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.

The Morning Movie: SLIGHTLY DANGEROUS (1943)
Now playing this morning on TCM is the delightful, little seen romantic comedy Slighty Dangerous. It stars Lana Turner as a small town girl named Peggy who is bored with her life who changes her identity and heads to New York. Trouble is people back home thinks she was kidnapped or murdered and leaving her boyfriend as a prime suspect. This sounds kind of heavy and film noir but it is actually a light comedy. Robert Young, Dame May Whitty, Walter Brennan and Eugene Pallette lend their talents for a strong supporting cast. Once again Lana shows she is more than just a beautiful face as she is quite funny in this role. Things get a little dramatic towards the end but for the most part this is a sweet little movie.
