|    Crying Uncle over "Cry Uncle"    |
|    26 Oct 22 00:10:32    |
      From: darrint68@aol.com              Has anyone else experienced the following via Xfinity OnDemand? I wanted to       watch "Cry Uncle" (1971) with Allen Garfield (b. Goorwitz), only to find a       different film plays in its place? LOL! The thumbnail and accompanying credits       clearly show Cry Uncle.        I contacted Fawesome TV, and still no response. Who's to blame? Xfinity or       Fawesome? -D, Founding Jewish Fathers of Hollywood: Carl Laemmle was born in a       small village in Germany, fled from the poverty of his background to come to       America, and founded        Universal Pictures. Adolph Zucker was born in Hungary, became orphaned as a       small child, came to America lonely, and unloved, and built Paramount       Pictures. William Fox, also born in Hungary, came to the States as a poor       immigrant selling soda and        sandwiches and working as a chimney sweeper until he one day founded the Fox       Film Corporation. Louis B. Mayer was born in Russia, fled his father's       junkyard business, and eventually headed up the greatest studio of all,       Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Benjamin        Warner came from Poland to seek fortune in America. Here he worked as a       cobbler in Baltimore, peddled notions from a wagon, and tried to eke out a       living so that he could feed his four sons, Harry, Sam, Albert, and Jack. Then       he bought a broken movie        projector and one thing led to another, until incredibly enough, Warner       Brothers was born.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
