Happy Birthday, Gary Cooper!!

Happy 112th birthday to one of my most beloved guys---the great Gary Cooper.  (May 7, 1901 - May 13, 1961)



I celebration of this beloved man's birthday, I'll be breaking today from the films of Stewart Granger and, instead, watching one of Coop's.  Not sure what one yet; I have a couple of "new to me" Coop films on my computer, so I'm pretty sure it will be one of those.  Or maybe it will be one of my all-time faves, like Ten North Frederick or Mr. Deeds Goes to Town.  Whatever film it is, I'm sure I'll be smiling all the way through it, as I remember this very beloved guy on his birthday.

"Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them."  (George Elliot)

We have not forgotten you, dear Gary...and we never will!
