I didn't hear if anyone was planning for a live thread of the film tonight. Just in case anyone wants to start early. Some in Australia already have seen part 1. Part 1 airs tonight at 8pm Eastern Time on ABC.
Yea, they cut the infrared....so what? They got the most important part. Who cares that they cut the infrared?
And Koppel is telling him what he's saying wrong..............LOL........
This is a great night for us!
McFadden, 50, coanchor of Nightline and Primetime and ABC's senior legal correspondent, met the legendary actress on the beach in Fenwick, Conn., while visiting her Bowdoin College freshman roommate. Hepburn lived one house away, by the water.
At the time, McFadden was about 19, Hepburn in her late 60s. McFadden was rigging a sailboat with her roomie's brother when the actress came upon them.
"We started a conversation that went on for the next 30 years," McFadden says. "Why she fascinated me was easy to understand. What she possibly saw in this kid on the beach was a mystery to me."
McFadden's theory is that Hepburn, who was childless, "was at a point in her life where she wanted to tell somebody the way she thought a good life should be lived. I was in the right place at the right time."
Over the years, the two women bonded. Hepburn took McFadden on trips to California and Florida, among other places. McFadden brought Hepburn home to Auburn, Maine, for Christmas.
McFadden was married at Hepburn's Connecticut summer home. (Hepburn helped with the tab.) She named her own son Spencer, after Hepburn's longtime paramour, Spencer Tracy.
McFadden was in the room when Hepburn died in June '03 at 96. Three years earlier, Hepburn had named McFadden, a lawyer, executor of her estate.
"I always joke that I thought she liked me. Now I'm not so sure," McFadden says. "Being executor is a lot of work."
Given Hepburn's vast collection of paintings, furniture, theater and movie memorabilia and personal correspondence, the settlement "is a work in progress," McFadden says. "It won't be over for years."
For McFadden, traveling in "Aunt Kat's" charmed inner circle "was like a junior Olympics for life."
Definitely.
4. They are in this country NOW!
Can anyone provide a summary? I've been away from a tv. I hope they told it like it was b/c if Reagan had been there OBL would have been dead by 1994.
I knew him as a college student who lived on my wing in the dorm, and we sat together in Poli Sci class. He was a big farm kid and football player, not the kid you'd expect to move out to New York City. He was quiet and gentle, always ready to help. The kid you'd want to marry your daughter.
He's only one of many, but it helps me to remember by focusing on the one that I knew personally.
Sora$$ in Koppel's auduence?
I cannot watch that!
Right -- that is unforgiveable --- tipping off Pakistan.
"The Sandy Burglar hangup was cut."
Are you serious!? Jeezzz.
So they cut it. I knew they would. Why should anyone be surprised? The Democrats are the party of censorship and the Mainstream Media are their willing acomplices. Believe me, if they could have all Conservatives eliminated they would. They are Stalinists in sheeps clothing, imo.
That was David Asman's special. I know some think he's a dork, but I've had private emails with him and believe you me he is on our side...
Bottom line message from tonights Part 1 is that Washington had so many laws and red tape to go through that the boots on the ground could not get OBL and his goons and 911 happened.
Sad ... sorry for your loss. The thousands of stories about people lost that day ... it's monumental.
I love Asman .. he rocks!
"And some of the dialog leading up to the hang up was cut."
I guess ABC caved. That figures.
Pacific Northwest...Just saw the first half. I thought it was excellent. And surprisingly fair.
If not for Clinton, he might still be alive.
