I saw Mary Poppins in London just before COVID lockdown, and out comes Petula Clark singing "Feed the Birds". I spontaneously burst into ugly tears because I had no idea she was in the cast and both she and the song were big parts of my childhood. I think that may have been the campest moment of my life.

Just a few weeks ago, all three of these women were still alive, and all over ninety!
The old man digging the grave in the beginning is Boris Karloff, by the way.
(If you've never watched this, please do--it's really fun. I think it's from The Garry Moore Show circa 1964 or so.)

R111, I just watched Peggy Dow as a double-dealin’ dame in Woman in Hiding staring Ida Lupino. (Currently on Criterion as part of a Gothic Noir series.) She was great! She retired shortly after this film when she landed an oil baron.
When I looked up the cast, I was stunned to see Peggy Dow will be turning 96 in a couple weeks. Then I wondered if she’d been added to this nonagenarian list.
Of course a gay was already on the job!

For some reason as a kid watching old movies on TV I really liked Peggy Dow. I think because I was a little kid, I loved the one where she played a reincarnated horse, opposite Dick Powell. I don't remember the name. Then I saw her in Harvey, and a movie about the home front during the Korean war, called I Want You (with some bigger stars, Dorothy McGuire, Dana Andrews, Farley Granger). Years later I looked her up and was surprised her career was so short.
