You gotta start somewhere


A movie channel was showing a really old movie “She Done Him Wrong” or maybe it was “He Done Her Wrong”.  Well anyway, somebody did somebody wrong in the movie.
I turned it on because the listing said it starred May West and Cary Grant, and I was curious.
May West is oddly famous isn’t she?  I mean she wasn’t super attractive, she wasn’t particularly curvaceous, kinda plump actually, and she couldn’t sing.  I guess she did it with innuendo.  “Why don’t you come up sometime ‘n see me?”  One of her famous, often misquoted, lines is cute rather than sexy.  And the flirty way she pumped her hips when she said it was almost LOL.
It was too painful to watch very much of the movie.  The stilted dialogue alone was a killer.  And from what I saw, Cary Grant played a chauffer.  When he showed up in that little cap and jacket I turned it off.
