One of my favorite roles she played in film was as Aunt Polly in “Tom Sawyer”! This one came out in late 60s-early 1970s, and starred young Johnny Whittiker (”Family Affair”)(sp?), and a very young Jodie Foster!

Also, I seem to remember that she played the Fairy Godmother in Rogers and Hammerstein’s (1967-68 version)”Cinderella”. That’s another one I enjoyed watching her in! I also remember her playing Ted Danson’s mom in “Three Men And A Baby”, and the grandma character in tv’s “Promised Land” some years back!

You named a few very classy women...the Mooch on the other hand, is just that, a mooch. Bo (short for barack oboma) the dog has more class than these two.

Yep. Good movie, but you left out Louis Armstrong and his All Stars. I knew those guys way back when. That bus would be parked outside the Riviera Ballroom in Lake Geneva, WI during their shows. I met Trummy & Ed Hall during a break my first time there, and they introduced me to Louis. Through 3 more years they always had time for me, a young kid.
