This isn't a gossip column[edit]

Deleted gossip about Maureen O'Hara. If you're going to enter something gossipy, please cite a legitimate source, not just another gossip source. J M Rice (talk) 22:36, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia chemistry??[edit]

some subjective observation.. best scene is in the last 15mins or so.. and it only last a minute or two, but harkens back (pays homage?) to another movie, another scene between Power and Lanchester, in the film Son of Fury: The Story of Benjamin Blake (1942). There, Ben is running from the law, and ducks into the home? of a commoner, Bristol Isabel (Lanchester). She hides him for night, day or two?? Then when he sets off, she asks if she could walk a bit w/ him so the neighbor's will think she's got a beau. He's all too happy to oblige. Even gives her a little kiss. Great scene.

So here, when Larry goes to get blank invite from Duchess's social secretary, Miss Keith (Elsa Lanchester) the mutual appreciation and Power's joy of working w/ her is apparent. (As she speaks to him, his face mostly turned away from the camera, you can alllmost get a glimpse of him smiling at her.) Then planting a kiss on her forehead as he heads off, out the window, like a 'thief'. 76.218.248.127 (talk) 18:08, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Value judgment[edit]

"his small inheritance of $3,000 a year." Yes, from the perspective of his wealthy fiancee, this is a "small" amount of money to live on (but if it is interest, it is based on a pretty penny), but objectively, on what basis is it called small?

It puts him above the median tax-return-based income for that year: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-soi/19soirepar.pdf

http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl?cost1=3000&year1=1919&year2=2016 lists $3,000, the amount Larry gets PER YEAR as having the buying power of $41,000 in 2016: not what I would call a small inheritance.

If an unexplained modifier must be used, then "modest" would be better than "small." 64.53.191.77 (talk) 06:03, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
