Oh no, don't get me started on the Bob 'n' Cyril dynamic! Did you really notice that hair-pulling contest on your own? I swear I must have mentioned it somewhere before. They are so cute together in that movie, aren't they? I especially like the part where they're fighting over the deck of cards too. (Heck, I love Cyril Cusack; he's adorable. His hair does look ever so fun to play with in that movie. How could *anyone* resist!)
Hmm, I'll have to pay attention to him twisting Shel's collar; I'm normally more attentive when it's a woman he's roughing up (apart from his four-part wrestling match with the lovely Emlyn Williams, in which they take turns roughing each other up). I must be kinky, but I want to be Deborah Kerr when he's pulling her hair in "Major Barbara"! (He's so handsome in that movie too.) And then there's "Kiss the Blood Off My Hands" when he's about to attack Joan Fontaine. And lucky Kay Walsh in "Oliver Twist" when she's battling him trying to get out the door at Fagin's place ... but it wouldn't be so much fun doing multiple retakes, I imagine, when your husband's the director!
See, I told you not to get me started! I'm supposed to be all sedate and webmasterly. (Sorry for the lapse, I'm really tired and high on painkillers. You caught me at a weak moment!)
And, yes, there used to be menfolk around these parts, Elizabeth (in fact, it seems like there used to be more men posting than women) ... so we don't want to go too fangirly here and scare them all away now! Not that any guys have posted in a long time. Hey, where'd you all go? Is it the password thing?
Anyway, do let us know how many arm-whacks you spot. He definitely does it to Connie Gilchrist a few times too. It's hard to imagine the script would be that specific, and he's too consistent about it from film to film, which makes me pretty certain that's *his* mannerism and not part of the script. (But like I said, not totally unique since I distinctly saw Emlyn do the exact same thing at least once in JI. I think it's just before he and the rest of the gang go running down the cliff looking for Bob and Maureen. Not to be confused with his not-so-friendly whack across Bob's face later on
