Ok, not cool. The ending made me tear up even though I expected. I don't cry over movies...
The Harder They Fall.
Bogey died a year after this movie was made.
Highly recommend.

pacanis said:I didn't stay up for that one, but I watched Guess Who's Coming To Dinner right before it.
And Spencer Tracy died just 17 days after making that.
Caught the last half of Oliver! last night, loved it. Wish I'd caught the first half, I played the undertaker's wife in our high school production milleniums ago.
Yes, I was in Oliver! millenniums ago, too! HMS Pinafore, Fiddler On The Roof, Man of La Mancha, Camelot...I love musicals!
I love musicals too! Was also in My Fair Lady and Music Man. Our little school only put on one big musical a year. Loved 'em all, and I watch the movies whenever I can. Of course, I drown out the scores singing along!
My sister's dog was in Oliver at her high school. I was in the chorus of Annie Get your gun and did props and make-up for that play, The Wizard of Oz and Mame. I decided I liked behind the scenes much better (also might have had something to do with me not having much talent acting or singing )!
I would never try out for a part, I was always in the chorus. Believe it or not, I was horribly shy when I was young.
I LOVE musicals also but have a special place in my heart for Brigadoon
Just reading that brought back good memories of watching it with my mom! That is one of my favorites as well. Another that brings back special memories of watching with her is "Carousel."I LOVE musicals also but have a special place in my heart for Brigadoon
