I need to know where Rose-Ann went to get a bath, because there's no bathtub behind that wall. Just the washtub for the laundry and the kitchen sink.

I'm assuming that everyone watching already knows the Elizabeth Hartman story, but it is still heartbreaking every time I think about it. 😢

While Shelley Winters and Sidney Poitier are the stars of #APatchOfBlue, the performance by Elizabeth Hartman is off-the charts great (IMO). And knowing how her life went, makes this film a melancholy experience for me. So much talent.😢

"That's because they don't know you."
THERE IS PLENTY OF TIME FOR A SMOOCH IN THIS SCENE. They could have at least given us one kiss before she gets on the school bus.

On a lighter note, to 60s kids she’ll always be “Ma Parker” – her villainess role on the old Batman TV show. 😂

Wallace Ford gave an underrated performance as Old Pa. Love the scenes where he stands for Selina. It would be Ford's last onscreen performance as he died six months after the film's release. #APatchOfBlue #TCMParty

Wasn't able to watch #APatchOfBlue today, but Ms. Hartman was really talented, and it always saddens me to think what might have been. From what I've read, her issues with insecurity were debilitating. Once she had the "gig" she was fine, but putting herself out there was an issue.

Winters is so evil in #APatchOfBlue, but it's worth noting that her attitudes reflected those of many. And still do, unfortunately.

This trip to the supermarket (and Selina's discovery of some of the simple pleasures in life) is always heartwarming.
"... and in aisle 6 you and your mistress can plan to kill her husband in perfect peace and quiet!" 😂

In 1967 (The year after #APatchOfBlue), Ms. Hartman did a starring turn in Francis Ford Coppola's "You're a Big Boy Now" (a kind of "The Graduate" story) in which she plays a Tempress. And to this day anytime I go to the NYPL/42nd st. I half-expect to see her bolting through the doors.
