Thankfully we get lots of requests for new pages. Well…the wife recently informed me that my way of collecting my requests was pretty weak. She seems to think that writing down requests on whatever piece of paper or napkin or bill that is currently on my desk is not the way to do it. So….since she is way smarter than me….I have decided to create a page just for requests. Plus it should give a good idea of what pages are coming down the pike.
My logic in picking which page to do next….I lean heavily towards the subject that has the most requests.

Many more to come…have to find all of my old napkins and transfer the requests to this page.
i am sorry we had “BB” Brigitte Bardot too in France and in Britain they had Diana Doors
but may be Lollobrigida is more well known for the”50″ in America.
it is just a suggestion
bye bye
pierre
Hey Pierre…both BB and Gina would make great UMR subjects for sure.
hey Bruce,
i see your Tony Curtis page and i write a comment to day and of course in all the films i saw with Curtis there is Trapeze.
you work for a Lancaster page and then for a Curtis page so now what do you think for a Gina Lollobrigida page.
in France she has one of the great box office for the “50”and the “60” like in Italie but when she work for Hollywood it was with Bogart and Lancaster and Brynner and so on.
of course it is a suggestion but dont forget you have a Sophia Loren page and in the “50”
the legend battle in america was between Monroe and Taylor but in Europe it was between Lollobrigida and Loren….lol
i am in vacation so i can go on your site and take time for writing a comment;
have a nice week end
Pierre
.
Hey Pierre….hope you are enjoying your vacation. Vacation and movie talk sounds like a perfect way to spend some time.
I can Gina L. to the request list. Her career should be fun to research…thanks for the suggestion.
Hey Bruce, since you’ve already answered to 3 of my requests, please take the following more as “suggestions” than requests. While exploring your pages I went looking for Hedy Lamarr and of course couldn’t find a page on her. So, since she was a great star and a smart woman, I think she deserves a page of her own 😉 Also, I think my “Godmother” Ida Lupino had an interesting career, though it never took her to the heights of screen immortality.
I would also like to get some deeper information on directors like Douglas Sirk, Jack Arnold, Jacques Tourneur and Fritz Lang.
I already found a lot of information on different UMR pages on one former request, Veronica Lake, and some on Sylvia Sidney, but pages on both ladies somewhere in the future would be highly appreciated ( I haven’t forgotten about “The Paramount Course”). Thanks again for all the work you put into expanding this website, have a great weekend!
Hey Lupino…lots of great suggestions here….I will add Hedy Lamarr, Ida Lupino (done some research on her in the past), Sirk, Arnold, Tourneur and Lang. Got you down for Sidney and Lake….and they will make it to the above list…the next time I move all these requests from the comments to the list. At this point…I think there are about 20 requests that need to be moved up. Part of me likes seeing the request list get smaller before it gets longer…lol.
😉
The list is about to expand….debating which new classic subject I should do next….Tony Curtis or Hedy L, or Anthony Mann. Tough decisions.
Bruce… how about Buck Jones!!!!
No no Ken Maynard… wait wait Hoot Gibson! [wink]
Hi ho Silver…. awaaaay
Hey Steve…if your You Tube videos explode with views on these guys…I will be sure to get their UMR pages very soon.
Basil Rathbone will be a good add!
Hey Brando90….I will add Mr. Rathbone to the request list…..that will be one long project for sure…but well worth it.
hello Bruce
thanks for share your informations on Laura Hope Crews, she was known in that days but i think her best way was for the stage on theater.
Anyway she was excentric on the screen with a grain de folie maybe like Marguerite Moreno in France who plaid a lot of part in Sacha Guitry films.
i think with your base now you can answers to a lot of request.
Have a nice day
Hey Pierre….yep….there is enough stats here to do an entire page on her. And she was unknown to me until just a few days ago. It sounds like she had a good career on stage and screen. This is one of the things I love about this website…so many movie buffs come here…..and they are constantly opening up my eyes. 🙂
