

What a workout! I'd love to dance with this guy.

@mcgiver02 I would think, as he said, that you've got to have someone to talk to. He used to refer to Forwood as "family." He never would satisfy people's curiosity about the relationship. That just wasn't him.

About 50 million girls agreed with you ... he had to go to court to keep a girls' school from being built to overlook his house and garden in Buckinghamshire. He finally moved to France to get some privacy.

He "really" played the piano, but the music you hear is by Jorge Bolet. Bogarde studied for months to get the piano fingering right. He hated this movie and said it was terrible dialogue. He was crazy about Capucine, however, and said he asked her to marry him, but "she kissed me and said, gen...

I have the vinyl record of "Song Without End," and it's a treasure. Now I have the tape of the movie and it's another treasure. The "La Campanella" alone is worth the price.

Thanks so much for posting this video. It's beautiful and inspiring, and helps me meditate on the Divine Mercy.

This is the one I listen to most. I've loved Sinatra since 1943, and his early stuff was great, but this is magnificent.

Thank you thank you thank you!

Lovely meditations and beautiful music. Thank you.

Beautifully crafted scene ... the writer was Sidney Sheldon and he won the Oscar for writing this picture.

Amitabh's still got it ... doesn't matter how old he is. One beautiful guy.

Continuous loop narration?

I recall Franz Werfel's book, "The Song of Bernadette," which brought her to the attention of many in the world who had not heard of her. He was a Jew who wrote the book in fulfillment of a promise to Our Lady. In it was the inscription, "To those who believe, no explanation is necessary; to th...

I remember telling the cops about a burglary in our house in Tokyo. I didn't know the word for "robber" ... ("dorobo") .. so I told them a "bad man" had come to our house while we were out and stolen our things. A friend said, "They must have thought you led a sheltered life." (They did.)

I think they're great. I don't see anything sinister about this performance at all. They like playing and they do it beautifully. Good for them.

Many people wonder why Jeanne d'Arc was sent by God to rescue France from the British. She did as her voices told her, and was burned by the French bishop Cauchon (a tool of the English). It's a tragedy only in that her martyrdom was so brutal. She herself didn't find it a tragedy but simple o...

I was there for this Rigoletto. Fantastic.

Nice performance. Good work. I hope nobody discourages him; he could go on to be a rock star.

@kiren941 I'll be praying for you, Kiren. Aloha and God bless.

A perfect performance of this beautiful aria. No one does it like RT.

They'll get over their use of the word "like" in time. We all have our idiosyncrasies when we're teens. Their sincerity is much more important than their vocabulary.

I lived in his town in Surrey in 1962. He was always breaking up the neighbors with his antics. Everyone loved him.

Notice the pianist, Dalies Frantz. He was called "the foremost American-born concert pianist of the 20th century." He taught many of the great concert pianists of the following years after he had to stop touring because of illness.

Unthinkingly cruel father. Doesn't have a clue about what's funny and what's just plain mean. I've met people like him and they're usually ignorant of what they're doing. Probably raised badly himself.

Until the church makes its own judgment of the Medjugorje apparitions, all are free to go there and pray. Millions have, including thousands of priests and monsignors, and some bishops, though they go incognito so as not to give the impression that they are giving official approval to it. I've ...

I have to agree with Rita about Ezio Pinza. I had a good friend, a baritone, who sang with him in Vegas in "Highlights from South Pacific." He said Pinza would gather gypsy moths in the desert and turn them loose in the showgirls' dressing room just to see them run out half-dressed. He was kno...
