    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I saw Ziegfeld Girls (1941) last night. A great movie with an all-star cast- James Stewart, Heady Lamarr, Lana Turner, and Judy Garland. The three girls play showgirls in the "Ziegfeld Follies," and the movie follows their lives from the time they get the job. It is mostly a drama, and shows how...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I watched Here Come the WAVES (1944) with Bing Crosby. I loved it so much! It's a drama with some comedy, and some songs, and it was probably meant to encourage women to join the WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service), but that just makes it better. Bing Crosby plays a star...

    With all this talk about Ginger Rogers, I thought I should mention it's her birthday today! (July 16, 1911.)

    I watched The Lemon Drop Kid (1951) with Bob Hope for the second time a couple days ago.

    I saw "Nothing but the Truth" a few weeks ago, and I loved it! I've been watching a lot of Bob Hope movies recently, and love all of them. I also watched "Caught in the Draft" (1941) last week, and "Bachelor in Paradise" (1961) yesterday. We just got "My Favorite Blonde," "My Favorite Spy," and...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I just watched "The Road to Hong Kong" (1962), the last of the seven "Road To" movies with Bing Crosby and Bob Hope, and have now seen all of them. I love these movies so much! They are all excellent comedies. In order, they are "The Road to Singapore" (1940), "The Road to Zanzibar" (1941), "The...

    I've seen "A Bridge Too Far" and "Downfall" and liked both of them. I'll have to see the rest of these soon.
