    OOH! We love this movie. It's so much fun. Monty Woolley makes what might be a nasty character into a lovable curmudgeon. Bette Davis is at her best.

    Cool movie, Monty Woolley stole the show.

    Monty Wooley's character, Sheridan Whiteside, IS the show, Phil. The whole shebang centers on him, and the all the sub-plots revolve around him.

    Glad you like it. The music ALONE makes it worthwhile -- at least for me. I must have seen this thing at least ten times by now, and I never get tired of it -- but even though it's not really about Christmas at all, it somehow BELONGS to the Christmas Season.

    I wish I could move all of this amazing stuff you've put up in front of my easy chair. It's hard to sit in an office chair and watch whole movies on a computer.

    I do too, Monica. Sitting here as much as I do often gives me a bad case of fanny fatigue, but the computer with which I have a classic love-hate relationship has become my "window on the world."
