The Green Weenie.” Thousands of words about Pittsburgh Pirates history, every day! All by Ron Ieraci. Check it out!" data-portal-copyright="" /> Here’s the Internet Archive link for tonight’s movie. Hit “play” at 7:30, and make jokes/comments as we go along! Paul Douglas (not the meteorologist) plays Billy Martin a mean cranky manager who berates and cusses out his players a lot. Janet Leigh is the reporter who challenges him to be a little bit of a nicer guy. And, with the assistance of some theologically-dubious baseball angels, Douglas is gonna give it a try. With Keenan Wynn (Requiem for a Heavyweight); directed by Clarence Brown. Brown was generally a director of lighthearted comedies (like this) and sensitive, emotionally-compelling dramas; the “kid loves animal” classics The Yearling and National Velvet were both directed by Brown. He also did Intruder in the Dust, based on a William Faulkner novel, about a proud southern Black man who refuses to grovel to White folks, even if it risks his life. Brown retired from filmaking after 1952, and refused to watch any new movie for the rest of his life (which lasted until 1987); he said if he watched any new movies, he might be tempted to un-retire. (By then he was rich from real estate.) Paul Douglas usually played tough guys or meanies. He was originally cast in “Casey in the Bat,” a Twilight Zone episode about a baseball team that gets the world’s first human-looking robot pitcher; but by then Douglas was very sick from a heart condition. (The crew thought he was hungover; nope, he was dying. His scenes were re-shot with Jack Warden.) And after his death he was replaced by Fred MacMurray for the meanie role in The Apartment. Janet Leigh would, of course, be most famous for her part in Psycho, but she could actually act, too; she’s quite good in The Manchurian Cadidate. She dialed back on taking roles in the mid-60s to spend more time with her kids. One of those kids is pretty good at acting, herself — Jamie Lee Curtis. (Janet Leigh was married to actor Tony Curtis for awhile.) Incidentally, after seeing Psycho, even Janet Leigh was scared of showers. So, in a small tribute to that… NSFW (language), but the language is no worse than last week’s movie or next week’s. Meanwhile, if you didn’t see the caption, the poster art up top is swiped from an INCREDIBLE website called “The Green Weenie” (I don’t know why it’s called that.) Thousands of words about Pittsburgh Pirates history, every day! All by Ron Ieraci. Check it out! (Why does a Pirates history website mention this movie? Because singer Bing Crosby makes a short appearance in the film. Crosby owned 25% of the Pirates.) Here again is the Internet Archive link for tonight’s movie. Show starts at 7:30! Here’s the upcoming schedule: November 28: Bull Durham (1987) About a experienced catcher and experienced groupie who teach a young pitcher a thing or two. Written/directed by Ron Shelton, no relation to Twins manager Derek Shelton… but Ron DID play on a team with Derek’s dad. Free on Plex, Pluto, Roku, and Tubi (with commercials, probably how I’ll watch it). It’s on the free library streamer Kanopy, and on library DVD (no commercials on those). December 5: A League of Their Own (1992) If we keep this going, I wanna mix in a “somewhat based on true story” movie every now and then. (It’s Hollywood, you know they never make it strictly factual.) Oddly, I’ve never seen this one. (Because Madonna’s in it, is probably why.) Free on Pluto. December 12: Major League (1989) Yes, Charlie Sheen is a jackass, and Wesley Snipes had some stupid ideas about paying taxes. But Rene Russo is cool. Plus Bob Uecker! A team’s crummy owner wants them to lose, and the players fight back by winning. I wish! Free on Pluto. December 19: Damn Yankees (1955) A long-suffering Senators fan gets an offer to magically turn into a star player and save the team; but, when you make a bargain with Mr. Applegate, the devil’s in the…

La Forêt des Enfants revient ce dimanche 23 novembre. Cet événement, organisé par Dijon métropole, est devenu un incontournable pour de nombreuses familles dijonnaises. L'initiative fêtera, cette année, ses dix ans d'existence. Cet article La Forêt des Enfants : un grand rendez-vous nature à Dijon est apparu en premier sur J'aime Dijon.

Two days ago, I turned 40 years old. On one hand, my body is feeling it. Year #39 has been challenging from a health perspective. A severe noro-virus wiped me out at the beginning of the year, my 6’8” frame finally proved too much for my lower back (though strengthening PT has helped a lot!), and I’m currently working through a shoulder issue. I’ll stop before this turns into the Billy Crystal City Slickers speech. On the other hand, I’m still the goofy kid who grew up in the 1990s mainlining movies, playing Nintendo like it was going out of style, and (of course) learning to love baseball through books, video games, and the real thing. My all time favorite flick—Back to the Future—just so happens to come from the year of my birth. A close second? The Breakfast Club (Rocky IV rounds out the top trilogy). If you’ve never seen The Breakfast Club: A. What have you been doing with your life?! (hahaha); & B. It is writer/director John Hughes at his pinnacle. The five high school students thrown together in detention proved to be templates that have never gotten stale and appeal to all generations—even ones where the fashions aren’t trench coats and jean jackets. This got me thinking: If I were to cast a MN Twins Breakfast Club, who would participate? Well, with Joe Pohlad perhaps the easiest casting in Paul Gleason’s Principal Vernon role, here are my choices to re-cast the Brat Pack… John Hughes: 80s Movie Mastermind John Hughes poses for a photo in studio during the mixing of “The Breakfast Club” circa 1985. (Photo by Lester Cohen/Getty Images)" data-portal-copyright="" /> Ally Sheedy’s Allison: Tom Kelly Extremely quirky and can’t relate to the average human. Yet, is far savvier than he lets on. I’m not sure if T.K. has ever eaten a Cap’n Crunch sandwich, but he’d definitely be in the back row muttering to himself. Emilio Estevez’s Andrew: Torii Hunter Big smile, charming personality, and the ability to relate to everyone in the room. Aggressive when he needs to be and prone to sometimes-violent outbursts (ask Nick Punto), but overall too nice of a guy to ever deny. Molly Ringwald’s Claire: Joe Mauer High school superstar and goody two shoes. Even when trying to project a tougher image, cannot manage to pull it off. Definitely the kid from the rich part of the Midwest suburbs. Drinks milk for sure.Molly Ringwald in a scene from the film ‘The Breakfast Club’, 1985.

Extremely smart and talented in his specific skill area. Always looking for a laugh. Judd Nelson’s Bender: Bert Blyleven Comes off as extremely churlish until you realize it’s all in fun. Master instigator who enjoys playing pranks or watching others squirm. Easily the most likely to start a dirty joke and not quite get to the punchline.

I would have no issues wiling away a Saturday morning with that crew!
