He was the TCM July 2017 Star of the Month and had been in a few Summer Under the Stars, the last being I think in 2022 or 2023. #RandomHarvest #RandomRonaldColman #TCMParty

Interesting contrast between the wedding ceremonies. The first he was looking forward to and this one not so much. Poor Pretty Kitty. #RandomHarvest #RandomRonaldColman #TCMParty

Funny that he mentions his father. IRL Colman's father died when he was a young man, effectively killing any chance he had of going to college to study engineering. #RandomHarvest #RandomRonaldColman #TCMParty

Neil Hamilton is not the only actor from #Batman1966 that Colman acted with. Older brother Julian was played by Alan Napier, who would take on the role of Alfred Pennyworth, the butler, caretaker etc on the show.

BTW-my cousine @ladyday93 is still selling versions of that necklace she created-inspired by the little glass beads Smithy gave to Paula after the birth of their son. You can buy one at her etsy shop: iotwstudio.etsy.com/listing/1868... #RandomHarvest #RandomRonaldColman #RonaldColman #TCMParty

The look on his face while she is telling him this is literally the definition of heartbroken. #TCMParty #RandomHarvest #RandomRonaldColman

We did too. We actually saw both and our 5th grade class liked the 1935 film better than the 1980 color tv film. #ATaleOfTwoCities was definitely the 1st Ronald Colman film I saw, even though I didn't realize the scope of who he was. #TCMParty #RandomHarvest #RandomRonaldColman

Don't worry Smithy. This wee bit of BDSM won't hurt a at all. #TCMParty #RandomHarvest #RandomRonaldColman

There was a 1980 tv film starring Christopher Sarandon as both Darnay and Carton. No Hollywood remake yet #RandomRonaldColman #ATaleOfTwoCities #TCMParty

The 1935 version is the only latest Hollywood theatrical film of #ATaleOfTwoCities to date. There is a British one that was done in the 1950s with TCM Star Of The Month Dirk Bogarde as Sydney Carton. #RandomRonaldColman #ATaleOfTwoCities #TCMParty

Interestingly enough Colman has acted in holy quad: he started on stage (where he was discovered), film (silent and sound) radio (both acting and voiceover narration) and tv. He adapted pretty well to each medium. I mean...the career he would've had #RandomRonaldColman #ATaleOfTwoCities #TCMParty

I would be remiss if I didn't mention that there is a Ronald Colman Appreciation Society on Facebook on 'Starring Ronald Colman Night on TCM': www.facebook.com/groups/rcapp... #RandomRonaldColman #ATaleOfTwoCities #TCMParty

I can see it but I think Colman brought a soulfulness to Carton that Sanders might not have. I believe Colman as the guy that would sacrifice himself for Elizabeth Allan's Lucie Manette Darney. Sanders' Carton...not as much. #ATaleOfTwoCities #TCMParty #RandomRonaldColman

And thus begins Ronald Colman's life as a gentleman thief throughout the early 30s. #BeauGeste #RandomRonaldColman #TCMParty

I think you can find the book at the Internet Archive and/or Project Gutenberg and/or the faded page. I did find it problematic in places but it's also a book of its times and there was some good stuff in there too. #BeauGeste #RandomRonaldColman #TCMParty
