Melody Time

This is absolutely precious, no two ways about it.
I have a feeling Bobby had great fun in particular filming the part where he tosses the lasso onto Luana Patten.  Mischievous boy…

Am I the only person who wonders if Luana harbored any tender feelings toward Bobby for their childhood spent together?  Luana died quite a few years ago, so we can’t find out now, but I find it so hard to believe she never talked about him during her life.  Maybe, like I hear so many people – particularly young actors say – she just really doesn’t remember alot about that time in her life.

Anyway, enjoy!

Toasted Coconut Eyes & Whipped Chocolate Hair

Hope everyone can see these btw!  They’re from a magazine I got on ebay.  Aren’t they sweet?  Bobby was about 17 here.




My favorites here were the skating pics ^^  Lil Bobby looked so dapper in his white shirt and vest, and he was quite the gentleman holding onto Natalie that way while she “supposedly” learned to skate (yeah, so alot of this was staged I’m sure, but who cares, it’s adorable).  Let’s get a close up of that!



Sleep well on that note!

The Happy Time, The Happiest Pictures

So.  Even tho I don’t fancy Bobby in the romantic way here since he was just like 15, I find that these are two of my favorite pics of him at this age in The Happy Time.  The precocious expression he wears in the top pic is unparalleled, and the bottom one just really illustrates his profile well.  Any of the rest of you wish there were half as many pics of him as a grown man as there are of him as a kid?

Either way… if you haven’t seen this movie, go watch it too.
