Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Anyone heard of/seen this? From Boing Boing:
After seeing Pesco's moogarific Osmonds post, I got to thinking about a terrific piece of cinematic sleaze from 1971 called Pretty Maids All in a Row starring Rock Hudson and Angle Dickinson, written by Gene Roddenberry, and directed by Roger Vadim (Brigette Bardot's svengali, over-the-top bon vivant playboy, and director of Barbarella). The lead song, "Chilly Winds," was performed by the Osmonds, and is probably their best song ever.
I can't beat Bad4Alice's description of the movie, so I'll just cut-n-paste:
The First 5 minutes of "Pretty Maids All in a Row" (1971) - Welcome to the 70's! A Teen boy seduced by a HOT substitute teacher (Angie Dickenson); a Footbal Coach / 'Counselor' (Rock Hudson) giving 'Private Lessons' to the Willing and Sexy Young High School girls - Short Skirts, No Bras, Lots of 'Bounce' and Upskirt Peeks - It makes Certain 'Things' Hard for a young highschool guy, especially the New Substitute in her Short Skirt, Jiggly Butt, and Tight Top, who 'Accidently' pokes his face with her Breasts! He has to get a Hall Pass, and 'Limp' to the Boys' Room, holding a clipboard in front of himself, for a little 'Relief'! He's about to start, when he finds a cute young girl in the next stall, Skirt Up and Panties showing - But she's having a harder day than his - She's DEAD! The movie (NOT the Clip) goes on to more girls murdered, lots of nudity, Telly Savales & James Dohan (Scotty on Star Trek) as the Cops, Roddy McDowall as the Principal. and the Osmonds singing the Theme Song! It's a Sexy Comedy/Murder Mystery -- Far Out, Groovy, and Right On!
I liked this clip for the nice '61 Lincoln Continental they showed. Oh, and the gratuitous displays of T&A are amazing in their sheer number....

The Inception game sounds awesome!
Doesn't it? Why isn't that a real game? Come on, Milton Bradley, get on this. Oh, and instead of rolling a die, you spin a top.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The lead song, "Chilly Winds," was performed by the Osmonds, and is probably their best song ever.
I've got that song! Actually I put it on my mix of early seventies pop. I can post it if anybody's interested. Close harmonies similar to early 70s Beach Boys.
For the Record: The Osmonds best song ever is "Crazy Horses."

With the kid-version of Dean Stockwell! I remember a recent interview with him where he said that he, Mickey Rooney, and Elizabeth Taylor were the last actors from that era of Hollywood still around and somewhat active.

For some reason, Brandon Lee and Heath Ledger are in similar not-yet-over categories for me.
I'd add River Phoenix to that list, but yeah.

Because books.
I can watch Brokeback and A Knight's Tale well enough now, but watching Heath Ledger as the Joker really, really hurts, still.
And who gave me an Osmonds earmworm?! "And they call it puppy loooooooove ..."

Ann, that's a ferret.
For the Osmonds, "Crazy Horses" musically. Lyrically, "Love Me for a Reason" or "The Proud One."
I find Donny's solo "Sweet and Innocent" musically irresistible until I start thinking about how young would be too young for Donny Osmond in 1971ish.
