We were watching It's a Wonderful Life, and he said, "Hey, Mom that sounds and looks like Kay." Sure enough, Cousin Tilly was played by Mary Treen, the lady who played the "other" maid in Goodbye, Alice, Hello.

Wow, nice catch there by your son! And there was probably about 25 years or so between Treen''s performances.

I'll have to look out for that one...haven't watched IaWL yet this year, hope to in the next day or so...time's running out!

Yeah, he surprised me. He's only 10. I think it was the voice he noticed most. Once he pointed it out, I agreed that it did sound like her so I looked it up.

Mary Treen also played the maid in "The Joey Bishop Show"

I can NEVER figure out WHY people consider "IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE" to be a Christmas movie, since just the beggining and end are set at Christmas. And at the end, they sing a New Years song!!
