Happy (Belated) Birthday

I can't believe I forgot his, but yesterday was Van Johnson's 88th Birthday.

So here's an picture of Van that I got from the V-Jo list-serv I joined. (Yes, people still do care about him!) Enjoy him in all his boy-next-door glory.

Sadly, Van didn't make the cut in TCM's Summer Under the Stars, but you can catch him with co-star favorite Esther Williams. Three great Van-Esther movies are being shown on August 30 -- including one of my favorites, Duchess of Idaho as well as two I haven't seen, Easy to Love and Thrill of a Romance. Next Monday is a great day for Van watching!
