Lionel Barrymore: A Crusty Curmugdeon...But Only On-Screen!MovieFanFare

Lionel Barrymore: A Crusty Curmugdeon...But Only On-Screen!MovieFanFare Terrific I've seen almost everything he has appeared in. I think they deserve the label royalty of the American theater and film industry. I can't think of actors who had their range and ability to deliver performances that were consistently good and emotionally compelling no matter what they were in.

History's Magic Mirror: America’s Economic Crisis and the Weimar Republic of Pre-Nazi Germany

History's Magic Mirror: America’s Economic Crisis and the Weimar Republic of Pre-Nazi Germany
We have a lot to be afraid of depending on next weeks outcome. All the voter manipulation going on with the GOP and the hurricane. Will we be able to get through this election cycle believing that our elections are not being screwed up by immoral operatives? We'll see about voter fraud Fla. style next week. I hope the democrats will not be so spineless this time around if irregularities by GOP are found and won't back down when challenged.
