    The Closet Door is Open - Lavender Ladies & Gents of the Golden Age of Hollywood

    The long running, hugely popular, uk show Morcombe and Wise , regularly featured them in the same bed with no hint of a gay theme. It's a shame in some ways that that sort of innocence has gone. Funnily enough , Eric Morcombe was a good friend of Cary Grant later in Grants life.

    The Closet Door is Open - Lavender Ladies & Gents of the Golden Age of Hollywood

    The story of Cary and randolph circulated at the time and they just laughed it off then. There no evidence that he was gay, bisexual or anything else. You will not find a less homophobic person than me. I have many gay friends and a number of heroes who are or were gay. I really really object...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I think it'd be an interesting subject but there's a lot of 'political' misinformation out there. Flynn gay, Cary Grant gay... Not a shred of evidence for either ascertain. I would have no problem if it were true but I really loathe the twisting of facts. Particularly when it concerns dead...

    What's your alltime favorite movie?

    Too many great vintage films. Perhaps we should start a new topic for Favourite Newer film? Favourite from the last 30, 20 and ten years.... On that basis I'd go for: Raiders of the Lost Ark Saving Private Ryan Fellowship of the Ring

    Brown Shoes with Gray Suit?

    I mostly wear brown shoes with my grey suits - with a coordinated brown belt if I'm wearing one. Mind you , I do live in the country and travel into the city most days... As I recall that was the rule?

    Interned in Ireland

    I believe as far as Sweden was concerned my grandfather and his pilot had to give an undertaking that they would not be combatants again. My grandfather was groundcrew after his return although he did also have some injuries. The pilot went straight back to flying and was killed on his next but...

    Cuffed or Un-Cuffed, that is the question?

    I'm just watching From Russia with Love and I note that Robert Shaws character is wearing a 60s style suit with cuffed pants (you can see it clearly before the fight on the train)

    Interned in Ireland

    Interesting link. Thank you :) My grandfather was interned in sweden for a short while in 1943. It's interesting that the swedes allowed captured airmen to be repatriated to the uk while Ireland it seems did not.

    The general decline in standards today

    Yes - you're quite right. There are pros and cons to it. Sadly the biggest con is that the stupid get to breed before the sabre tooth tiger eats them ;)
