We live in an age in which everyone should be dining on the banquet of knowledge, this unprecedented access to information, yet most poor suckers are starving to death in their ignorance. (With apologies to #AuntieMame.) #knowledge #willfulignorance

Always sorry we never get to see Muriel Puce or Bunny Bixler but I’m sure the casting agents could never exceed our imaginations for these two!

Patric Knowles did age nicely from his time was Will Scarlett in ‘Robin Hood‘ to #AuntieMame

Greer Garson appeared as Mystery Guest on WHAT’S MY LINE? 4/6/1958 shortly after assuming the role of Mame Dennis. Check out her outfit! #AuntieMame #TCMParty

That’s my cue to repeat that there’s a personalized license plate in Northern California: YUL ULU!

“And yet…it’s so…sweeeeet.”

God, I love this movie!

“Will it mix with Dr. Pepper?“ “He’ll love it.”

Every time we get to this part I imagine the southern folk are Blanche’s ancestors. #AuntieMame #TCMParty

Whoa, just looked up their ages, didn’t realize that Forrest Tucker was 39 when #AuntieMame was released in 1958 and Rosalind Russell was 51. Good for her!

Unpopular opinion: I really never got into the film #AuntieMame

Counterpoint: Lucille Ball. Just because an actor has strong comedic chops doesn’t mean they’ll excel in the role. #AuntieMame #TCMParty

I definitely agree that Rosalind Russell gives an indelible performance in #AuntieMame, but what do we think about Irene Dunne in the role? #TCMParty

I just read that Greer Garson took over for Rosalind Russell in the Broadway production of #AuntieMame. *That* I would have loved to see.

Rosalind Russell is the only actress who could have played #AuntieMame. Change my mind. #TCMParty

Young Jan Handzlik's voice reminds me Sherman from Peabody and Sherman. #AuntieMame #TCM #TCMParty

When I saw The Killing of Sister George, I didn't realize Coral Browne was also Vera Charles in #AuntieMame until I looked it up. Diverse actress with a fascinating history. #TCM #TCMParty

Well alrighty then, #AuntieMame is on #TCMParty

One of my all-time favorite movies! 🍿 Anyone else enjoy this movie as much as I do?

I added a small movie clip below 🎞️

I so wish I had grown up with an Auntie Mame. This movie brings me laughter, smiles and tears.

Random double feature this evening: #JackieBrown and #AuntieMame. Not too much in common aside from main character names as titles and some cultural insensitivity.

it's not christmas until #auntiemame arrives!
the ONE and ONLY #rosalindrussell, 1958.

Watching the West Coast feed of #AuntieMame since the TCM programmers couldn’t see fit to put it on at a decent hour and I already saw ‘Three Godfathers’ and ‘Bachelor Mother’ last week.
