AAANNND A WHOLE NEW GARTH GAME IS BORN. NOW WE HAVE FILM QUOTES AT 20 PACES, DUELING SONG PARODIES, AND USING FILM TITLES AS NON SEQUITURS Marsha, Speaking of film titles as non sequiturs.... As a real-life version of The Man from Colorado..... whose dad was once The Sheepman....... I have to say that we are have The Big Heat today where I live now. In fact, it is SO hot it feels like the Plunder of the Sun, but thanks to A/C I have not been driven into a Rage yet... By the way, does anyone know where I can find a film version of Jack London's The Adventures of Martin Eden?
__________________________________________________________________________________
Good luck finding MARTIN EDEN, Kijii. I managed to obtain a bootleg version about ten years ago that was in terrible shape. Too bad -- Glenn made a credible Jack London protagonist.
He romanced two dolls in that one -- Claire Trevor and Evelyn Keyes. That was three times around with Claire (TEXAS, EDEN, DESPERADOES). He was then in his mid-20s for those trio of movies, and a more mature Claire seemed out of his league.
Now Evelyn -- that's a different story. Even more than Rita (5 films), Keyes was his most frequent co-star (6 films). He and Rita were Columbia's hot couple while he and Evelyn were the studio's cute couple. They were actually siblings in their first -- LADY IN QUESTION (Rita was the eventual love interest), but romantically involved in the remaining five -- EDEN, FLIGHT LIEUTENANT (Pat O'Brien played his dad, and would introduce him to future wife Eleanor Powell), DESPERADOES, MATING OF MILLIE, MR. SOFT TOUCH.
