Just a metaphor for what these American Nazis are doing to America. But please let’s just have trump and his Republican Party continue to co-sign the carnage he promised in his inauguration speech.

Hegseth’s staff broke Eisenhower’s globe. The symbolism is too much to bear. (And of course, they ignored the TRAINED EXPERTS WHO HANDLE HISTORICAL ITEMS. Because EDUCATION? EXPERTISE? WHO NEEDS IT?….im going to get some coffee…)

Jacqueline White of “CROSSFIRE” and “THE NARROW MARGIN”-fame, has small part in “A GUY NAMED JOE.” You might think I’m crazy, but I always thought of her as a pre-cursor to Eva Marie Saint. I thought she had . . , something. Loved seeing Eddie Muller interview her at the TCMFF. #JacquelineWhite

“MAYOSAPIANS MATTERS”?????!!! LOL! 😂 Oh Lordt. Listen to her!!! Sis is breaking it down. Now forewarned . . . she talks fast. But if you’d watch more classic films ~ ( like “His Girl Friday” or any 1930’s Cagney movie ) ~ you’d understand ‘Talks Fast.’ www.facebook.com/share/v/1EqZ... 1 / 2

Though she talks fast, I’m telling you, she’s really telling the truth of these political situations because I was following them slowly in real time. #WhitePeoplesBusiness • #VoteBlueOhio Just keeping you informed. 2 / 2

SQUIRRELS TO THE NUTS This movie used to come on tv a lot but I never wanted to watch it. I don’t really like zany screwy things. I should’ve known better. It was Lubitsch after all. What a charming movie!! I highly recommend stepping into Lubitsch’s brain. #ClunyBrown

— Yeh, I was up waaaay early this morning watching TCM and its airing of Robert Osborne’s 2013 TCMFF interview with his old friend, EVA MARIE SAINT. #EvaMarieSaint ~ #RobertOsborne ~ #TCMParty 1 /

I smiled at spotting people I knew in the audience. Mostly, I had this wistful feeling as l watched her recount the stories of her life & career. She is so down-to-earth, normal and real. Serious but with a sense of humor. #EvaMarieSaint 2 /

I can picture her strolling down the supermarket aisle OR down a red carpet w/her husband. And THINK of all the romantic leading men this unassuming beauty paired up w/on screen: Brando, Garner, Monty, Peck, Montand, Rod Taylor, Paul Newman, Burton . . . and Cary Grant. 😍 Dream on ladies. 3 /

I’m a New Yorker, NOT a Michigander. But I will be soo happy for Michigan AND the United States, if ABDUL EL- SAYED becomes the Senator of Michigan. I think he might help teach today’s stupid journalists HOW to properly and honestly and truthfully frame a question. www.threads.com/share/_8ufie...

— When I heard the news, I was in disbelief. That’s right – she was 102 years old and l was STILL in disbelief. The unexpected ( yes, unexpected ) news made my heart ache, but what helped a bit was to have heard the news from my group of classic film friends. #EvaMarieSaint • #TCMParty

I found her acting so real . . . so natural . . . so true. Even at 102 years old, this is STILL quite a loss. 💔 The TCM Remembers’ Memoriam interstitial is really going to hurt. It did. youtu.be/XtT96iebhjE?... #EvaMarieSaint • #TurnerClassicMovies • #TCMParty • #CineMavasClassicMovieClips

Saint’s screen persona was not the blonde bombshell or glamour girl-type. Yo, don’t get me wrong, she was sexy as . . . all get out as the ‘Hitchcock blonde’ opposite Cary Grant in “North by Northwest.” In general l thought she had a casual sophistication, not a hard full-court press. #TCMParty

For her entire career as far as I could see: ( “Hatful of Rain”, “Raintree County”, “36 Hours”, “The Sandpiper”, “Grand Prix”, “The Stalking Moon”, “All Fall Down” etc. ) I found she would pare her character right down to their core with no theatrics or histrionics or embellishments.

Our mutual texting and immediate commiseration was comforting. EVA MARIE SAINT ushered in her long film career opposite that titan of actors ~ Brando ~ in “On the Waterfront.” I think he met his match with the quiet sincere truth of Eva Marie’s acting in that movie.

Imagine, right off the bat winning an Academy Award in her first movie. I mean really, where do you go from there when you win an Oscar your first film out? Well, you take on more and more interesting roles.
