In "Topaz," loved spotting Hitchcock in his signature cameo by mtg. someone at Idlewild (this is 1962) who has flown in. Hitch did it in all films & in "Lifeboat," where cast are all survivors on boat, he pulled it off thru a photo of him on a full p. newspaper ad for weight loss — PolitiTweet.org

Tonite SW (Smarter Wife) & I watched the Hitchcock Cold War drama "Topaz" about Russians having a mole in French intelligence. To my delight, son-in-law if Agent Andres Devereaux was named @FrancoisF24. @ACraigInParis @EServettaz @ketgorjestani — PolitiTweet.org

@chrismullinexmp Do I remember '70 election: George Brown lost in a big upset, Enoch Powell won by landslide, & Ken Clarke & Winston S. Churchill won their 1st terms. I thought Labour wld win & Tories would dump Heath for Powell. AndvUK wld've been ready for "PM Powell" by '74. — PolitiTweet.org

@linderje I loved Reggie Maudlung, then Home Sec, in Carlton Club ordering a martini in mid-day. I have his bio (by Lewis Baston), which concludes Maudling wld've been PM had he & wife not drank so much. — PolitiTweet.org

Watching Hugh Grant's virtuoso performance in "A Very British Scandal," I recalled Jeremy Thorpe as Lib. ldr. & how he was likened to JFK (whom I think he came here to campaign for in '60). Tell me, friends across the pond: was he really as charismatic as he was made out to be? — PolitiTweet.org
John Gizzi @johngizzi
SW (Smarter Wife) & I watched the powerfully acted "A Very English Scandal." Hugh Grant gets 5-stars as Jeremy Thorpe. Accuser Norman Scott comes out of ct. as cheering crowd waves "I'm Proud To Be Homosexual" signs. Could this really have happened in 1979? — PolitiTweet.org

@JamesDevlin @guano_col But it was quoting from Michael J. Fox's own memoir volunteering that he didn't take medication to exacerbate the tremors because, in his opinion, that underscored attention to what the disease does. So he used Fox's own words. — PolitiTweet.org

SW (Smarter Wife) & I watched "A Very English Scandal" about Liberal Party leader Jeremy Thoroe * the events leading up to his spectacular conspiracy to murder trial in 1979. Hugh Grant was outstsnding. — PolitiTweet.org

@MarkImpomeni I also find it interesting that both Limbaugh & Winchell, as significantcas they were on radio, both bellyflopped when they tried to move to TV. — PolitiTweet.org
John Gizzi @johngizzi
@MarkImpomeni Good point. But fact remains...Winchell had most listeners in history of radio & largest-ever syndication of newspaper columns. — PolitiTweet.org

@guano_col I wld really like to see if he said that or quoted a source. He took abuse for saying Michael J. Fox stopped taking medication for Parkinson's Disease to enhance trembling-'& he was quoting from Michael's own memoir saying he did this to underscore he had this dreaded disease — PolitiTweet.org

When SW (Smarter Wife) & I met Rush Limbaugh at the WH in 2003, I told him I was a friend of @PeterKinder, his friend since kindergarten. W'out missing a beat, Rush replied: "Peter has great taste in friends." — PolitiTweet.org
John Gizzi @johngizzi
Rush Limbaugh, w. impressive 15.5 M daily listeners in 2019, nevertheless fell short of achieving his dream of the largest audience in radio history-the record of Walter Winchell, w. an estimated 50 M every Sunday in 1930's & 40's. — PolitiTweet.org

SW(Smarter Wife) & I watched the conclusion of "A Very British Coup" & enjoyed watching PM Perkins joust w. thinly-disguised Murdock. But tell me: was he actually ousted from Gov't. in a coup on Election Day? It's never really clear. @chrismullinexmp — PolitiTweet.org
