Least Favorite: Brother Rat and a Baby (1940) - Wayne Morris was SUPER annoying in this movie
And yes, I do currently have a thing for Chris Pine. But hey! His dad was in CHiPs (1977-83) and his grandmother Anne Gwynne was a starlet in the 30s and 40s (though I have yet to see any of her films) so I think it's okay ;) Plus, he can sing like Sinatra ♥
That's quite a list! I keep wanting to see "Lizzie," since it's based off of one of my favorite Shirley Jackson books.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to see Lizzie for a while. It came out the same year as The Three Faces of Eve that Joanne Woodward won an Oscar for. If you have TCM it comes on again March 28 at 12:30am ET.
DeleteI don't have TCM, but I think it came out on dvd last year so I might try to get a hold of an inexpensive used copy.
Delete(By the way, sorry for accidentally ignoring the comments you left on my blog last month. I always saw the note about them on the old homepage and somewhere along the line my e-mail notification setting got changed, so when the homepage changed I didn't realize they were there. :( )
No TCM!!! :(
DeleteYeah when blogger updated it messed up stuff for me too. I only get email notifications for about half the comments I get. And now I have to click on reading list to see who's posted recently and I always forget. I've been visiting some of the blogs I typically comment on and looking at the past several entries.
Chris Pine is a cutie! I quite like his take on Capt. Kirk. Really dug him as Jack Ryan, too.
ReplyDeleteMan, I'm so envious of that list. In January, I watched Rogue One (twice), Open Range, the BBC Emma, a couple eps of random TV shows, and Her First Romance (1940). Really think that was it. I've been making up for that in February, though.
The more I see of him the more I realize what a fantastic actor he is! I've started watching the original Star Trek now :)
DeleteThis month has started off slow for me movie-wise. I've been watching Timeless (great show by the way!), Star Trek, The Crown, and Victoria. Also plan on watching Doubt which starts next Wednesday for Dule Hill who was in Psych (one of my all time favorite shows).
Well, fun as Chris Pine is, he's really no William Shatner <3
DeleteI hear good things about Victoria!
I agree :)
DeletePersonally I prefer "The Young Victoria" with Emily Blunt but this series is still good. It's a little less historically accurate than I would like.
Hi Phyllis,
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know that I'll be hosting a Franchot Tone Blogathon in April. (P.S. We watched a lot of the same Jane Wyman films in January!) If you would like to join in, please go to: http://franchottone.blogspot.com/2017/02/announcing-franchot-tone-blogathon.html
Thanks for letting me know!! I'll definitely participate :)
