Memory --- again, and again, and again

I am watching lots of DVDs these days.

Whoever imagined that a person could have a private showing at just the right volume, brightness etc.

I just recalled a great movie I saw a hundred years ago: Born Yesterday ( ! ) ( ? )

It stars Broderick Crawford as a gruff political wheeler-dealer. William Holden is an idealistic journalist.

And the fabulous Judy Holliday plays the putative dumb blond, "kept" by Crawford.

A great line:

Crawford : "You're uncouth."

Holliday: "I'm just as couth as you are."

I try to be couth. I usually succeed. I think.
