And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Great story about how they met. Paraphrasing here. He saw her in a play and yelled from the mezzanine to her that he wanted to meet her. The interviewer asked her if it was love at first sight. She replied, "He yelled like my mother and looked like my father, what wasn't to love?"
No one over 50 wouldn't know the answer, so everyone is "dating themselves." (I don't date myself. I'm happily married.)
The younger crowd may not know. The simple fact is that only a small percentage of famous actors that everyone knew at the time will be recognized by those born 40 years later. Fame truly is fleeting.
Bear well in mind that a lot of people in the 1960s, including Hollywood hair dressers, were on drugs. Calling this an LSD mistake would not be far-fetched.

Every picture I've seen of the two of them together she's laughing out loud.
DeleteI'd say they had a wonderful marriage.
"Are you trying to seduce me, Mrs. Robinson?"

Gotta say. I do not find her attractive enough to screw up what I had going with Katharine Ross.
ReplyDeleteBenjamin had nothing going with Katharine Ross when her mom cut that off at the pass. ;)
DeleteI know that she's not her, but I was going to say, Lady Bird Johnson.
ReplyDeleteBancroft. For the time that hair is okay.
ReplyDeletewhat's up with the hair? imagine all she had on was those earrings and that hairstyle ...
