   Notwithstanding the Oscar nom, after repeated "Bus Stop" screenings over the   
   years, I've always found the handsome but late Don Murray quite unnecessarily   
   over-the-top as that yahoo rodeo character...and neither was it one of Marilyn   
   Monroe's better    
   performances, either.   (Those would be "Niagara", "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes"   
   and "The Misfits", in my view--and I believe I've seen every film she made.)   
      
   And Don Murray WAS notably one of the MANY subtle charms of the cinematic   
   iteration of Allen Drury's even better novel of U.S. Senate intrigue,  "Advise   
   & Consent".   
      
   Appreciate your posting of this, Lenona.  (Do you still ever sign your name   
   "Lenona." ?
