Dearest Dcd, I AM sorry, but yes I had my tongue firmly in my cheek. I would never intentionally upset you. Your visits here and elsewhere are like a ray of bright sunshine on a cloudy day.

Tony D’Ambra said, “Dcd, I am inconsolable – you only ’sometimes’ read my posts – how cruel!” Ha!…I don’t think so, with your “widgets” on “all” my blogs!…

D’Ambra, was your “tongue” firmly planted in your cheek!…as you wrote that comment above!…If not,
Oh! I am so sorry! if I hurt your feelings, ;) …but I think you should know me just a “little” by now and know that I would never hurt anyone feelings intentionally, especially, not your feelings.

First of all, my comment should have read…Btw, Good, thing that I sometimes go back and reread D’Ambra’s current (The word “past” shouldn’t have been used neither…) post or I would have missed your “appeal” if you will, let me refer to it as an “appeal” for this title!)(Believe me, Tony, this is true, I do “reread” your past and current post.)

The definition of the word “Cruel”
deliberately and remorselessly causing pain or anguish
bringing about pain and distress.

“Cruel” D’Am-bra, I don’t think that I am “cruel” If there was such a thing as “cruel” bones, I don’t think that I would have an entire “cruel” bone in my entire body Antonio, meaning I would never hurt you intentionally. ;)because you have always been so very kind to me and in return, I have alway tried to be very kind, caring, thoughful, gentle and compassionate toward you. Because I like the fact, that you sometimes “wear” your emotions on your sleeve…and I find that very “appealing.”
The definition of the word “Inconsolable”…
Inconsolable: so deeply distressed that nobody can offer any effective comfort.
All I can say is how do you “console” the inconsolable? especially, under this “circumstance,” but, I will give it a try!

Sam Juliano said,”Tony, I must confess that I’ve never seen BLOOD ON THE MOON! But boy it is an enticing one with the incomparable Mr. Mitchum and that Val Lewton alumni team filling the techs–Mssrs Webb, Musuraca, D’Agostino and Keller! And it has noirish sensibilities—yep this site had to have this one reviewed! I will definitely take a look at this ASAP”…
…Hi! Sam Juliano, Do ASAP mean sometime this week? or early next week? Just take a “peek” at the email that I Just sent to you!
S.J., First, “Walk Softly, Stranger, now “Blood On the Moon”
What next Sam? …What next?
Btw, Good, thing that I sometimes read D’Ambra’s past post or I would have missed your “appeal” if you will, let me refer to it as an “appeal” for this title!
Tks,
dcd ;)

Yes, this is a wonderful film, Tony, and I’m quite happy to see you focus on its many admirable attributs. I find it interesting that so many of the collaborators from Out of the Past teamed up the next year for Blood on the Moon.

I’m speechless, Sam, that you have not seen this yet! Ha, well, none of us can have “seen them all”–it’s very much worth seeking out.

Tony, I must confess that I’ve never seen BLOOD ON THE MOON! But boy it is an enticing one with the incomparable Mr. Mitchum and that Val Lewton alumni team filling the techs–Mssrs Webb, Musuraca, D’Agostino and Keller! And it has noirish sensibilities—yep this site had to have this one reviewed! I will definitely take a look at this ASAP! Another great review Tony!!!
