Happy Birthday Angela Lansbury

Happy Birthday to an amazing actress. Who has wowed us with movies and television alike. And who is still going strong. Angela Lansbury was born on October 16th, 1925 and will turning 88 in just two days. But the reason why I have come on here to wish her a Happy Birthday so early is because they are having a Angela Lansbury day on TCM on the 16th as well, and I don't want anyone to miss it ;). You can see the following:

- Gaslight at 7:30 AM (or tape it ;) with Ingrid Bergman)

- The Harvey Girls at 9:30 (with Judy Garland)

- Kind Lady at 1:00 PM (with Ethel Barrymore)

- Mister Buddwing at 2:30 (with James Garner)

- In the Cool of the Day at 4:15 (with Jane Fonda)

and

- The Manchurian Candidate at 5:45 (with Frank Sinatra)

You can also find Murder She Wrote any day as well :)

Hope to see you all there with birthday cake, you don't even need your sleuthing hat on!!! 

The Children's Hour

The Children's Hour
Release Date: December 19, 1961
Director: William Wyler
Actors: Audrey Hepburn, Shirley MacLaine, James Garner, Miriam Hopkins, Fay Bainter, Karen Balkin, Veronica Cartwright, and Mimi Gibson

     Karen Wright (Audrey Hepburn), and Martha Dobie (Shirley MacLaine) met at the age of 17, while starting off in college. Now, as bright young women, they are lead teachers at a private school. The school is also a boarding house too. Karen becomes engaged during the first part of the movie, to the popular in town Dr. Joe Cardin (James Garner). Martha's aunt also works for the school and teaches elocution. They have a student, her name is Mary, and she is a conniving little liar. She is a bully in the school and is also over dramatic. After one of her outbreaks, Mary's friends over hear a conversation between Martha and her aunt. They turn what they hear into a wild story, that makes them lose all of their students, and a lot of other things too. This movie is very controversial for its time. But very well made. And you cannot go wrong with Audrey Hepburn.
