“Sweethearts” reader review…”book isn’t long enough!”

0 Comments

From Harriet Baker:

If I fall asleep at work today you are getting the blame.  I curled up in bed at 9:15 and read until 12:25!!!   I read the Tahoe letter 3 times and yes I had kleenex at my side.  I cried at the first page with the quotes from Irene Dunne, etc.  Lady, you are a great writer!!!   You are such an easy writer to read.

If I have one complaint, it’s that this book isn’t long enough.  I have read Sweethearts 1,565,998 times and I knew immediately what sentences were new.  Keep going Sharon.  Please keep going.

It’s a slow Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy month on TCM, particularly since June is both their birthday month! However, on June 25 they will be honoring opera singers in film and so the following will be shown:

Two of Jeanette’s solo films will also be shown:

Tuesday, June 17,10:15 PM eastern, The Merry Widow
Friday, June 27, 12:30 PM eastern: Cairo (Actually, watch for the brief sighting of Nelson as well!)

June 18, 5:30-6 pm Eastern time, “Prima Donna,” the Screen Directors Playhouse pilot that was written by Gene for Jeanette. Al Caiazza is the talented boy singer who co-stars with Jeanette; he has attented 2 of our Los Angeles events in recent years and spoken about Jeanette’s kindness to him.
