        And when you're watching, recall after the film she married Richard Ney, the handsome young actor who played her son.

              Just a little detail. In Miniver there's a wonderful scene where her husband (Walter Pidgeon) has returned from helping evacuate the BEF from Dunkerque. She's all supportive and full of praise. And he's pretty happy with himself, too. Then he learns that while he was away she managed to disarm and capture a Luftwaffe pilot who had been shot down during the blitz. Just another day at the office for Mrs. Miniver.

                            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                              From Mashable: As the live announcer on duty at NBC on Nov. 22, 1963, Pardo was first to announce to viewers watching the network that President John F. Kennedy had been shot.
