That Kleenex Moment

2 December 1998, 08:45 PM

At any one time the forum has 3 or 4 movie threads going, each of which must by federal statute contain at least one gratuitous reference to Ursulas' towel. What other "naughty bits" from war films stick out (

) in our minds. I nominate Susana Yorks stocking tops in Battle of Britain. OOOH EERR!

One "bit" that doesn't "stick out", of course, is the young French peasant girl's lost leg in Richthofen and Brown.

Who could forget Jean Harlow asking the immortal question, "Do you mind if I slip into something more comfortable?" in "Hell's Angels"? (Incidentally, this and other dialogue scenes in the movie were not directed by Howard Hughes, but by James Whale, who went on to make "Frankenstein" at Universal.)

I'm trying to change my image so I'm not going to contribute to this thread.
However, if I actually WERE so inclined, Susanna York's nicely-filled shirt tail in BoB would have been the first thing that came to mind. Nice call.

Barrett;
You just couldn't stop yourself could you.
Love Jeni

You guys will just have to take my word for it, but Jeni in her short cheerleading outfit makes Sueanne York look like a nun in a habit.

Have you seen Susanna York in a nuns' habit???

Richard a.k.a. Old Gray Wolf;
Now whos blushing in cyberspace. You would have to bring up nuns again! I'am going to end up having a nun nightmare before this week is up. It's ok, I know your weak point.
Love ya Jeni

Were you traumatized by a nun Jeni?
I nominate the scene in Saving Private Ryan where the infantry man goes back for his severed arm.

Yes, I remember that scene in von Richthofen verses Brown movie with the one legged French girl, but the scene I'd like to forget was the trashy tacky scene with the basketball player sized Richthofen and the bimbo at Anthony Fokker's party. Yuk! Funny right now I can only think of one film babe that is really sensual is Seven of Nine on Voyager. Somebody hand me a snowball! Jeni?
