Today, TCM will honor Mrs. Shirley Temple Black in a Movie Marathon of some of her very best films! Perhaps, this is a way to say "Happy Birthday" to her in advance, since her birthday is April 23rd!
April 13, 2011 - Movies on TCM:
Little Miss Marker
... 8:15 AM(A big-time gambler picks up a young girl as security on an IOU.)
The Poor Little Rich Girl

I agree with you. I love Heidi and The Little Princess! They are the best and she is so sweet in them!
ReplyDeleteI like Heidi best. I remember it the most from seeing it years ago as a young girl. It is such an emotional heartwarming film, and it's also a bit of a Christmas Movie, too! I Luv it!
ReplyDeleteI'm receiving several e-mails, too, from blog followers who love Shirley Temple - especially in Heidi and The Little Princess.
ReplyDeleteEveryone is remarking on her great talent - with singing and tap dancing and delivering her lines perfectly on cue! She's truly incredible!
I Love All Shirley Temple Movies! She is such a Doll!
ReplyDeleteI Love Shirley Temple! I Love TCM! I Love this Blog!
