With the Lost -- entertainers Jimmy Cagney, Maurice Chevalier, and George Burns. Pianist Artur Rubinstein. Arnold Toynbee, historian.

Did anyone see Mary Poppins Returns? I noticed two very old Silent entertainers in Angela Lansbury and Dick Van Dyke, both born in 1925. Dick Van Dyke can still dance -- at age 92, at the least. Angela Lansbury can still act. We are still talking of people on the GI/Silent cusp, people who have done what GIs did to reach older ages than any previous generation in greater numbers.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
