Gilded Lily


(5 stars)

I'm a 45 year old dude and I'm quite surprised to find myself invested in the outcome of The Gilded Lily. I know nothing about the actors or this show. I barely know who Cecil DeMille is. But this silly romance is quite charming! Note: There is a brief insulting depiction of a woman of color.

A treasure trove


(5 stars)

Most of these are very good or excellent. One standout in the opposite direction is Madame Butterfly. This one is remarkable in its awfulness. Cary Grant comes off like a cold creepy sex tourist, and Butterfly sounds like an older woman having a laugh at Japanese accents. Still entertaining though!

The Front Page


(5 stars)

Listening to The Front Page (June 28th) is eerie. At the end, they announce that Amelia Earhart would be a guest the following week "if she arrived on time." She would, of course, be missing by then. Chilling to hear, but so fascinating.

Dulcy


if you do a search for "Dulcy" you will find the complete Lux Radio Theater with Burns and Allen complete with opening and closing credits.
