Drivers Education - The New Hot Topic

by Gayla on September 27th, 2007

teen-driver

It seems that since we have one teenager that is now within 6 months of turning 16, the new topic around our house is who is going to take drivers education, who is going to get a car, who is going to get a sports car…

All the while I’m sitting back wondering just when and where I was going to have a say in this matter.

While I did call my insurance company to get an actual dollar figure that nearly knocked me off my feet, I was wondering what other parents are doing about teens, drivers training and getting licenses.

Keep in mind that we have one, maybe two that will be eligable for a good student discount.

Ideas?

My thoughts of mopeds and horse drawn carriages aren’t going over very well at the moment.

    Back when this film was made in the mid Thirties there seem to be an abundance of films about madcap heiresses. In the middle of the Great Depression films about the rich partying away seemed to find an audience.

    Back then the real life model was Peggy Hopkins Joyce, today it’s Paris Hilton. We just love to read about the rich doing their reveling.

    So the premise is a bit ludicrous about Loretta Young getting very angry at the newspaper reporters for reporting on her every move. Believe me if she didn’t want publicity she wouldn’t get any. Believe it or not, then as now, there are rich people out there who are not tabloid fodder.

    But I guess anyone can get a little cranky and Loretta has come her time of crankiness in Love Is News. When an especially enterprising reporter gets on board her private plane, she’s had it. While reporter Tyrone Power thinks he’s scooped his colleagues, Young has an impromptu press conference with the others and announces she’s engaged to Tyrone Power.

    And then Power as he was in real life becomes the object of a lot of tabloid fodder. His editor is Don Ameche who keeps firing and hiring him back to straighten the mess out. If this were done at Warner Brothers, Love Is News would have been perfect for James Cagney and Pat O’Brien.

    Twelve years later Power did a remake of this same film with Gene Tierney. Hard to choose between the two which is better.

    Ty is at the beginning of his career and Darryl Zanuck was casting him in all kinds of parts, comedic, adventurous, dramatic. And Power himself was perfecting his screen image.

    Best scenes in the film involve small town judge Slim Summerville who Young comes up before for speeding and that sets up a whole bunch of funny situations.

    I can see this being remade today, unless Paris Hilton herself wants to star in it.
