OMG! That shot of the soldiers walking down the sidewalk with streetlamps, oh my.
I didn't know I was such a Harry Stradling Sr. fan but I see his name attached to many of my favorites.
Multi-Academy Award-nominated cinematographer (13 in all), Harry Stradling was unique in that he established his reputation both in America and in Europe. He was the nephew of Mary Pickford's cameraman Walter Stradling, who provided the connections for his first job in Hollywood.

It's a little squishy, but hard to believe this entire family is surviving on Rooney's salary at the telegraph office. I guess Van Johnson is sending his pay home, so maybe combined it's enough.

Hmmmm, someone just threw cold water on my face!! Details, details. I already had to ignore that fact that Mrs. Macauley has basically a toddler in Ulysses.

I don't know what is more touching - what I am watching on screen or reading in background information:
The Librarian: Adeline De Walt was born one of 10 children during the American Civil War. One of her earliest memories was of Union soldiers returning from the war. She had wanted to be an actress since she was five years old, but her father - Jonathan DeWalt, a farmer - was opposed.

I got a good laugh when the neighborhood boys called Ulysses by the nickname Useless.
That is so not right, on so many levels.

Calling Ulysses "Useless" is such a young boy thing to do.

That is so not right, on so many levels. Great minds thinking alike and all that.
