BJ’s Tombstone History Discussion Forum - Bob, I think he did actually.

Does the title "Dirty Dingus Mcgee" ring any bells? Never seen it myself, despite the delectable, late Michelle Carey being in it. The 1965 movie, the screenplay of which was written by Joseph Heller, he of "Catch-22" fame, was taken from the book "The Ballad of Dingus Magee," written by a favorite author of mine, the late, great David Markson. Sinatra plays Dingus. Carey plays Anna Hot Water. (Of course she does.)

    Jerry, you and Olds are not making my day. I do remember some of these titles. Maybe I've seen parts of them, but just blocked it from my memory. I know EVERYBODY loves RIO BRAVO, but me. Same for SHANE,... more

      I didn’t realize you were serious with your aversion to Dean Martin.

        I don't have an aversion to Dean Martin, BJ. I loved his singing, his variety show, his roasts, his Matt Helm movies, OCEANS ELEVEN, his comedies (his real comedies, not anything with Jerry Lewis. But... more

    Olds, your post forces me to publicly confess to something I'm sure anyone who has known me for any amount of time is already aware of, but nevertheless, I have tried to hide. I have no culture. I am an... more
