Vintage shots from days gone by!

Thanks to cinemaretro, Anne Francis with "Robby"
in a publicity shot for 1956's "Forbidden Planet."



Anne's "Forbidden Planet" co-star, Leslie Nielsen, passed
on at 84 a week or two ago, which we marked here on this
thread. Photo THANKS to the WikiMedia Commons project.
For those who remember Anne, she is now 80 and survived
a partial lung removal in 2007. She's on in years but has
a fan site: annefrancis.net.

 

Charismatic Brit Tom Baker was the fourth incarnation of the BBC's
iconic, time-traveling "Doctor WHO" from 1976 through 1981. Here
"the Doctor" hangs with some of his posse, the Daleks, whose atti-
tude toward human life is simple: "EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!"
This photo is THANKS to cifthreadrefugee!

Funny how some of these pix trigger memories long forgotten. This one made me think back of the tv show "The Rebel" -- Nick Adams starred as Johnny Yuma. Still remember the theme (by Johnny Cash), even though the show wasn't aired after 1961.
