Whoops! I didnt expect it to be almost April by the time I finally got around to writing about the movies I watched in February! I guess its a good thing Im writing everything down or I totally would...
Millie has been pestering me for THREE YEARS about watching The Black Swan. Every time she brought it up, I resisted and after about 20 more minutes of pestering she moved on. I thought I was safe. T...
When I was little, I can remember watching The Time Machine with my dad and absolutely hating it. We thought the Morlock scenes were really stupid, and for years we made fun of the movie so much that...
I thought it would be fun to totally rip off sort of copy Millies 2011 in film series and keep track of my own movie viewing in 2012! I didnt get to watch as many movies in January as I originally pl...
Unfortunately I havent had the chance to watch any new movies/tv shows in preparation for the Bradford Dillman Blogathon: A Jazzier Kind of Noir so instead my contribution is these scans. I purchased...

I recently purchased a couple of original proof sheets from a Sunday in New York promotional photo shoot, and scanned them for my Classic Film Scans blog! The one above is my favorite, but theyre all...
The Girl with the White Parasol has a little movie meme for New Years and I thought it would be fun to participate! I havent done one of these in a while (I think the last one I participated in was t...

A little video I put together with classic film clips, featuring Christmas-y and winter-y scenes! I had so much fun making this!! Ive actually been planning on making a video set to this song (Goldfr...
One of the reasons I stopped blogging here for a while was because I was finding it so hard to think of something to say after I watched a really good film. Id know it was good, Id feel completely mo...
As part of my lifelong mission to convince the world that James Mason was a lovable sweetheart in real life, and not at all like the creeps he portrayed in movies such as Lolita and Georgy Girl, I pr...
As I walk by my record collection I can see his eyes peering up at me, hypnotizing me, calling me to pick up his record and listen. I shift my focus to avoid eye contact, grab my Marianne Faithfull B...
My *incredibly* last minute submission to Project Keaton! I had meant to do a full post on the film Limelight to go along with this but Ive just been so insanely busy this month I thought a little dr...
This tribute is so long overdue.. Sunday in New York is my absolute favorite film of all time! I know Ive mentioned it on here countless times, but somehow I never made a tribute video until now. If ...
I dont remember what the movie was, but when I was a little girl I caught part of a horror film that my parents were watching. It was from the 1960s or 70s, and all I remember was a dead body hanging...
Ive been re-watching a lot of my favorite Cliff Robertson movies this week. Im having a tough time accepting the fact that hes gone... I never saw any of his later films, so to me he was still a youn...
First Ill just get this out of the way real quick... yes, Im blogging here. On the blog that 9 months ago I said Id closed up forever. I just dont feel like Im able to sufficiently write about movies...

Susannah York passed away yesterday, after just celebrating her 72nd birthday. When celebrities who hail from the world of classic film pass away, I dont usually find myself incredibly devastated .. ...

Does this song fit the movie perfectly or what?! Sorry to be posting so many videos here lately, but Im enjoying making them and cant help myself! :)
A new tribute I made for Dana Andrews. I wanted SO badly to include clips from My Foolish Heart, but the only copy I have was recorded from TCM in SLP mode so it looked super pixelated when I copied ...
My most popular post in the history of Silents & Talkies is my Is That Mustache Really Necessary? post, and understandably. Its like a car accident -- you just cant look away. The mustaches are a...
Breakfast at Tiffanys was on TCM last week, and so I watched it for the bazillionth time, as usual. However, during this particular viewing I realized something that I hadnt before. I could care less...
