That was hilarious.

It was.

That show was so funny all around.

They don't make shows like that anymore, ones that make you laugh until you cry.

That is a favorite movie and Carol's version is a scream!

There is a scene where Gloria S. gives William H. a cigarette case engraved with, "Mad About the Boy." Love it!

Such a fabulous movie in every way. I've seen it many times and watch it whenever it comes on.

SB airs often on the Retro Movie Channel. So does All About Eve.

If you have cable & the Retro channel, I think it's on either tomorrow or Fri morning. Otherwise, TCM airs it several times a year.

I hate that creepy opening, with the dead monkey. If I can get past that part, I do like the movie, though it's a pretty dark story.

I also love "Now, Voyager" there is the scene at, near the end when he picks up two cigarettes and puts them in his mouth and offers a fatally ill Bette Davis one "Shall we have a cigarette?" or something on that order.
