1. "Hellcats of the Navy" had better be on, DAMMIT! |
|
This is the movie where Ronnie and Nancy first met. If you want to see the beginnings of the love story for the ages, "Hellcats" is the movie you MUST see!

5. Yes, another classic from Nancy's tragically brief film legacy. |

I remember "Donovan's Brain" very well.

...the film was made in '57. They met years earlier.
When they did this movie, they were already married.
I've learned way too much this week. Way too much.

"Hellcats".
My bad. Since we are being given all of the breathless details of their heartwarming story this week, I should have known this.

2. And it's a wonder that they still refer to him as a successful actor |

9. Well, he was...in the days before TV. |
|
I've heard his movies were about the same quality as your typical network television show. In those days, people still spent whole afternoons in movie theaters watching that stuff because TV hadn't yet saturated the market.

10. He didn't become "successful" |
|
as an actor until he had achieved the presidency. Before that, he was routinely referenced as a journeyman actor who made "B movies."
