Still, mid-1930s-mid-1940s Crawford was significantly more attractive than early-1920s porn Crawford. The Hollywood studios knew how to pretty up their stars.

I presume Matt Farley never went to Middletown. It wasn't a terrible place, it had the fairgrounds where I saw many concerts in my childhood. It was strip malled and had the Orange Plaza Mall where I spent many hours doing absolutely nothing. Otherwise not a whole "lot going down, in middletown". Happily not living in Orange County in my adulthood

Sheesh, just glanced at the tv listings, and they're showing "30 Century Man" for like the 9th time in 6 months! Then again, I immediately switched to that channel, so I guess it's a working strategy.
