    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The utterly delightful and charming film, Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris, about a English widow who heads to Paris so she can buy a Christian Dior dress. Set in 1957. One of those rare films that is just perfection.

    The latest episode of Season 2 of Perry Mason. Gosh, I just love this show. The acting by Matthew Rhys as Mason is fantastic. The sets, the costumes, the story...all wonderful.

The movie starring James Stewart and Margaret Sullaven (1940) is fantastic, but apparently quite different from the book. So I decide to read the book myself. It's out of print and used copies are pricey, so I...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Everything Everywhere All At Once. What an utterly bizarre movie, yet it was so good. One of the strangest movies I've ever seen. Stellar performances by the cast, though, and they all deserve the award nominations and wins they've been receiving.

    The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society is a fantastic movie - and the book is also wonderful!

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Watch on the Rhine with Bette Davis and Paul Lukas. An incredible film (I had to buy it on DVD but TCM had it on today). North by Northwest because it was a loooooong day and that is one of my comfort movies (it was also on TCM).

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Season 2, episode one of Perry Mason. Promises to be another great story. Started watching Pennyworth, the origin story of Bruce Wayne's butler, Alfred. Quite different, but I'm enjoying it.

    Finished all 7 seasons of Shetland and really loved the ending. It was perfect. Started watching Perry Mason on HBO Max. 1932 L.A.? Yes please!

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Fourth episode of The Last of Us. And more Midsomer Murders. And more episodes of Vera. Yes, watching British murder mysteries is comforting, and as February is a hard month for me (lots of trauma anniversaries), I'm going to watch as many as I want to! LOL
