    A couple of episodes of Parking Wars from the dvr. Yeah, I know it's wrong, but I can't help myself.

    To All My Friends on the Lounge:

    A Happy Thanksgiving to all the Fedora Loungers~ I have over the years enjoyed the postings, the exchanges, and the insights into the Golden Age with which we identify. As my family expands with in-laws, we will celebrate Thanksgiving this year at the home of the other grandparents. My wife...

    What Are You Reading

    Exactly right - in the film you cared about Jim and Muriel, but in the book they are presented sort of at arm's length. Nearly all the characters are predatory, Simms excepted.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Paree, Paree (1934) with Bob Hope and Dorothy Stone. A "Broadway Brevity," it was a short with a great deal of singing and dancing, with Hope a young man who takes a bet that he can woo a lady without letting on he's rich. The choreography and camera work seemed primitive even by 1934 standards...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Youngest Shellhammer raved about Stranger Things, and some folks on FB were tickled to pieces that season two was coming, so we're watching season one. The Missus likes it, but I'm waiting for it take hold. NB: I enjoy using the Vid Angel filtering service to cut down on the rough language.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Destination Moon (1950). An attempt to combine entertainment with a scientific foundation. Woody Woodpecker educational short aside, it was a noble attempt to present a realistic story that would normally be classed as science fiction. Most of the actors wore hats of some kind, even the...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Vera Cruz. Lancaster's smile is like a joyful shark, even more so when he smiles in reaction to differing plot points (betrayal, trapped, one-upped by Cooper, finding where the loot is). In my rotation along with The Magnificent 7 and Major Dundee.
