Yes, I can see that. Think ‘My Fair Lady’ the sexes flipped.
Remember Dinah from the original ‘Dinah Shore Show’ aired in the Fifties? She was also once featured on the Ralph Edwards “This is Your Life” about the time her original show was a hit. As a child, the family watched both programs religiously every week. Rabbit ears and all -B/W of course :-))

Burt had his own way of thinking. Who would build a ranch in Florida with a family mausoleum and then abandon the ranch? Or Cut an LP and after the fact begin taking singing lessons.

The Dinah Shore Show and ‘rabbit ears’ were way before my time. :)
I’m a classic movie fan- big time, and I read about all the old stars and movies and TV shows.

Yes, Burt really had an unusual way of doing things.
I never knew he built a ranch with a mausoleum and abandoned it or that he ever made an album. (but then I haven’t read all that much about Burt, not being a big fan.)

However; ask me anything about Liz Taylor (bet I can name all her husbands), Cary Grant, Clark Gable or Marilyn Monroe. Real trivia buff. LOL

Can’t explain the fascination..guess I’m really an old soul at heart. Don’t care for most modern movies (too much sex and violence) or modern music. (love 60’s, 70’s rock)
