"Dragonwyck" & Stephen Hawking

Sunday May 2, 2010: Tonight, 2 TV selections caught my eye and may catch yours as well:

8pm ET TCM "Dragonwyck" (1946) Gene Tierney as a governess who encounters love and murder in a gloomy mansion. (with Vincent Price)

9pm ET Discovery Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking: The Story of Everything The beginning of the universe, the creation of stars and black holes, and how everything ends.

Oh boy, a movie with one of my all time favorites, Vincent Price. I'm up for this one tonight!!!

Vincent Price was rather nice looking as a younger man, eh? I watched "Dragonwyck" the night it aired, and it really was a good story. It had a bit of "Jane Eyre" quality imo.....

Once when I was a very young telephone operator decades ago, I put through a call from Vincent Price to an art dealer. (He was quite the art collector) I listened in of course. lol Mr. Price seemed like such a gentle man, not at all like some of the ruthless scary characters he portrayed.
