The always-adorable Myrna Loy stars in
this 1939 De Soto ad. It mentions that Ms. Loy's next film will be
Another Thin Man. I'm always up for watching a Thin Man movie and I couldn't for the life of me find the
"Movie of the Week," Zaza, starring Claudette Colbert and Herbert Marshall (anyone know if it even still exists?). So, I got
Another Thin Man from Netflix and had a thoroughly good time. Sure, the plot is a bit convoluted, but William Powell and Myrna Loy are as charming as ever. Definitely recommended.
You'll have to pardon me for not testing
this week's Baker's Chocolate recipe myself. Paul's grandmother isn't doing well and we're going to visit her in the hospital today. I'm not sure what our plans will be for the next few days, so I didn't want any leftovers hanging around the house if I could help it.
However, the Delicious Chocolate Cottage Pudding does indeed sound delicious. If you try it out, please let me know!
Love those old school actors - so elegant. I haven't heard of a De Soto since Happy Days! The pudding sounds delish. Hope Paul's grandmother gets well soon.
ReplyDeleteMyrna Loy is fabulous in the ad and in her still! Maybe I can get your Dad to try out the pudding!
ReplyDeleteLove Myrna. My uncle was friends with her in later years. Hope your husband's grandmother is on the mend soon!
ReplyDeleteI want to try that pudding!
