    It was reportedly Cary Grant, who is rumored to have said, "if you don't hire Rex Harrison I won't even SEE your movie!"

    Pre-Order Mame (1974) (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    I'm actually happy that Madeline Kahn wasn't retained for the movie. Because of that we get to treasure her career-making turn in BLAZING SADDLES and ALSO get to savor Jane Connell repeating her Broadway role in THIS one. After Kahn was fired, Lucy was (reportedly) clamoring loudly that she...

    I have to admit I've looked at this multiple times and I cannot fathom what you mean here. Can you enlighten me as to what "skirt-lifting haters" are? LOL... I'm stumped!

    Often by the same people!! :) I, for one, can't WAIT (bring it on, I will remain unbowed!) as this has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. I was raised on it. It was also one of my ex's absolute favorites and was one of the two movies (HELLO, DOLLY being the other) I knew could lift his...
