My dad told me today that when he was thirteen he was riding his skateboard on 78th street in NYC when he stopped and coming out of an antique shop was Edward G Robinson. He said, “It’s the boss!” Edward G with two blondes on his side yelled back, “ Don’t you forget it!”

What a fascinating docuseries. #Mortician is insane, wild, jaw-dropping! Must See
Dinah Shore and Jack Smith combine singing talents each Monday, Wednesday and Friday on the CBS Radio "Jack Smith-Dinah Shore-Ginny Sims Show." Here, they examine pictures sent them by one of the fans of their program, now in its sixth season. [photo dated 3/19/52]
I watched a 3-part docuseries last night on MAX called The Mortician, it's one of the most disturbing funeral home scandals I’ve ever seen. Nothing but cold, calculated horror behind closed doors. Of course, I didn't sleep a wink after watching it...Has anyone else watched it?
GASP! My favorite film, Gloria will be on the big screen!!!! Bless you, @FilmForumNYC. I may have to take the three hour drive in to see it!
