Maybe just which scene or scenes you appear in.

It was also my favorite “endless horde” movie. He’s always forgotten, but the “real” star was Terrence Hill as ‘the gypsy’. I’m glad Sprint is giving him credit now in their “faster than Nextel” commercial. He’s the guy who holsters his gun, slaps the other guy, and redraws his gun before the other guy can draw his gun. That clip is from a movie called “My Name is Nobody” starring Henry Fonda. I myself had forgotten about those movies until I saw the commercial.

She was then a strikingly beautiful middle-aged woman.

(Why, yes, I am wearing girl-topic-sensitive sunglasses. Why do you ask?)

Interestingly, and not so little ironically, she had some before become the face for some YSL anti-age cream(s) (admittedly, some years ago now).

I enjoyed Little Miss Sunshine. The rest of the movies I thought were PC and real downers. In 1939 none of them would have contended.

As for Nicholson, How about Jabba the Hut?

Leo starred in two big movies this year, Departed and Blood Diamond. I thought he was terrific in both of them.

My mother followed that dream. Started at eighteen, eventually owned her own shop with 2-6 operators, depending on the season. Raised three boys, saved her money and eventually retired comfortably. She was always interested in style, both hair and clothes, and was quite stylish herself. As for wasting her mind, you’d be surprised what she learned from her customers. No, it wasn’t all gossip. Many of her customers were wives of wealthy, power-broker men with stock market, real estate, banking and other useful tips.
