I think, sadly, alcoholism was something he was very familiar with, as he struggled with it all his life (as did his brother John). <br /><br />I also didn't realize Clark Gable and Leslie Howard had been in any films together prior to Gone With The Wind.

I watched this film again not that long ago, and even though I've seen it about ten times before, I never get tired of seeing it.<br /><br />I also invite you to check out my article for the blogathon.

Plus I haven't seen many Norma Sharear movies (hum...ONE) so this one could be the next one! :)Virginie Pronovosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12690434044034618183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5719905867000998397.post-58961929458978848612017-08-17T13:09:26.473-03:002017-08-17T13:09:26.473-03:00I love this movie.

However, that Oscar season I think they should have given the trophy to Jackie Cooper in Skippy, and not just because he cried, because he was perfect.<br /><br />Nonetheless, you reminded me just what an overall excellent movie this is, and I thank you.Caftan Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936895555808823221noreply@blogger.com
