  1. Dan Peggotty in #DavidCopperfield (1935), Mr. Potter in #ItsAWonderfulLife (1946) and James Temple in #KeyLargo (1948). A scene-stealer for Tod Browning as the Van Helsing-like Professor in #MarkOfTheVampire (1935) and - partly in drag - the vengeful ex-con in #TheDevilDoll (1936).

  2. #FloridaMan, on #Netflix is a typical #Swamp #Noir style, semi-#comedic #series.

    The #manatee bit in episode one is absolutely accurate, and the #LocalNews bit in episode two is only lightly exaggerated.

  3. #Hurricane

    My first was #Betsy in #1965 when we lived in #Miami, a bit Northwest of #KeyLargo where it officially made landfall in #Florida.

    These storms, even "weak" ones, are like being in an extremely wide tornado for hours, 8 or more hours is not unusual, and they can spawn actual tornadoes and tornado-like microbursts.

    #Ida reversed the course of the Mighty #Mississippi.

    I've been in and near many, and they are never fun, as some think until they experience one.
