McNeil's Movie Korner: The Shirley Jones Adjustment


"Bees can be domesticated," McNeil called to say, trying in vain to bolster his argument in a previous "post." He also wished to confirm for the record that he had mistaken Edie Adams (pictured) for Shirley Jones in the previous edition of McNeil's Movie Korner. McNeil once sat through an entire movie thinking Patrick O'Neal was Peter Lawford. By utter coincidence, we have done the same thing before, back in the old Pendarvis Building. But that doesn't make it right. Does any of this matter? I have a notion, and that notion is no. But look. What do you want from me?
