just saw new film "Making trouble" - it's a documentary about 6 American-Jewish women, all great stars of American theater and TV of the 20 century.
Sofie Tucker. She was a singer, and I love her songs (check "Some of These Days") . She was also the first one to start joking about sex on stage in America.
how about this one:
"I'll never forget it you know...I was having tea with my girlfriend Clementine one day when there was a knock on the door. I answer the door, delivery boy hands me 2 dozen roses and a note which read "Love, from your boyfriend Ernie". I say to Clementine , "Well, you know what this means, don't you? I'm going to be on my back with my legs spread for the next 2 weeks!" And Clementine says, "What, Soph, ain't ya got a vase?!!!"
I never heard about Molly Picon and Fanny Brice and they were stars on Broadway from 1920 to 1950. And they are both great.
Gilda Radner - SNL star. She was fighting her "fucker" (the way she called her cancer) with smile, and you can't forget this smile.
I short, worth watching. [Error: unknown template video]
