Carrie’s choice: Anchors Aweigh (1945) Airing at 12:00PM EST I AM SO EXCITED. It’s Kathryn Grayson day. Hello, DVR. I adore her movies. That’s all there is to it. Make sure you read Brandie’s comments below because it was hard for me to decide what to watch. Just set your DVR and watch all of…
Carrie’s choice: Bonnie and Clyde (1967) Airing 6:00PM EST Since Brandie already had something to say about Bonnie and Clyde back in February, I’m linking to her post about the film. Brandie’s choice: Splendor in the Grass (1961) Airing 8:00PM EST Ahh, young love. Well, sort of. The first time I saw this movie was…
Carrie’s choice: Boy, Did I Get a Wrong Number (1966) Airing 11:30AM EST Yeah. You’re right. It’s a great title. This is a recommendation mostly because it looks hilarious. It begins with a fairly popular plot of escape: an actress is trying to escape from Hollywood, because they do not take her seriously enough as…
Carrie’s choice: Spellbound (1945) Airing 4:00PM EST Today it was pretty hard to choose which movie to recommend. So, let me start by saying just set your DVR up now and record the whole thing, call in sick, get popcorn, something. That said, I’ll get to Spellbound. To fully understand how much I liked this…
Brandie’s choice: None But the Lonely Heart (1944) Airing 8:00PM EST I must admit that I wish I were suggesting another movie to you right now, a movie featuring the delightful Ethel Barrymore in one of her more effective supporting roles: 1947’s The Farmer’s Daughter, co-starring Loretta Young and Joseph Cotten. I adore this movie…
Carrie’s choice: The Blob (1958) Airing 11:45AM EST Run…. Don’t walk from… The Blob! I’m taking just a couple of quick minutes for The Blob. This film is interesting in that it has become so culturally relevant, not for the film itself, but for the previews. The ads for The Blob have infiltrated our culture…
Brandie’s choice: A Tale of Two Cities (1935) Airing 1:00PM EST Most people are familiar with Rathbone in the persona pictured above, as the erstwhile detective Sherlock Holmes in a series of fourteen films spanning the years between 1939 and 1946. Carrie’s recommendations, listed below, will tell you a bit more about Rathbone’s most well-known…
So you may recall that February’s experiment in “let’s make a recommendation every day!” didn’t exactly work out the way I wanted it to. But as Fred and Ginger sang in one of their best, Swing Time, “pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again.” (Well, now I just need to post…
