Friday, September 26, 2014 — 4:00 am — The last Pre-Code Friday just began on TCM … A Free Soul, 1931 … Have it in my DVD collection … totally forgot that Leslie Howard is in it … and shoots suave tough guy, Clark Gable! … The wonder of having TCM back … and rediscovering films I thought I knew! …
The fatal scene … Leslie will sit down across the desk from Gable ….
Leslie and Norma Shearer in happier days …
Leslie and Norma Shearer … a kiss behind bars …
The black and white tv at 17th Lane introduced me to Leslie … The Petrified Forest, 1936 … After I first saw Lawrence of Arabia, summer, 1964 … and immersed myself in Seven Pillars of Wisdom and the real T.E. Lawrence … Leslie … sensitive, strong, literate, British … very Lawrentian …
Leslie Howard … born to play T.E. Lawrence …
Movies, Of Course!
