Today Is A Special Day!

Today is Fredric March's birthday!


Last year, coinciding with TCM programming and my own personal collection, I featured a full month of Fredric March. It was fantastic and draining. My friends thought I was a bit nutty! But I LOVE Fredric March! I got to read the one and only biographical book there is on him, listened and read interviews he gave, looked into his history on the stage and watched a varied collection of his work (not all- I like to spread him out!). I meant to start up a site dedicated solely to him, unfortunately, real life seems to always get in the way.

That being said, I will not be dedicating a full month to him this time around but instead encourage you to click on his mug over here- that will take you to Matthew C. Hoffman's FB page dedicated to him (you will be quite impressed with the photo collection!)

OR click on the March tag at the bottom of this entry to see all there is I have to provide on this wonderful, seriously underrated classic film god star!

ENJOY!!
