1969 I Am Lucky to Be Me
The triumphs and failures of middle age as seen through the eyes of runaway American housewife Mary Wilson Jean Simmons , a woman who believes that ultimate reality exists above and beyond the routine procedures of conscious, uninspired, everyday life. She feels cheated by an older generation that taught her to settle for nothing less than storybook finales, people who are disillusioned and restless and don't know why, people for whom life holds no easy answers.
Interestingly, Teresa Wright didn't like his directing and found it pedantic, adding, "but I can't say anything because of Jean.

After twenty years, the lust is gone from Mary Wilson's marriage to husband Fred Forsythe ; she drinks, she pops pills, and finally, after a huge spending spree, her husband takes her credit cards and charge accounts away from her. Her favorite thing is watching old movies which have happy endings; strangely, one of her favorites is Casablanca. Casablanca has a noble ending, even a satisfactory ending. But a happy ending?

I mean, Bogie ends up with Louis. Finally, Mary manages to get her hands on some money, and she takes off for the Bahamas, where she is taken in by an old school friend Shirley Jones , the "other woman" in several relationships who now finds herself involved with Lloyd Bridges, looking pretty darn good, I might add. The film seems to be a series of flashbacks and music videos; it is surprising how little dialogue there actually is.
Jean Simmons at 40 is radiantly beautiful as usual and she does a great job as Mary. Simmons was a totally underrated actress, squeezed in as she was with the likes of Audrey Hepburn and Elizabeth Taylor. Brooks again has cast Shirley Jones as a bad girl, and again, she's effective. Teresa Wright plays Mary's mother, who can't quite understand her daughter's quest for happiness. Mary wants the fairytale.
I found this film just okay, at times confusing because of the seamlessness of the flashbacks, and frankly, I got sick of hearing "What are you doing Anything with Simmons is worth seeing, but at times, this one is tough going.

Despite the fact that he had no connection with the peerage, the deed poll laws of England permitted this. Following a successful career as an early-'60s rock 'n' roll attraction, it became customary for the UK press and citizens to refer to him as Screaming Lord Sutch, or simply Lord Sutch.

Early works included recordings produced by legendary audio pioneer Joe Meek. During the s, Screaming Lord Sutch was known for his horror-themed stage show, as well as for usually dressing like Jack the Ripper pre-dating the shock rockantics of Alice Cooper by several years. Accompanied by his band, The Savages, he often started the show by coming out of a big black coffin. Other stage props included knives and daggers, skulls, and "bodies".
Sutch also booked 'themed' concert tours, such as 'Sutch and the Roman Empire', where the Sutch and the band members would be dressed up as Roman soldiers. Despite his self-confessed lack of any vocal talent, he released many horror themed singles during the early-mid 60s, the most popular and well known of which is Jack the Ripper , which the White Stripes covered in their live shows and The Horror have released.
