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.

New Poll Started
For the month of May, the poll asks the question what time period of Bette Davis career do you enjoy the most. The selections are the 30's, the 40's, the 50's and the 60's. The poll will be open all month long.
Bette is in my tops too! Such a versatile actress, she was not afraid, like most of her contemporaries, to look less than perfect or age in front of the camera.
My vote for the best actress of her day -- and the most daring! Hell who else would have taken on Baby Jane Hudson? Plus, remember how she transformed herself in Mr Skeffington? This was a woman who was willing to sacrifice her looks for her craft and thus in my opinion, redefined the term "leading lady."
