Surely it was named after me?

Do you know....we had a cinema in my town , "The Rialto "
so famous they named a bridge in Venice after it!

Surely it was named after me?

No, no, it was the 1948 movie that was named after you:

9642
9643

Great video, Methuselah2. Thanks! It's the first time I've had the pleasure of hearing Harry Weinger's voice. Just wish the video were longer. Its all-too-short excellence has left me wanting more. [[So THAT's why they called Motown's recording studio the "snakepit" -- because of all the snake-like cables hanging from the ceiling! Cool knowledge!)

Glad you enjoyed it, Gary. I, too, was surprised by how the name 'Snakepit' came about. An interesting bit of information.
