“…and from that day forward he was a better man, for he always remembered the holiday was about giving tanks.”

God bless, everyone.

    Is that Nancy Reagan ?

    Yes, eventually. I believe she was still Nancy Davis at this point.

  • Interesting choice for the day. Happy Thanksgiving, gang!

  • Officially, I think only once, although the same/similar story has been done a few times. (I can’t be sure if THE MONSTER AND THE GIRL was officially based on the novel or not.)

    If anyone doesn’t know, the movie was “Donovan’s Brain”, and based on a novel of the same name by Curt Siodmak. A two-part adaptation of the novel starring Orson Welles from the radio show “Suspense” can be found at Internet Archive, either in the collection of “Suspense” episodes, or in a collection of Welles’s “Suspense” appearances. A search for “Orson Welles on Suspense” finds the latter, and that collection also has a parody version of the story starring Welles from another show.

    To judge by Wikipedia’s summary of the novel the radio version changed the end, which I would not have guessed.
