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: Only Two Can Play (1962)
I usually catch a movie on TCM before leaving for work. This morning they was playing the 1962 film Only Two Can Play, which I had never seen before. It was pretty good. With Peter Sellers as a Welsh librarian who falls into a rut with his job and marriage. He meets the married Liz (played by Mai Zetterling) and the two embark on an affair. While Zetterling is the top billed female star, the real standout is Virginia Maskell, who plays Jean (Sellers wife). She gives a terrific performance. And sad to find out her career was short-lived as she committed suicide in 1968. Anyway, I liked Only Two Can Play. Well what I saw of it. I missed like the first 45 minutes or so.
I catch up on the latest episodes of my favorite series before I go to work and I think it's awesome that you start your day with classic movies! This one sounds very interesting!
