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.

Debbie Reynolds poll
My new poll for this month is about Debbie Reynolds, the classic movie goddess for the month. We all know all talented she was in the many musicals she starred in like Singin in the Rain, The Unsinkable Molly Brown, Two Weeks with Love, I Love Melvin and others. So for the poll, I decided to focus on her non-musical roles which showed that she had a great acting chops as well. My question asks what is your favorite Debbie Reynolds non-musical films. The choices are: Susan Slept Here (1954) co-starring Dick Powell; The Catered Affair (1956) co-starring Bette Davis, Ernest Borgnine and Rod Taylor; The Mating Game (1959) with Tony Randall; It Started With A Kiss (1959) with Glenn Ford; The Rat Race (1960) with Tony Curtis; How Sweet It Is (1968) with James Garner; Divorce American Style (1967) with Dick Van Dyke; and her only western How The West Was Won (1962). I know the choices are tough so I made it multiple choice. Enjoy.
Other great Debbie Reynolds non-musical films include: Goodbye Charlie, The Tender Trap, What's the Matter With Helen, Mother, In and Out, and Mary, Mary.
ReplyDeleteI will have to sit myself down with a few of these before I vote, just to refresh my memory! (I'll tell my family that I am locking myself away in the den in the name of research-LOL!)
