When it was all said and done, it was Greta Garbo standing tall winning The Favorite Silent Actress Tourney by defeating the feisty Louise Brooks by the count of 100-82. This was the most voted on match of the entire tourney with the leads changing hands several times. In fact Louise had a 10 vote lead just two days ago before Greta made a furious rally to take home the crown. I want to thank my good friend Catherine, of Plucked from Obscurity who co-hosted this tourney with me. In fact it was her idea that we do this, and what a wonderful idea it was. Thanks to all those that took the time to vote and then spread the word through-out the classic movie lovers landscape. Next year me and Catherine will host a tourney dedicated to the silent actors of yesteryear, which should be awesome too. And don't forget about the 4th Annual Favorite Classic Movie Actress that features 132 actresses over four eras competing for the title. More info to follow as that tourney starts Sunday, March 2nd.
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.
