Memory is an interesting process. I remembered the panel identifying Tallulah of the Alabama Bankheads at 2 questions. In reality -- 4. She was politically active, which is no surprise given that her father was Speaker of the House in the 1930s and her uncle was a senator. Talu I think did remarkably well to live to the age of 68 given the scope of her alcohol and drug use. The next year, she made her final appearance as "Black Widow" in "Batman" and died two years later. Too bad she did take better care of herself. She would have been interesting in certain 1970s parts. Harold and Maude comes to mind.

We never missed watching What's My Line. I remember watching this episode. It is impressive how mannered, well-dressed, courteous, and polite everyone was.

Tallulah Bankhead promoted the horror movie "Die! Die! My Darling!", also known as "Fanatic". In 2010 the production of this movie was used as a setting in the Broadway play "Looped". Based on a real event, "Looped" takes place in the summer of 1965, when an inebriated Tallulah Bankhead needed eight hours to redub, or loop, one line of dialogue for the movie. Valerie Harper played Tallulah. The infamous line was: "And so Patricia, as I was telling you, that deluded rector has, in literal effect, closed the church to me." Not an easy line to learn. :)

She looks SO different than in 'Die, Die, My Darling'. It's more than makeup. It's her entire essence, her face, her weight. She was rail thin looking in the movie, but fleshy looking here, and in Batman. I suppose that's what makes a superior actress.

Makeup lighting and the camera angles all contributed to the evil ugly old character seen in the movie. At the press screening Bankhead stood up and apologized to the audience for looking like “God’s wet nurse.”

Arlene looks rather fetching in her outfit tonight.

I've never understood how a large audience can even see the tiny fleas doing their tricks in a flea circus.

Martin Gabel is getting a little old and unusually talkative for some reason here. In earlier shows, he seemed quite reserved. As always, Dorothy is an incredible player.

Louis Jourdan effectively covered up his French accent by wildly exaggerating it on April 26, 1964; it sounded about as stereotyped as Mel Blanc voicing Pepe LePew. Here Tallulah tries the same approach, but she really can't quite reach a lower register than she uses naturally anyway. No matter, it's lovely to see her here, retaining her charm and most of her beauty despite her legendary excesses. And it's wonderful to see how she is received by the audience and the panel with such affection. I hadn't seen her last films, knowing her from 1930s and 1940s movie appearances, especially "Lifeboat", and her 1952 autobiography.

What's My Line? There is a radio series, "The Big Show" that Tallulah did for two years for NBC starting in 1950. It was an attempt, a valiant one, to combat TV's monopolization of the evening hours (even though this was NBC Radio in competition with NBC TV, they thought that there was still a place for big time radio). Quoting from Wikipedia " featuring 90 minutes of top-name comic, stage, screen and music talent, was aimed at keeping American radio in its classic era alive and well against the rapidly growing television tide. For a good portion of its two-year run (1950-52), the show's quality made its ambition seem plausible". Fred Allen was on many of the programs, and legendary orchestra leader Meredith Wilson was the band leader on the show. A running gag had Wilson referring to Miss Bankhead as "sir". Check it out. It is, perhaps, an example of what radio could have been if television hadn't left much of it as beached as a whale. An indication of how serious NBC was in making a success of "The Big Show" is that they spent, reportedly $100,000 per program.

Joe Postove Well, thanks for the heads up you've given to virtually anyone else, but you're forgetting who you're talking to here. :) The Big Show is one of my all time favorite radio shows, and almost every episode that's been available in mp3 form was encoded and shared by yours truly. You couldn't really have thought I would be unaware of a radio show that featured Fred Allen in every 4th week, and had several guest appearances by Groucho every year? (Not to mention, the head writer was one of my comedy idols, Goodman Ace, though I don't expect you'd have heard of him.) I'm still waiting for more news about the second season episodes which are supposed to be getting released this month by a guy named Martin Grams, Jr. He's hard to pin down, but he said he's releasing them and I'm beyond excited about it. Up till now, there were only two episodes from the second season available, and one was incomplete.

It's interesting how the meaning of the word "animal" has changed over the past 50 years or so. You can see it here in the dispute between Martin and John over whether fleas qualify as animals. It seems that in earlier times, "animal" in popular usage meant mammals only, and it excluded fish, birds, insects, and probably also reptiles and amphibians. Today, "animal" is generally understood to include all of those groups (and perhaps others that I omitted).

Speaking of which, Stefanie Powers recently starred in a play called "Looped", which was about a true story that happened during the making of that film. During the looping process (a common post-production aspect, usually done by the original on-set actors, also known in the UK and Europe as "Post-Sync"), Bankhead was having trouble redubbing a particular word. But I have no idea what it was. Maybe epaddon would know, since he is a Stefanie Powers fan.

Martin's admiration of Dorothy is so adorable and charming. He was always on her side and in her corner. He seems like such a good man. It has been documented that the rest of the panel didn't really get along with Dorothy outside of "work" and one wonders if Arlene was secretly a little jealous of Martin's fondness for Dorothy. I sometimes wonder if it went beyond the confines of the show and they had a little secret something on the side. Arlene seems to be a little harsh and condescending at times to Martin (even in jest there is truth).

Tallulah was so beautiful, and adorable.

Interesting two shot of Dorothy and Martin at the beginning. Dorothy's movie reference is to "Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines." It is well worth seeing 50 years later. It had a theme you cannot get out of your head and used full-scale ancient flying machines.
