    Hey Chester (and Mrs. Chester):


    Aww... I have no doubt I'd love watching old movies with you and your family! "Sobbin' Women" is a great, infectious number, but it sure wouldn't win any points for PC-ness, now would it? ^^


    I like "Goin' Co'tin" and the big dance number at the barn-raising, too.


    Poor Jane Powell... all those stinky dirty hairy men she had to put up with. Just turns out most of them are fabulous dancers, though! Only at the movies.

    I hadn't heard about Howard Keel! He seemed like the kind of guy who could seemingly go on forever... so hale and hearty and healthy and handsome.


    Sad. Kiss Me Kate was just on TCM's "Syncopation Station" yesterday... I've always thought of him as a musical star myself, but I'm sure he was great in westerns too.
