Tuesday, November 30, 2010 – Haunted Of Course

Of course Hollywood is haunted –

Of course the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel is haunted. Room 928 is where Montgomery Clift lived for three months in 1952 while filming "From Here to Eternity" – they say he restlessly paced his room and the corridor outside, rehearsing his lines and practicing the bugle, and they say that he still does. And people still see Marilyn Monroe in a round mirror off the lobby. The place looks haunted –

And Grauman's Chinese Theater across the street always looks haunted –

Ah, here’s the late Marilyn Monroe, in wax –

And a universal question –
