Welp! That phone conversation took a few years off my life.

Somebody always calls me around 9 pm & interrupts the damn movie I’m watching. #tcmparty

OMG! I may have to go to this! #tcmparty

Cliff Edward, the voice of Jiminy Cricket, voices the unseen soldier. #tcmparty

I love Scarlett’s hairdos in the Christmas scenes, with those beautiful hair combs. #tcmparty #GWTW

Cap. Butler was a calligrapher, too! #tcmparty

Gable & Howard co-starred in A Free Soul 1931. #GWTW #tcmparty

Ok, get ready. Watch Howard as he strides out of this scene, he has the goofiest look on his face. #Tcmparty #GWTW

Vivien Leigh was too beautiful. #tcmparty #GWTW

Thomas Mitchell made 5 movies in 1939 and 3 of them were Best Picture nominated films. He won Best Supporting Actor in that same year for Stagecoach. #tcmparty #GWTW

Now, I’m doing the math in @gayerthanthou.bsky.social fashion and realize my viewing of GWTW in the 1975 in a theatre was less than 40 years after the film was made & my watching it now in 2026 is 50 yrs removed from that 1975 viewing and I should probably be dead. #tcmparty #GWTW

My Dad (yeah him again) took me to see GWTW when it was re-released in the 1970s. It was magic seeing it on the big screen & there was a lot hype about it. I was excited to see the 4 lead actors up there on the silver screen, the theatre was packed & the audience was very vocal. #tcmparty #GWTW

I’m at the point with GWTW where I pay more attention to Leslie Howard because he looks so uncomfortable as Ashley and I like to catch him rolling his eyes in various scenes. #tcmparty

Gypsy was fun! Now do I watch GWTW? #tcmparty

I love how Baby June is completely forgotten about, like she died or something. #tcmparty #Gypsy

The vocals in this number were a mix of Russell & singer Lisa Kirk. #tcmparty #Gypsy

I had a crazy, competitive mother. #tcmparty #Gypsy

I feel like Russell was channeling Cagney there. #Tcmparty #Gupsy

And Judy & Natalie looked so much alike. #tcmparty #Gypsy

Natalie’s costumes, by Orry-Kelly, are fabulous. #tcmparty #gupsy

I remember thinking, I could do this when I grow up. I was always so invested in show business movies. #Tcmparty #Gypsy

Catch the Ethel Merman caricature to Natalie’s right when she sees herself in the mirror. #tcmparty #gypsy

Bump it with a trumpet! #tcmparty #Gypsy

Once I was a schlepper Now I’m Miss Mazeppa! #tcmparty #Ggpsy

That’s how burlesque was born! #tcmparty #Gypsy

Mama Rose! Where the hell did I get June?

Here is where the movie really gets going, the burlesque joint. #tcmparty #Gypsy

Here’s a demo recording of Judy singing Some People for an upcoming concert in 1962. #tcmparty youtu.be/2TgiyNN12io?...

Judy would have totally understood the part and in 1962 she was having a renaissance. I think she could have done it & nailed it. #tcmparty #Gypsy

Natalie had her heart set on Judy Garland playing Mama June. Can you f*cking imagine? #tcmparty

Gypsy really bowled me over when it came out in the movie theatres. I was just a kid & Natalie Wood was my favorite movie star. I’m so glad I was old enough to have seen her & loved her in the movies. #tcmparty

So beautiful

A guy just told me I smelled good while waiting in line at the coffee shop. At least he didn’t say Happy Mother’s Day.

Veda takes going to jail like a mob boss. #tcmparty #MildredPierce Veda 30 years later:

The minute someone tells you they’ll change you should know it will never happen, take it from me. #tcmparty #MildredPierce

💙🙏💪🏽

Everybody is playing you Mildred! You’re such a dope. #tcmparty #MildredPierce

We get double the “Veda” in this scene. The other showgirl was played by Veda Ann Borg. #tcmparty #MildredPierce

My favorite Ida outfit. #tcmparty #MildredPierce

I’m packed!

I blame it on the Bossa Nova. #tcmparty #MildredPierce

What I see in my head whenever Zachary Scott turns to profile. #tcmparty #MildredPierce

Please don’t let’s talk about Kay. I’d like to forget that I ever said I’d never forget her. #Tcmparty #MildredPierce

Malibu must have been jonesing for fried chicken & mashed potatoes. #tcmparty #MildredPierce

Actually, Mrs. Biederhoff, this makeshift, bedroom hospital setup probably killed my kid! Keep your stinking tea! #tcmparty #MildredLierce

Veda seems to forget her mother’s people are her people, too! It’s called DNA.

My sister saw a movie with Ann Blyth in it the other day and asked me if I had ever heard of her, b/c I like old movies Proof positive I’m adopted. #tcmparty

It’s an Old Hollywood Law: When the star of the movie is of a certain age and portraying a mother, it’s a must that the movie establishes she got married at 17. #Tcmparty #MildredPierce

I’d like this detective to be my psychoanalyst. #tcmparty #MildredPierce
