Back then, going to the movies meant getting freebies. Movie theaters and gas stations often gave away glasses or dinnerware with purchases. My parents’ “good china” collection was built up over time that way. And then there were the S. and H. Green Stamps, collected and pasted in books, and redeemed for all sorts of things, even appliances and fine jewelry.

Doctor Zhivago is a great movie. What has always puzzled me is why do wives always identify with the mistress?
