I'd love to hear yours.<br /><br />I love Charles Lane, too. I especially love that as he approached his 100th birthday he was still looking for work. I wish a guy like Lane would have thought to write his memoirs. We have many movie star biographies and autobiographies, but very little about what the careers of the character actors were like.<br /><br />"I Can Get it for You Wholesale" was also a Broadway musical in the early 1960s, which gave Barbra Streisand her start as the office receptionist, "Miss Marmelstein".

But you know...Charles Lane, Matinee Idol - HAHA!!!<br /><br />But you know I love the man, always have, always will.<br /><br />I've never seen this movie, Jacqueline, though I've heard of its title in more ways than one. Wasn't there a Broadway show with this title. Maybe based on the movie....? Or vice versa.<br /><br />I actually worked for several years in the garment district of NY. You practically tripped over all the garment racks being shoved across the sidewalks. It was a bustling area then.Unfortunately, I ran into a guy who who liked to put his hands on the women who worked for him - as in this movie.

I think we should make her the poster child for Labor Day. Or Labour Day.Jacqueline T.
