Dolores Hart was a young actress in the late 1950s, most famous for playing the love interest of Elvis Presley in two films, and shortly after her 10th film was released in 1963, she joined an abbey in anticipation of her monastic life as a nun. For many years I lost track of her until just a couple of years ago when a documentary on HBO brought her back into the public consciousness... or at least mine.
Twelve years doing this... still fun for me and hope it will be for you, too. The last 3 postings are displayed. After that use arrows to navigate thru all years and months of each year. It's really pretty easy. Dash off a note if something strikes your fancy or rubs up against your ire. New postings 5th, 10th,15th, 20th, 25th & 30th of month.

The Directors: Stanley Kramer
I fondly remember Stanley Kramer as the man who made message movies. He is one of those who made me pay attention to directors instead of just actors. I found his films to be entertaining with something to say, a point of view which was of a liberal bent. As a young person, I learned things about life from a few of his films. And every film he made prior to the 70s, I quite liked... with one exception.
