*****UPDATE***** Is there really no one out there who knows the two actresses on either side of the seated center actress? Come on, look at their faces! The one on the right (our right) is hugely famous for god sakes. The one on the left not so much but still, anyone who knows early to mid thirties fantasy and horror should know her.
Work has once again conspired to keep me from any serious update here or at that other place where it has unofficially become One Post Only Week. But like the banner says, I won't leave you hanging. I can't check in much today but here's a pic of some actresses just because... well, just because I have to put something up don't I? The two actresses flanking the center actress are a piece of cake to figure out but the other four more challenging. Unless of course you know the source of the photo which can be easily found on Google simply by typing in the name of the easy to guess actress left of center. If you want to go that way I can't stop you but if you want to try and test your facial recognition skills please do. I should tell you, except for a random guess on the back one I couldn't get any of the others.
And if anyone wants to name today's banner movie, you could test your skills there too (I'm sure Marilyn knows it, but sorry, no points for Name That Movie on this one. Too easy.).

You're sure, are you? I don't know it, except that the woman looks like Nanette Fabray.
But Marilyn, it's you know who. Here's the original still. Now you recognize her right?
Peggy!
The one and only!
I want work to be over, and I'd like to go home.
Also, I'd like to know why my blog was having trouble loading this morning (I have a blog, by the way), and now that it seems to have fixed itself, the sitemeter button has disappeared.
Bill, I'm afraid I can't help you with the blog loading thing. But I want work to be over too, as in forever because I become an instant billionaire. I'm hoping the billionaire thing will somehow magically happen through sheer dumb luck.
And now I have to go back to work and won't check back for a while. Later.
All I want is my condo board election to be over. Work is a pleasure compared to that.
Okay, back to my problem. Can anyone with a free second or two go over to my blog and see if it's loading properly? It's been in and out all day, on more than one computer, and Blogger Support stinks.
Bill, I haven't had any problems with your site all morning. And may I say that your post on The Wrestler was a very fine one.
Jonathan - It looks like Steve didn't post your piece today after all (he does this to me all the time). I'll bet it goes up on Monday. I'll keep you informed.
Herm...well, thanks A) for the info, which puzzles me, and B) for the compliment. Have you written on The Wrestler yet? I'll go look...
Haven't seen it yet, so I can't comment. The film worries me a bit because it really sounds brutal.
There is one pretty rough sequence, but only one. Most of the wrestling depicted is of the showy, melodramatic 1980s variety.
Interestingly, most of my blogging is " of the showy, melodramatic 1980s variety." I prefer it that way.
Marilyn, thanks for the heads up on the posting. I'll look for it on Monday.
Bill, your blog loaded fine for me too, although I do wish you would engage in more blogging "of the showy, melodramatic 1980s variety" too so I wouldn't be the only one.
By the way, the movie in the banner is Carry On Admiral with Peggy Cummins. In this one she has no gun mania to speak of.
Bill, your site is not loading for me in IE. I'm guessing if I went home and tried opening it in Firefox, it would work fine.
Yesterday, my blog was screwed up too, Blogger seems to be going through some issues with script code working in IE browsers. For now, you should probably remove the sitemeter code from your site. Although it wasn't Sitemeter screwing me up yesterday -- it was a bookmarking ultility called OnlyWire, which I promptly deleted without qualms. I'd be more upset if I had to delete my tracking script to get it working again.
Bill, I take that back because of course now your site is loading for me in IE. I don't know.
Ed, like I said, it's been in and out for me all day, so the fact that it just worked for you doesn't mean anything. Anyway, it wasn't loading again, so I removed the sitemeter thing, and now it's working. So I guess that was it. I'll try putting the button back up in a few days.
Jonathan - Your showy, melodramatic 1980s style of blogging is yours. If I started blogging in the same way, it would be like slicing off your face and wearing it as my own. Which I told my doctors I would NEVER do again.
Marilyn, for what it's worth, I noticed that your comment, and the section of the post to which it referred, is back on Glenn Kenny's site.
If I started blogging in the same way, it would be like slicing off your face and wearing it as my own. Which I told my doctors I would NEVER do again.
God I know. Does anybody here remember Jerry? He's the blogger Bill is referring to. Jerry was a nice guy, blogged about new movies mostly. Then one day Bill was like, "I'm going to use Jerry's style. No, wait, I've got a better idea. I'm gonna rip his face off and wear it as my own."
I'd tried to talk Bill out of it but it was no use. In Bill's defense he did pay for a face transplant for Jerry after that but Jerry never blogged again. To be honest, I feel partly responsible. I kept bragging about my belt made out of blogger's nipples to Bill and I probably shouldn't have. It wasn't even totally true. Most of the nipples came from corpses dug up in the graveyard.
Anyway, good times. Good times.
I really miss your nipple belt. To this day, I wish I'd never eaten it.
Yeah, me too. I loved that belt. But it's okay caused I'm really more into my human skin vest now anyway.
What... What are you doing? Stop sprinkling salt and pepper on my vest.... Bill... Bill Stop!
Carry On Admiral? That's one I haven't seen. I use to see a bunch that were shown on TV every Saturday night.
Leave it to Hellhaus to drag the conversation back down to the gutter.
Carry on Peter. Don't worry about Arbo. He's still upset because I used one of his nipples for the belt.
Oh, I thought you meant the actresses on the far end of that row. The actresses are Spring Byington (I think) and Ginger Rogers (I know).
Thanks Marilyn. It's not Spring but it is Ginger, looking a little bloated. The other is Gloria Stuart. If you want to see more pics just type in WAMPAS Baby Stars in Google images or you can read about them here.
