watch more classic films

It’s a wonderful life.

I loved this movie dearly. It makes me smile just saying the title.
I just can’t believe i waited this long to see this.

Nosferatu.

The first noted Vampire movie.
1929.

I watched this 2 nights ago – Audrey Hepburn and what’s his name… Peter O’Toole, I think? It was an entertaining movie but it was on from 1-3am, and I just couldn’t stay awake to watch the last half hour.

I suspect that it had a happy ending, romantically and klepto-ically (ha – I made a new word).

With Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway.

There’s something about Faye Dunaway. I can’t decide if I like or dislike her as an actress. She’s quite intriguing somehow. I guess that’s good.

I’m making progress on this one.. Just got Casablanca, It’s a Wonderful Life, 2001 a Space Odyssey, Bonnie and CLyde, Singing in the Rain, The Postmas always rings twice… Just got to watch them!! : D x

The next film I want to see is Apartment, I had no idea there was a sequel to “Some like it Hot”.

Adam’s Rib with Hepburn and Tracey, The Thomas Crown Affair with McQueen and what’s her name (it was good but I like the new one better), and The Barefoot Contessa is in the DVD player right now.

To me this film was about following the leader, creating heroes and icons. What is it about the human psyche that we need to believe in heroes so badly (even when the hero knows that he is not a hero, and tries to discourage us)?

Interesting film.

is in the DVD player…

Bibliomania has loads of classic books available to read online.

I just read Emma, and then I started the first chapter of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Uh-oh. A new way to procrastinate – exactly what I don’t need!

It’s a bit uncomfortable to read an entire novel on a computer screen, however.
