Carole would have been 97 today. I think I'll watch some of her films to celebrate!

...any of them will be a huge improvement over the film I watched this afternoon... Sin City. ugh.

    I was thinking of renting that. Pretty Lame, huh? I'm not surprised.

    Oh, and... HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAROLE!

      here's what: I typically like Robert Rodriguez & really think it was shot perfectly... it's definitely cool, visually. I just... didn't really care. I don't know. Everyone I've talked to has said it's a love it or hate it kinda movie. I just thought "ehhh".

      But now- Mr. & Mrs. Smith, later Nothing Sacred & My Man Godfrey. All this Carole will definitely get the bad taste of Sin City out of my mouth.

        I'd be surprised if I loved 'Sin City.' I might watch it anyway, out of curiosity.

        Enjoy the Carole fest!

            there was a recent dvd collection containing 5 movies released last year. see if they have it. some lesser known some well know on it.

            You should definitely see

            Twentieth Century

                  Sean, you must see My Man Godfrey & Nothing Sacred ASAP! They are essential Lombard!
                  I caught "Fools for Scandal" on TCM yesterday. It was fun.
