The Quiet Man was always one of my favorites, and certainly Miracle on 34th Street (to name only two). A couple of years back, TCM's Robert Osborne interviewed her. Alas, I wish it could have gone on much longer, but even past 90, she was still full of "piss and vinegar" as the saying goes. A great interview: TCM Interview R.I.P. Signor V. I definitely concur. "Generosity. That was my first mistake." "Experience must be our only guide; reason may mislead us." "Instagram is Twitter for people who can't read."

If you gotta go, that's the way to do it. I forgot about The Parent Trap, which I saw hundreds of times when I was a kid. I believe Brian Keith was her husband in the film. Oh, and Haley Mills (Let's Get Together). TIS "Mankind must put an end to war before war puts an end to mankind.

She was also with Henry Fonda in Spencer's Mountain, which is based on the same Earle Hamner writings as The Waltons (for the movie they moved the mountain to Wyoming).

The dead entries that I've noted are in bold and italicized (as opposed to Geoff's which are in green) Note to all participants - you must check all your own entries to make sure that you've been credited for all your dead picks. If you see that you weren't credited with a dead pick report it here in this thread. As I see it, right now, Sr Vitelli is leading with 10. .

The landscape is barren and soon the snow will fall. It all means that Dead Pool Day is getting close again. Bwaahahhhaaahhhaaaa...... Two months to go before the new year and a new game. It appears we have a core group of players and I assume most will wanna try their luck again next year. We'll probably be seeing many of the same predictions on our lists, so, in an attempt to make it a little more challenging I propose some sort of rule change. How would it be if we gave "points" that reflected the age of the decedent? We could all load our lists with people oevr the age of 90 but what fun is that? What if we gave more "points" for younger deaths? For instance, a decedent over the age of 100 would be worth one point, someone in their 90s could be worth two, someone in their 80s worth three, and so on. Thus, we'd be scored on the number of our picks (as we presently do) AND on the number of age-related points. Just something to think about. What say ye? .
