Rod Serling had a lot of fantasies.
'מארץ
Now there's a name I just don't see every day. More like never. Well until 5 days ago when I came upon him, as
the original Norman Maine in A Star is Born (1937).
So as the simple observations went along,
March from the land, מארץ' מארץ -- sounds like an Exodus.
Made sense... a Star is Born (Passover, the birthday of the Jewish nation)
Who can keep up anymore..
Read the book as a kid, loved it.
Watching OK Corral right now with Bert and Kirk.
Great flick it was on TCM today. James Mattoon Scott.... a modern day Crassus. But here we are sixty years later and it hasn’t happened yet. A left-wing fever dream.
Have you spoken to former General Mark Milley lately.
I watched, “Seven Days In May,” years ago while in the military. It has been on TV several times but I did not watch any reruns. Lancaster and Rock Hudson made it OK to be perverted homosexuals in Hollywood and on top of that Lancaster was a left-wing, bleeding-heart liberal.
Douglas was also a left-wing, bleeding-heart liberal.
I cannot separate the actors from their perversions and political idiocies so that I continually pass on their reruns.
Thanks for posting.
ECOMCON!!!
“Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster spent some time before filming touring around Washington, D.C. to get a feel for the place. They were escorted around by a young army officer, future 4 star general and Secretary of State Alexander Haig.”

This was on TCN yesterday. Two thoughts:
— A clique of ambitious career generals plot to overthrow a president who they think must be a Russian asset. Hmmm..
— Even before seeing the credits, I suspected that Rod Serling had a hand in writing this. As with the Twilight Zone, the action would grind to a halt so a character could deliver a portentous speech.
