WILLIAM H. POWELL

I absolutely love this man. He is what I call the last of the true gentlemen. Men like him, I do believe, don't exist anymore.
I also love old movies, especially movies with Clark Gable, Myrna Loy, William Powell and

Jean Harlow or Carole Lombard.

William & Carole from "Man of the World - 1931

William and Carole, the married couple

What a woman!!!!

"Thin Man" movies are my favorite! Clark and William are the best! Those were the days!!

Bill and the love of his life, Jean Harlow

The greatest couple in the world: "Nick & Nora Charles", oh! and "Asta"!

Here are a few sound wavs from my favorite movies: "THE THIN MAN" films.

"Goodbye, Sugah"
"Ahhh, bullseye!"
"You're my favorite woman!"
"Made any New Year's resolutions?" "Not yet, any complaints or suggestions?"
"Ah, you don't need mystery. You have something much better!"
"Here's another one of those call Long Island operator # 15, dontcha think you oughta call?..."
Bill with Jean Harlow in a photo from "Reckless".

"Philo Vance", an early photo of Bill.
The "Charles" family
Doesn't he look like Tom Selleck in this photo?

Carole & William

"Nick and Nora Charles"




These are two of my favorite photos of Carole. She was a pistol, just like me! Right photo: Carole with her pets. Left photo: Her Christmas card from 1928.
The True GentlemanWilliam Horatio Powell July 29, 1892 - March 5, 1984
"He was a brilliant actor, a delightful companion, a great friend, and, above all, a true gentleman, with those often attributed but seldom possessed qualities: great style, class, breeding. There's nobody like him. There's never going to be anybody quite like him. I miss him more than I can say."

Myrna Loy, at the time of William's death
