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.

Happy Birthday Lana Turner (1921 - 1995)

Happy Birthday to the fabulous Lana Turner. Often viewed based on her stunning looks, Turner still managed to give some note-worthy performances in such films as Ziegfeld Girl, The Postman Always Rings Twice and my personal favorite of hers, Imitation of Life.

Lana certainly had her moments but she was an asset to Hollywood during the peak of her stardom.
