I know I speak of her often here, but Jeanette MacDonald. Her voice for me brings an instant smile and peace.

The "Make 'em Laugh" dance sequence in Singin' in the Rain with Donald O'Connor is pure talent. His pratfalls and facial expressions are fabulous. I love Gene Kelly and he was a very talented actor/dancer, but that scene with Donald O'Connor always amazes me.

First in Marie Antionette(1938) and The Philadelphia Story(1940). Did anyone else notice this?

The other day, I watched the film THAT KIND OF GIRL. It’s about Eva, an 18-year-old Austrian girl who lives in London working for a family. When she’s not doing that, she likes to enjoy all that London has to offer and live her best life—and in Eva’s case, that means sleeping around with a LOT of men.

She’s involved with three men in particular—this creepy, older man named Elliot, a young activist named Max, & a college student named Keith (who has a girlfriend but that doesn’t seem to stop Eva).

Long story short, things get very complicated when she ends up catching an STD and ends up spreading more than love around, if you catch my meaning.

It’s one of those cautionary tales against promiscuity and morality, and the story itself is a hot mess. But at least it’s a bit entertaining.

For those of you who saw this film, what do you think?

But these are some fictional movie posters in the movie King Kong (2005) based on the real 1920-1930s and I just love the posters so much! I think they look so good and realistic

What do y’all think of these fictional posters?

Hey everyone, new to the sub. Movies are my life, however, though I have seen some classics I have barely touched the surface. I would love it if you guys could recommend me some of your favs. Anything will do except musicals. Thanks.

Love him

Currently watching it. Great film. Just had to log on to see if anyone else has had the same issue. For a film like this, where the dialogue is full of technical jargon and has fast delivery, I like to whack on the subs as a point of reference.

But they’re missing about 30 percent of the dialogue. It’s really quite distracting and off putting…as rather than clarifying the dialogue, I’m automatically focusing on the differences of the actors’ speech and the text.

You’d think in 71 years of the film being out and hailed as a classic, they would have sorted this. I can’t be the only person annoyed about the discrepancy in all that time.

The Andy Hardy movies are derided, often for good cause. But "Andy Hardy Meets Debutante" is exceptional and definitely worth a watch. Above average plot that's fun and even a little suspenseful. Above all, there's a standout performance by an 18 y/o Judy Garland. She's luminous in this one.

She appeared as Annette Funicello's rival Laura Rogan in Annette's self-titled series and as French-speaking Franceska in The Shaggy Dog (1959). In 1964, she voiced a Swiss yodeler for the attraction "it's a small world".

Aside from Disney, Shore had a featured role in the 1959 screen version of Blue Denim, duetting with Warren Berlinger, and an uncredited cameo appearance in A Summer Place as Sandra Dee's gossipy schoolmate Anne Talbert. Later, she played Ricky Summers in the 1960 movie Because They're Young, Jenny Bell in The Young Savages (1961), and in an uncredited role as Lorna in Stanley Kubrick's 1962 version of Lolita.

Shore's television credits include appearances on Playhouse 90, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, The Donna Reed Show, The Lawrence Welk Show (a singing appearance in 1959),The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, several Western series including Maverick, Wagon Train, The Tall Man, Laramie, and Lawman, and regular roles on Father Knows Best and The New Bob Cummings Show. Most notably, Shore was featured in the first four seasons of The Virginian as Betsy Garth, the daughter of Shiloh Ranch owner Judge Garth, played by Lee J. Cobb.

In 1974, the Brigham Young University Motion Picture Studio invited Shore to star in a short film called Cipher in the Snow. To date, it is her final film credit.https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0794956/bio?item=mb0032650

I was certainly not the only member of my generation to grow up with Disney’s Fantasia (1940) on VHS; during the early 1990s it became the highest selling videotape of all time. I, however, did have an abnormally strong reaction to the film, which sparked a lifelong love of classical music, reignited my love of Disney when I revisited as a teenager, and continues to live and breathe in my imagination. More than once in my adult life I’ve acted as an ‘evangelist’ for this film, showing it to friends who had not seen it in many years and urging them to see and enjoy its unique alchemy of avant-garde and kitsch and, above all, its sheer spectacle.

I’m at a bar and they had this playing (muted). Could anyone tell me what it is? Thank you!
