Hi all, I've been watching "Executive Suite" on TCM waiting for 3pm and found it a bit hard to break away from the movie even though I've seen it, probably, ten time in the past thirty or so years.
Looking forward, though, to not-Jane Austen's "Emma" as I've never seen this one.
Logging onto my old computer now, so that I have a second screen.
Executive Suite is a first rate film with all the actors in top form. I've seen it so many times, that I only watch the scenes with Stanwyck. In some ways her part is too small for an actor like her.

I love seeing these magazines from late 1931. I love stuff like that too - it's like time travel.

Yes, I had to freeze the magazine rack and see what they had back then, Vogue, Popular Science, Redbook. Wonder what happened to Emma's favorite True confessions.

The unraveling ball of yarn scene is fun...her losing her corset, etc.

If need be, she's going to borrow a nightgown from the engineer. LOL

The honeymoon was short-lived.
Poor Emma.

When did he get time to rewrite his will? Yes, he must have done it after they returned from Niagara Falls, when he was recovering.
But wouldn't she have known he was meeting with a lawyer? Why is she so surprised?

"As a lawyer I know the exact opposite. " Nice line.
