It's just a fictional movie. Dr. Zhivago was a terrific book and movie, though the movie differed from the book, and neither really depicted the level of horror of the first few years of communist rule in Russia. Speaking of Dr. Zhivago ... The movie came out when I was living in Connecticut. I was "exploring" at the time, dating different girls every week or so. All they wanted to do was see "Dr. Zhivago". I must have seen it 5 times in 3 months. |

I must have seen it 5 times in 3 months. I read the novel for a 10th grade book report for my favorite teacher of all time, Mrs. Emma Ruff. She loved the report, and gave me an A+. Some years later, she became principal of the school. Her husband is a world-famous musician and is on the Yale faculty, or was the last time I checked.

Catchy tune from that movie... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Yd2PzoF1y8 Got stuck in New York overnight with wife and kids (on way to Disneyworld) way back in the early 90's. A guy in tux and violin played this at our dinner table. |

Now it's stuck in my head for the rest of the day. Thanks a lot ! :-) |

Got a kick out of the scene where the Dr and his family Arrived in the frozen Sumner home.
In a similar situation, My buddies and I went out to a camp after midnight fueled on cheap bootlegger wine. There were two double beds to hold six of us and the frost was about an inch thick on the bedspread. I worked until 5 to unthaw the small oil stove. Didn't sleep much that night due to a lot of gunplay inside the cabin initiated by me. No campers were hurt in the mayhem...the cabin wasn't so airtight after that. |

I've heard the word 'dethaw' and wondered about it also. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |

That would be my guess. Like in, "Let's go ice fishing, the lake is unthawed!" John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |
