Katz is as corrupt as they come, but he's also morally confused. Like Fitz could fit in that Uncle Sam suit, please. Jessica would have loved the sexual norms of the 1970s.- Fading Fast

Ace of Aces from 1933 with Richard Dix and Elizabeth Allan Ace of Aces is a thoughtful 1930s anti-war film set during WWI. It has plenty of early talkie clunkiness, but even today, it still packs a powerful punch. Richard Dix plays a sculptor scornful of the patriotic fever sweeping the USA...- Fading Fast

It's been decades since I've read one of "The Saint" books and years since I've seen one of the movies, but "The Saint in New York" was my favorite. The book, in particular, is entertaining and, for us today, fun time travel.- Fading Fast

Alfie from 1966 with Michael Caine, Julie Foster, Jane Asher, Shelly Winters and Vivien Merchant It's not easy to make a movie that is, both, of its time and timeless, but Alfie pulls it off. Yes it captures the start of London's swinging 1960s sexual revolution, but its themes of infidelity...- Fading Fast

The Man in Grey from 1943 with Phyllis Calvert, Margaret Lockwood, James Mason and Stewart Granger The Man in Grey, from a popular novel at the time, is the movie equivalent of a page turner.

I love that book. It is a neat look into the careers of several writers I grew up reading, plus Perkins himself is an interesting man. The movie is good, too, but the book is a gem.- Fading Fast
