What's the last movie you watched?

Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House, Penny Serenade, To Catch A Thief, Charade, North By Northwest, People Will Talk, Walk Don't Run, Gunga Din OH MY SO MANY!!

I don't think I've ever seen a Cary Grant movie that I didn't like. He's my favorite of the classic cinema actors. So much class and charisma in his roles. I think my favorite though is either To Catch a Theif (for the more serious side) or Houseboat (for the lighter side). I loved Sofia Lorene in Houseboat too; she was so fun. And my goodness that woman was gorgeous!

I bought a copy of Holiday Inn with Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire~the Special Edition.
It has all new bonus features. They have an intimate retrospective of Bing and Fred featuring an interview with Freds daughter Ava Astaire MacKenzie. I saw film footage I have never seen before. What a joy.

That's one of my husband's favorite movies! Where did you find it? I'd love to get it for him.

I started to watch Unknown last night but fell asleep on the couch mid way through. I'll finish watching it tonight.

It's the 25th anniversary of CG's death today. He died of a massive aneurism after falling ill during a rehearsal while staying at the Blackhawk Hotel in Davenport, IA. I've always loved his acting.

Thought cars wore bras... How'd you get a tux to fit your car, PF?

My wife and I went to see "Hugo" this weekend. It was actually a very sweet movie. Not at all what I was expecting. The 3D really makes it come to life.

I'm excited to see "Hugo" , have seen rave reviews.

Awww, cute!

His name is tattooed on his behind!

"The Car with the Archie Tattoo," isn't there a hit movie out about that now? Along with "The Car Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest"?

Glad to hear that, Steve. Glenn and I are going to see it this afternoon. I read the book when it came out and was totally captivated. What imagination!!!! Loved the images the author "painted" in my head. Looked at some movie trailers yesterday and was impressed with what I saw.

I usually wait for most movies to come out on DVD, but I thought this one merited being seen on the big screen and I don't think I'm going to be disappointed.

Glenn and I watched Seven Pounds with Will Smith last night. WOW!! What a powerful film!!!! He's truly a versatile and gifted actor.

A very moving film. Tricky beginning though.
