Gosh! It has been so long since
the last "McNeil's Movie Korner." In fact, we were starting to think that
Barry B. had
taken over "Movie Korner" duties permanently.
McNeil left a phone message yesterday. He said he had watched "the first ten or fifteen minutes" of a movie called
JOHNNY COOL and "couldn't make heads or tails of it." He wanted me to "enlighten" him. But I haven't seen it! Only McNeil can enlighten McNeil. At the end of the message he said he was calling from his car. "I'm sitting in my car looking at pictures of Jennifer Jones in DUEL IN THE SUN," he said. Rue! I detected rue in his voice. Somehow forlorn, this image of McNeil. McNeil!
