WHO KILLED TEDDY BEAR?
I remember this movie from TV’s Million Dollar Movie days. It was creepy sordid seamy bawdy salacious and sexually assaulting as my old beloved Times Square.
Ya know . . . the good ol’ days! Whew! Elaine Stritch is one tough broad.

70 yrs ago today the iconic #RebelWithoutACause was premiered, starring #JamesDean, #NatalieWood, & #SalMineo. It captured the teen angst of living in the ColdNwqr and Nuclear Age made the trio stars. James Dean was incredible! Gone too soon. 😞🎥👏🏻
