who says he did?

and on a separate note... i just signed up with netflix this week, and i'm busy setting up my list of movies... so keep those suggestions coming rb... after seein' all the 'current' crap, we always like to go back and watch the old crap as well!
it's so damn tempting to get a copy of monterey pop and just keep playin' the sucker over 'n over...

I'm with you Arnie. I personnelly don't think he's got the balls.

*Ya, on the oldie's. Love Arlo doing 'Walkin Down the Line' on the 'lost' Woodstock thing.

**Bit of trivia, didn't know that was John Wayne (yes the Duke) son, in Star Trek episode playing Captain Pike I believe. The Managery???

@ gotta love Deforest Kelly's bit part in 'Shenendoah' where he plays an Army medic. His lines going like somthin like this "For God's sake can't you see the man is dead Captain".

Triple rush.......<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/dead.gif" width=15 height=15>

... and I vaguely remember (which is the best I can do for a few of those years--they remain pretty vague) a movie from The Firesign Theatre--2000 Motels, I think. Played at the drive-in. Not sure of the name--anyone remember exactly?

Ahhhh yes. That triggered 2 or 3 memory cells. Still don't remember much of it--I'll check out google.com.

fun to watch an 'old' movie and discover who was playing bit (one line only) roles...
just saw The Graduate this weekend...
no less than three fairly major up-an-comin' stars cast in bit roles...
Mike Farrell (BJ Honeycutt from MASH)
Ryan O'Neal (Tatum's dad... )
Richard Dreyfus (oh man, you name it, he's done it...)

and some singin' duo... can't recall their name right now... oh yeah... Tom & Jerry!

Yeah, I like watching old Mayberry R.F.D. and catching acts like 'Jack Nickolson'.

*My favorite lately is *the old 'Dennis the Menace'.

**Another Alice that played on TV in the late 50's and early 60's.

Part of this thread should include an Alice, from the past...It's an unpopular name, but surfaces allot none-the-less......<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/dead.gif" width=15 height=15>

If he did, you can bet that someone else was buying and rolling, and that Dubya was Bogarting that thing anyway!

Yes Agnes, probly the most infamous of all. Alice in Wonderland. That is for the imagitative thinker who loves getting lost. Great post!.....<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15>

I had an Aunt Alice, who lived her entire life in St. Albans Vermont. She was a spinster who lived with her only sister. Mary LeMiere. Alice was indeed ahead of her times, as she advocated the flossing of one's teeth. (I think she owned shares of Listerene stock). Very fond memories of Aunt Alice. She lived to be in her late 90's, and had all her teeth, to the end. She didn't smoke, but enjoyed her homemade wine. Not to mention, an occasional ice cold ale, or small glass of Champaine. she was quite a gal! Old Aunt Alice was.........<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/cool.gif" width=15 height=15>

*Yes, she out lived Mary by about 9 yrs. She worked as a Telephone Operator during the depression, leaving her a good pension. And living her lifestyle, one can only speculate?

(i can't believe i actually found this thread...to tell you the truth, i thought i was looking for a different thread title, and this one side tracked me...but happened to be the thread i was looking for)
anyway...another alice is in the movie "conspiracy theory" with julia roberts (as alice) and mel gibson (as jerry). very convincing performances from both of them (i got someone looking over my shoulder saying, "and she should know." but don't listen to them) <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15>
...i love mel gibson's passionate character...one of my favorite scenes is not where he can't remember the combination to the coffee canister and with a sense of futility offers alice grapefruit juice instead, "i can't seem to remember the combination to the coffee, would you like some grapefruit juice instead?"...it's when he remembers the combination right after trying to explain (on the edge of tears) why he owns so many copies of "catcher in the rye" (though he's not read any of them) as something he has to do in order to feel normal..."you still want some coffee?"
...and also where alice throws jerry out of her apartment after she's lost any capacity for understanding his idiosyncrasies, closing the door firmly behind him...and after a moment he opens the door and tells her to dead bolt the door, "use your dead bolts, alice." then closes himself back out.
and...and...
well, it's not a 60's movie, but it is an alice movie.
