I just watched The Life Ahead on Netflix. It stars Sophia Loren. It's subtitled but easy to watch. She's a holocaust survivor running a sort-of daycare. She forms an unlikely relationship with a bitter street kid whom she takes in after he robs her. Written/produced by her son, in what he said may be her final film appearance.
Sophia Loren is amazing in this, in all her ageing beauty. The street kid, Ibrahema Gueye, and the antiques shop owner are excellent.

I'd put movies I was interested in in a "watch list", so I was notified when they became available for either streaming or free streaming. Many services provide this. The "Roku Channel" is available online even without having a Roku streaming player. Roku Channel I would put movies you want to see in a "Watch List". Silent Running is available for streaming for $3.99 in quite a few places. There are other services that have quite a library of "free" (with ads) movies. |

. I will steal the Thread (I'm the OP), for this little tidbit. Lately, I've been in the habit of going to the bedroom about 9pm - while SHE watching more News (I've had it with news...) For the last week I've been checking out the old "Twilight Zone" series from the 60s. Night before last, watched The Twilight Zone: - The Lateness of the Hour (1960) ... INGER STEVENS played "Jana". I was taken by her pretty appearance (hey, I'm a guy...). Typical TZ "shocker ending"... I thought to myself after watching - "I need to google her to see if she is still alive - must be 90 or so". Forgot to yesterday - remembered to check just now. OMG...so sad, died at 36> Following her suicide from acute barbiturate poisoning, it was revealed that Inger had been long married (from 1961) to African-American bit actor Ike Jones. The marriage, for obvious reasons, was kept under wraps to protect her career. They were estranged at the time she died. She cheated death three times. In her first suicide attempt, she swallowed sleeping pills and ammonia which left her with blood clots in her lungs, legs swelled up to twice their size, and temporary blindness (she miraculously recovered within weeks); one time, she and Rod Steiger were nearly asphyxiated by carbon monoxide fumes while filming a scene from Cry Terror! (1958) in a tunnel (Steiger said years later she initially refused medical treatment at the scene, she said she wanted to die); and once she leaped from a crash-landing jet liner minutes before it exploded. SPOILER: One of her best remembered TV roles was the episode The Twilight Zone: The Hitch-Hiker (1960), in which she played a frantic driver who kept passing the same hitchhiker on the road ("Going my way?"). The audience later finds out the phantom actually represented Death and that she had been killed in a car accident all along. Was romantically involved with Bing Crosby during and after they appeared together in Man on Fire (1957). The relationship never led to marriage because Stevens refused to convert to Catholicism. When Crosby married Kathryn Grant, (who had converted) a year or two later, Stevens was devastated. A month after her death, her widower, Ike Jones, asked to be named administrator of her estate. Her brother appeared in court to support him, and eventually was given half of the estate. He immediately gave all the money to children's charities and mental health organizations. . .
