The 1960’s is my second favorite decade in terms of film. Just behind the 1930’s, when screwball comedies, my favorite genre, were at their zenith. I plan to do a six part series in July discussing that wonderful decade. Breaking down my favorite films, TV series, actors, actresses, directors and so on. Plus giving my thoughts on that decade in general. It will be my main feature for the entire month of July. I hope everyone will stop by and spend some time with me talking about All Good Things, 60’s style. The decade that changed everything from music to clothes to film. It will be the summer of love and fun. James Bond, Cleopatra, Natalie Wood, Valley of the Dolls, Paul Newman, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Sharon Tate, The Graduate, Beach Blanket Bingo, British "Kitchen sink" films, That Girl, Elizabeth Montgomery, I SPY, The Wild Bunch, Raquel Welch, Julie Andrews, Bullitt, Gilligan's Island, Dr. Strangelove, Elvis, Ann-Margret, Dean Martin, Star Trek, Hammer Horror Films, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, Psycho, The Avengers, Brigitte Bardot and tons more. In fact the more I think about it, it may take more than six parts to tell the tale. We'll see, but I promise it will be a fun ride. But I will have some support from my best friends and co-bloggers Dawn and Irene, who plan to help with the festivities.
What a coincidence! I was just writing down some thoughts yesterday for a 60s post. I can't wait for July! *cough*theApartment*cough*
ReplyDeleteThis will be great! An awesome decade!
ReplyDeleteI think it will be "groovy".
ReplyDeleteI am not entirely familiar with the 1960s decade, as with the 1970s, but I am being introduced to more and more... It's different from the earlier decades, drastically different, but I like several movies from the 60s :) I almost jump for joy at the picture from The Apartment. It's impossible not to like that movie!! :D
