You're welcome, Alejandra. Just a little note to everyone, TheMerryArtist's YouTube account was suspended, in other words, it's been taken down. So, the link for "Camille" is no longer any good. I thought that I had seen another copy of it but I c...

I'm just curious. Did anyone else notice that he answers tweaking his right ear lobe with thumb and forefinger? I have seen him do this before, but where?

This belongs to the vals we hear in Camille? It's a well known musical piece but I can't identify it. Anybody knows this vals?

Hi, all. You guys are sometimes SO far ahead of me ... these days, I'm working to catch up! I thought I'd posted this link back when I heard from Dick about it but obviously I didn't. My apologies--glad you found it. First, Ms. Parker's favorite ...

Interview with Eleanor Parker

I found part of an interview with Eleanor Parker yesterday. Dick Dinman, of "DVD Classics of the Air" radio program had an interview with Eleanor Parker in september:

"ELEANOR PARKER'S FAVORITE (AND LEAST FAVORITE!) LEADING MAN : Three time Best Actress Oscar nominee Eleanor Parker's scores of leading men included Gable, Flynn (twice), Bogart, Sinatra (twice), Mitchum, Kirk Douglas, Heston, MacMurray, and many others of equal prominence and she returns to the show to rev… Continue

Just a Philosopher in Hollywood

This is an article appeared on UK magazine Picturegoer dated March 28th 1936. The young and rising star talks about acting and working in Magnificent Obsession which has been released just three months ago in the US and was a critical and commercial success. He speaks proudly of his performance making keen observations. A strange and unexpected attitude from an actor (a man) who was widely known for his complete lack of pretension and affectation. I wonder when did he become so extremely self-ef… Continue

At 12:48am on October 23, 2009, Carol Brough Smith said…: Sorry Alejandra, I may have misunderstood that you were related too. But after rereading your post I think you were just asking who is a common ancestor to Robert Taylor and I. Our common ancestor is Jacob Bruch (changed to Brugh in America). Hermanus Bruch/Brugh who with his wife, Catharina, and several children, including Jacob, arrived in Philadelphia, PA in Sept. 1743, from the Palatinate region of Germany. They settled in York County, PA. Our line eventually changed the surname spelling to Brough. Jacob's brother Daniel moved his family down to the Botetort County, VA, area where several still live today. They kept the Brugh spelling.

Jacob Brugh? How closely related to Bob are you?
