"Nova Scotia’s Harold Russell is the only person to win two Oscars for the same role. The movie was, The Best Years of Our Lives.
Harold John Russell was born in North Sydney, Nova Scotia, in 1914. After his father died in 1919, Harold’s family moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts, where his mother trained to be a nurse. Intending to found a hospital in Cape Breton, she planned to return to Canada with her three sons once qualified. In the end, however, the family remained in the United States. When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbour on December 7, 1941, Harold Russell immediately enlisted in the U.S. war effort. Russell became a paratrooper and a demolition school instructor. It was during an exercise that an explosive blew up in his hands. He spent weeks in a hospital. The army was in the process of commissioning an instructional film, Diary of a Sergeant, to inspire amputees to overcome their disabilities and picked Russell. Film director William Wyler saw a screening of Diary of a Sergeant. As the young director watched the fresh-faced Sergeant Russell cheerfully negotiate day-to-day tasks with his hooks, he was struck with an idea. They had trouble casting for the movie, The Best Years of Our Lives, and when Samuel Goldwyn saw Russell in the training film, he immediately cast him for the role. The movie also starred Fredric March and Myrna Loy." Got this from a group online. The picture didn't come through but was of a smiling Russell clutching two Oscars in his 'hooks'. |

Hopefully you're getting out and about on your new boat and visiting some of these places. It's a lot more interesting than insulting people you don't know on the internet. |

The small lighter balls would be right up The John's alley. If memory serves, candlepin balls are smaller and the pins are narrower in diameter. It's been a long long time since my girl cousins cleaned my clock in candlepins. Candlepins were a mostly northern New England kind of thing. Of course, Johnny might not be able to see the candlepins without a pair of binoculars. |

The movie was, The Best Years of Our Lives. Harold John Russell was born in North Sydney, Nova Scotia, in 1914. After his father died in 1919, Harold’s family moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts, where his mother trained to be a nurse. Intending to found a hospital in Cape Breton, she planned to return to Canada with her three sons once qualified. In the end, however, the family remained in the United States. When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbour on December 7, 1941, Harold Russell immediately enlisted in the U.S. war effort. Russell became a paratrooper and a demolition school instructor. It was during an exercise that an explosive blew up in his hands. He spent weeks in a hospital. The army was in the process of commissioning an instructional film, Diary of a Sergeant, to inspire amputees to overcome their disabilities and picked Russell. Film director William Wyler saw a screening of Diary of a Sergeant. As the young director watched the fresh-faced Sergeant Russell cheerfully negotiate day-to-day tasks with his hooks, he was struck with an idea. They had trouble casting for the movie, The Best Years of Our Lives, and when Samuel Goldwyn saw Russell in the training film, he immediately cast him for the role. The movie also starred Fredric March and Myrna Loy." Got this from a group online. The picture didn't come through but was of a smiling Russell clutching two Oscars in his 'hooks'. You reckon he got his kicks using 'merica as a slur? Doubt it. After living the horror of a life in Nova Scotia he loved his new home in America so much he joind the Army and fought for his country. How many Nova Skotiacans do that? Only the very smart ones. hey Justine and JohnnyMop..... Nova Scotia may be no country for gitliemen...especially 'merican ones but we do have our charm. "I don't know about that, Donnie... according to your own Chronicle Herald, Halifax has a higher percentage of gay couples than either Toronto or Vancouver." Now you've done it. Justine and The John will be on the next plane up here looking for love in all the wrong places. Another homophobe comment Donnie? Thought you liberals were all for the LGBTQZP crowd. |

They are notorious for their use of violence and a subcultural moral code that predominantly consists of merciless revenge and cruel retributions. The traffic congestion there has to be seen to be believed. About a mile north of Johnny's house is the most heavily traveled patch of the Washington, D.C., Beltway, which is bumper to bumper most daylight hours. Smells terrible there with all the vehicular exhaust. |
