My dad told me today that when he was thirteen he was riding his skateboard on 78th street in NYC when he stopped and coming out of an antique shop was Edward G Robinson. He said, “It’s the boss!” Edward G with two blondes on his side yelled back, “ Don’t you forget it!”

Doris Day was only nominated for an Academy Award for PILLOW TALK (1959), but I also feel that she should have been recognized for LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME (1955). My review of one of Day's best roles:

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again one of my favorite directors who never got enough respect for his directing. Like, Robert Redford he was so good at it and very sensitive to actors.
Paul Newman made his auspicious feature film directing debut with the powerful character study RACHEL, RACHEL ('68) starring Joanne Woodward. It received four Oscar nominations including Best Picture and Best Actress for Woodward.
