ReplyDeleteI leave a suggestion. Post a translate/translator as not everyone knows English. Could it be?

Friend Theodosia,
ReplyDelete“James Cagney” is another of the great artists who shone on stage and in cinema.
Another beautiful biographical highlight.
Kisses!!!
So wonderful to see your post about this star!
ReplyDeletePor las fechas en que estuvo incluido en los repartos parece ser que fue uno de esos grandes actores de la época dorada de Hollywood.
ReplyDeleteCreo que en USA solo se usáis el apellido paterno y por eso se puede llegar a tener errores al saber quien es el padre o el hijo si se le pone el mismo nombre. Aquí se usan el apellido del padre y luego el de la madre de forma genérica ya que últimamente se pueden poner en orden inverso. La mujer usa sus apellidos toda la vida.
Saludos.
Dear Theodosia, I wish you a happy end of May and a joyful beginning of June!
