Talking about movies, movies, movies. I believe movies are one of the best pleasures in life. Nothing better than watching a classic film and talking with others about them. Love the classics the most but will also talk about the newer stuff too. And covering all genres: comedy, action, horror, sci-fi, drama, musicals, etc. Will also discuss TV shows, more of the classics, but occasionally the newer stuff too. And anything else that might be on my mind. Feel free to drop by and have a chat.

Carole Lombard.
Did you know...
Carole Lombard, Turned down the part of Ellie Andrews in the film, It Happened One Night (1934). Claudette Colbert, was then given the role and won a Best Actress Oscar for her performance.
Many actresses turned down that role. I still can't understand why, I just adore It Happened One Night but apparently nobody thought it was going to be successful.
I had read that Carole was one of those, what a pity! It would have been even better with her. Of course, Claudette was amazing too.
