  I have seen many movies that people would rave about being the best ever,
etc and think "What's the big deal?"
  And don't get me started on critics.  I have found any film they pan I
rather enjoy and the ones they bragged about was nothing/seldom anything
special.

   Always liked Clifton Webb's character.  Webb was a bit over the top with
his acting.

  At times Vincent Price was a bit a hammy.  To me that was part of his
style.

   Cool.  A celeb in our midst.
   I am in a old time radio mail group and at one time we had Michael
Gwynne as a member.  He was in a lot of radio and tv shows, playing both good
guys and bad guys.  Never a big name, but believable in his roles.
   I think Golden Girls, which I always liked, videos are floating around
the net.  
   My civilian boss a few years was nearly a double for Bea Arthur in looks
and personality.
