When the movie Always (1989) came out we loved the movie and the song “Smoke gets in your eyes” by the Platters.  So the song became our song. The song was first used in the film Roberta (1935). Always was filmed in Montana the year we had a lot of fires. The movie is a remake of “ A Guy Named Joe” (1943).  The movie Always was also the last time we saw Audrey Hepburn. The movies are close to each other including some of the names. The story: “A Guy Named Joe” When adventurous World War II bomber pilot Pete Sandidge (Spencer Tracy) dies in an aerial attack after ordering the crew to safety, he meets "the General," a legendary dead pilot who assigns Pete to return to earth as a guardian angel for a new pilot named Ted Randall (Van Johnson). But when Pete learns that Ted is dating Pete's former girlfriend, Dorinda Durston (Irene Dunne), he must set aside his jealousy and prepare Ted for a dangerous bombing mission. “Always” Aerial firefighter Pete (Richard Dreyfuss) risks himself and his vintage World War II airplane in a constant and death-defying quest to fight forest wildfires, much to the dismay of his girlfriend, Dorinda (Holly Hunter). His love for Dorinda and the advice of fellow pilot Al (John Goodman) convince Pete to give up his perilous career, but he flies one last mission. Pete heroically saves Al's plane from certain destruction, but with supernatural consequences.  Fun Movie Facts:

Royal Carriage Actress Lady Joan’s recent movie release, Royal Carriage, is her latest Academy Award winner. The story, set in the ficticious country of Sunderland, is a true tale of romance and intrigue. The richly carved and decorated royal carriage used to transport the adored reigning monarch in her travels around her kingdom has been stolen by a neighboring country’s royal family. The carriage has a rich history of being the main transportation for the royal family for more than 4 generations. Queen Marianna is indignant over the theft and determined that she will recapture the carriage and bring it back to its rightful place in her kingdom. Without notifying any of the royal advisors, Hazel Madison, played by Lady Joan, hatches a secret plan to disguise herself and travel to the offending country to find and steal back the royal carriage. Maureen O’Hara plays Isabella, the queen of the evil neighboring country. Gene Kelly is cast as the Duke of Rothwell, a swashbuckling spy who works for both countries, but Hazel convinces him to aid her in capturing the carriage. The story has many twists and turns, finding Hazel in danger of being discovered and possibly imprisoned by the evil monarchy. She manages to befriend some country folks who assist her in getting to the proper locations at the very best time to steal the carriage back. After sword fights, a dangerous chase through country roads and thick forests, Hazel manages to make it across the border to her kingdom and reclaim the carriage for the kingdom of Sunderland before war breaks out between the two countries. The movie was filmed throughout the beautiful countrysides of the British Isles with the forest scenes using the Burnham Beeches. The cast of characters includes Errol Flynn as Paul Winchester, Thelma Ritter as Marion and Eve Arden as Jane. Also receiving an Academy Award for this motion picture was won by Lady Joan’s husband Lord Ray for Best Cinematography.
