      Excellent! Looking forward to this. Genvieve Bujold is underappreciated, would you agree? I recently saw her in “Still Mine” with James Cromwell. She’s fabulous in that film.

    I must say, Ruth, that I’m still smiling having been reminded of Lee Marvin’s roles in Cat Balou. That movie has remained a personal favorite all of these years and now I feel I must watch it yet again. Never will tire of it. 🙂

      Ack, I’ve never seen that film, but based on your comment and the review, I’ve moved it to the top of my Must Watch List. Besides, what’s not to like about Lee Marvin?
