ALL GOOD THINGS

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.

Desiree said...: I see your comment, Irene, and I should take that advice! I actually have only seen 1 of the films you listed here. Uh-oh, I better watch some of those others... haha!; June 21, 2011 at 11:33 AM
Irene Palfy said...: Now I am interested, Desiree: Which one have you seen?; June 21, 2011 at 2:18 PM
Desiree said...: Irene, I've only seen The Producers :); June 24, 2011 at 4:03 PM
Irene Palfy said...: Ah - I see! Thank you for telling me! ;"); June 24, 2011 at 7:06 PM
Desiree said...: Wish I could see if someone replied to a comment of mine. I just saw that on accident... which of those others do you recommend the most?!; June 25, 2011 at 8:40 PM
Irene Palfy said...: ooh - that's a good question.. hm.. I might do a short series on my blog to present these films..

- I love all of them for different reasons.. but maybe THE BOAT THAT ROCKED the most - because it's just fun - and good music - and the 60s - and.. Just love it.

A very close second would be GOSFORD PARK - very sophisticated, bitchy and so many details that you have to watch it several times - and you'll explore new things every time you watch it!; June 26, 2011 at 2:04 AM
Desiree said...: Thank you, Irene, for the response :) I think The Boat That Rocked sounds like fun. I'll be sure to look out for that one!; June 26, 2011 at 2:59 PM
