Blue _______________.

Swoop62, I looked the movie up...because I have not even seen the Brooke Shields version. She was only 14 then! However, that 1980 film is all over Google as THE one.

So I Googled more specifically, and sure enough Google dug up a film of that name which came out in 1949...for my childhood in the 1950's. I also noticed the movies were based on a novel that came out in 1908, hmmm...might be fun to go back and read that.

never knew there was another version of that and never thought about the book.  Who wrote that or I could google and take an hour or more finding it.

Hi Swoop, well I went onto Goodreads and lo and behold...here it is...
Author Henry de Vere Stacpoole, first published 1908...got to be the one. If you read it, let me know what you think!

Me too Swoop62!  I think she had to stand in a trench to be smaller than Christopher.... Ankins?  I was very impressionable when this movie came out.  I think I still have Brooke Sheilds eye brows.  Big smiles! 
It was a good movie for the age I was in. :) :)

she definitely stood out from first sight with all her features and I do mean all. :)

Now THAT is Funny!!!  Yes she did and made it so true, she is still in the tabloids every now and again. Hahahahaa!

Seen her in a commercial or in another TV series and she is still recognizable for sure.

Christopher Atkins - - and forget Brooke - - Atkins is who caught MY eye!!

This one got by me as had not heard of them. Thanks.

This song was used by Apple in a commercial for iPad. I like it a lot. :-)

Strike 3, never saw the commercial that I recall and don't have an ipad either.  Back to the cave Robin.

2010...

Appreciate the thought on that and had not seen or heard of it but will look for it and what it is about.

Appreciate the response and heard of her but not the song. More blue stuff than I thought of but still no ribbon. :)  

Swoop62... WOW!  I hadn't thought of that! Now that you mention it,  I'm surprised the competitive side has not shown through.  Excellent point!  In a way, I find it very good... This post was edited by Merlin at March 5, 2017 2:36 PM MST

So, I win. I thought of it first. let the parade begin and the confetti fly.

With sparkly confetti of blue!!  And a float with dancing penguins on one side and a very balanced passing of the egg on the other side.  Of course, the float would win the blue ribbon as well!  Hip! Hip! Hurrayyy!! :) :) 

Loved Blue Velvet. Used one of the songs from it with Roy Orbison inside one of my questions today. :-) This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at June 17, 2018 3:53 PM MDT
