Yep, the whole season is on there - we spread it out over about five days or so. And I'd never read the source material, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, as did my daughter. It's magnificently done in every aspect.
Lighting Strikes Twice (1951) with Richard Todd and Ruth Roman which I quite enjoyed.. I've only ever seen Ruth Roman in Strangers on a Train, so I'm enjoying her movies as it's her day today on TCM for their August Summer Under the Stars.
Black Angel with Dan Duryea and Peter Lorre. Good, suspenseful film noir.
And now I'm watching I Wake Up Screaming with Victor Mature and Betty Grable.
FINALLY, FINALLY finished a novel I started in 2016. I went through a painful divorce, sold my house, moved, started dating, found a new love, moved again, started working on my PhD, and wrote a nonfiction book - all while dealing with chronic illness. The novel went through several drafts, and...
What am I NOT reading would be the more appropriate question. I currently am reading four or five books. But the one I'm enjoying the most is The Star Machine by Jeanine Basinger. Her writing is so compelling...it's like you're sitting down and having a conversation with her. @Fading Fast have...
Daughter and I are rewatching Supernatural. This show was so damn good for the first five seasons - started to go a little wonky after that until season 10 - and then seasons 11-15 were mostly junk (except for the Scooby Doo episode they did!). I refuse to watch the series finale which was one...
The Gray Man with Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling on Netflix. Action-packed thriller that was actually one of the best new movies I've seen in a long time. It's creepy to see the polished Captain America Chris Evans as a sadistic villain, but he does it so very well.
For classic movies, I watched...
Wanted to share with the Lounge that the National WW2 Museum in New Orleans is having a one-day symposium for a Band of Brothers actors' reunion (20th anniversary). It has been rescheduled twice due to Covid!
While the in-person event is sold out and has been for quite a long time, you can...
So I used to have these back in the late '80s and early 90s when I was in high school (I graduated in 1993). I think my mom may have sold them at some point, but I was lucky enough to find some on ebay! So! These work great for trying to get vintage-style hair.
Two Dana Andrews movies I've never see -
Assignment: Paris, a Cold War thriller that was quite good, and Sword of the Desert about Jews being smuggled into Palestine under the noses of the Brits. Also very good.
Born Yesterday with Judy Holliday and William Holden. Such a delightful movie. I love Judy Holliday!
Now watching It Should Happen to You! with Judy Holliday and Jack Lemmon.
