If you have Turner Classic Movies and you've never seen Jean Harlow take a bath in a barrel before, be sure to tune in tomorrow, Saturday, April 3, 2010 at 9 a.m. for Red Dust. I've only mentioned it tangentially a couple of times, but Red Dust will figure in the next go-round of Katie Awards so you don't want to miss out.Here's what TCM says about it:

Jeepers creepers is right, bub!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know how Gable felt remaking this as "Mogambo". If I remember correctly from what little I've read it seemed a little gruesome as Gable was the only main cast member still alive.
