Another big weekend at the movies coming up for me as I take in more Oscar hopefuls and year-end releases. Which puts me in the mind of popcorn. According to Popcorn.org the average American eats about 54 quarts of popcorn a year. That's gotta be wrong. Nobody eats that little. I take in a good 100 gallons a year at least. And so do the stars!
Joseph Cotten and Loretta Young enjoy some popcorn during a break on Lux Radio Theater where they perform the radio version of The Farmer's Daughter.

But it's not just for the movies anymore. Junior and Sissy can enjoy it at home with their friends Bud, Donna and Frankie (Frankie's kind of a fifth wheel)!

Popcorn gives the Bud the confidence he needs to flirt with Sissy.

Nowadays, no star would be seen eating popcorn out of a generic bag like Joseph and Loretta of Yesteryear. You haven't made it until you have your own film festival emblazoned popcorn tubs.
