Happy Thanksgiving Charlie Brown

I've never outgrown the Peanuts and now me and my son both sit there laughing, priceless indeed.

I haven't either. I have most of the holiday ones. When I first got them, it amazed me how much was cut out for commercials...I mean time allotment...when they ran on tv. The Christmas special will always be my favorite.

I was just talking last night, after it was over of course, about how fast, or short, they seem without commercials. I have the box set with the Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas specials. Each one also has an additional program. After the Thanksgiving special there's the Mayflower history lesson ala Peanuts style.
I was born on Halloween so I've always favored that special.

Buck Privates with Abbot and Costello. Some great stuff in that one.

Interesting movie about a little known aspect of the trench wars in WW1. Very interesting and well done, it reminded me of some of the best Australian movies of the 1980's, Breaker Morant and Gallipoli about the Australian WW1 experience.

Ronin
Robert Deniro and Jean Reno are excellent together and great chase sequences, John Frankenheimer did it better than anyone and they were far more believable than the fake junk set up these days.

Love this one! So much fun.

Definitely.

I love Abbot and Costello's stuff but have noticed that most females could do without them.

Dunno, Lou sure got his share of the dames!

The same is true for the Marx Brothers and the Three Stooges too though. It is a mystery.

Dunno, Lou sure got his share of the dames!

And he married well in the end.

Jimmy Chan: Watch out, Pop, he's oily and slippery.
Charlie Chan: Slippery man sometimes slip in own oil.

 

[WH1]

Best bits in Buck Privates are "the clubhouse", the Andrews Sister performances particularly the bugle boy sequence, and the weapons drill. Bud was one of a kind and he was "a bad boy" line always cracks me up!

 

[lolly_loisides]

Round Midnight. I haven't seen it in years, I forgot how good it was.

 

[Tomasso]

Not a movie per se but eminently watchable.

Brideshead revisited is one of my favourite British mini series ever (the book's pretty good too )

They used much of the top notch talent from that age in their movies. Remember "Is Everybody Happy?"
