Top Twelve Tux Moments

Happy New Year's Eve! In honor of the new year, I'm counting down Franchot's Top Twelve Tux Moments in his film and television appearances.

12. Placing a high stakes bet in Twilight Zone: The Silence, 1961.
11. Supporting the relationship between a frail Margaret Sullavan and friend Robert Taylor in Three Comrades, 1938.
10. Mysteriously lingering in a doorway in Phantom Lady, 1944.
9. Giving Jean Harlow quite a performance in Bombshell, 1933.
8. Dodging a lion in his hotel room in Fast and Furious, 1939.
7. Longingly looking at Joan Crawford in Sadie McKee, 1934.
6. Walking toward a singing Deanna Durbin in His Butler's Sister, 1943.
5. Facing Joan Crawford and Robert Montgomery in No More Ladies, 1935.
4. Defending himself under scrutiny in The Unguarded Hour, 1936.
3. Falling in love with Constance Bennett all over again in Moulin Rouge, 1934.
2. Entertaining Joan Crawford in Dancing Lady, 1933.
1. Gazing at Loretta Young in Midnight Mary, 1933.

Franchot wears many a tux in many a film, so it was a bit of a challenge to pick my top 12. Wishing you a safe and happy New Year's Eve and all the best in 2016!
