I prepare a daily PowerPoint for some seniors.
I can't tell you how pleased I was when I included this clip of Fanny Brice for her bday yesterday & 1 of the group not only knew who she was, but said they'd never seen her (they knew her from radio):

I've been tracking what I call "Geeky Goodbyes" since 2018.
This is the hardest year I've seen since then. It reminds me of 1977, when we lost Groucho, Zero, Joan Crawford, Elvis, Bing, Charlie Chaplin, & so many more.
My heart goes out to family, friends, & fans 🤍

Happy 91st #DebutDay (30 October 1935) to the all-star (Cagney, Rooney, de Havilland, Jory...) movie version of A Midsummer Night's Dream!
I love this trailer! "You don't have to be highbrow: they're regular movie stars!" 😉

Happy 88th #DebutDay (30 October 1938) to The Mercury Theatre's The War of the Worlds broadcast!
While often referred to as a "hoax", if you listen to the show's beginning or end, they make it clear it's fiction
