    Belted Back Suit Heaven ! Nathan Marsak’s Collection.

    In the immortal words of Arch Hall Jr. Wowee-wow-wow! And I love The 1947 Project too.

    I'm Your Man

    There are no big surprises. It's good, especially (okay only) if you like Leonard Cohen. This is stil the definitive Cohen film as far as I'm concerned:

    NERD ALERT PART II

    I'll agree that the Nicki/Jessica story line stinks. I particulary hate the contrivance of the reflection. Hey, I get it, the face in the mirror is the OTHER one. Boring. I don't think Ali Larter's doing much to help it though. There is not a lot of subtlety in the two performances she has to...

    Stand up and be counted

    I refuse to participate because the poll uses continents (or vast neighbourhoods) except in the case of the USA which is a country, thus leaving Canada out in the cold. Nice.

    'Feed the Kitty' Merrie Melodies- Hilarious!

    This is one of my favourite cartoons in the whole wide world. One Froggy Evening is right up there next to it. Great stuff.

    Sins of the Children for Christmas

    I just saw this for the first time tonight. Sins of the Children, directed by Sam Wood and starring Robert Montgomery and Louis Mann, from 1930. IT's very similar to It's a Wonderful Life, and it's final Christmas setting makes it a film worht looking at this season. It's available on the...

    Eating pets

    I am. But I said I'd make an exception for cats. Which was just me being droll. I don't eat chickens and they are the living embodiment of the dirty eye. Can you make hat felt out of cat hair?

    Watch it the old way!

    And I thought watching something the old way was to actually leave your house and go to a movie theatre. Silly me.

    Eating pets

    But what about cats? I don't eat meat at all but I'm willing to make an exception for cats. I don't like them. They look at me funny.

    looking for pictures of nightclubs, bars, et

    Wow that's a great picture. Any more like that? Any leads tthat might help to identify the bar. Wouldn't it be sweet if there were still places like that? Bars now tend to be all beige walls and square chairs. I like how totally not feng-shui the place above is.

    Christmas without Christ? Huh?

    Four hundred years after Christ was born it was determined that December 25 would be the day to celebrate his birth in an attempt to eclipse other pagan rituals that took place on the same day. Celebrations of Mithras, Attis and Dionyssius (Saturnalia) all most generlly fell on the 25th -...

    It's Christmas time again

    I love the opening of this film most of all. The camera follows Ed Gwynne along the streets of New York in 1946 and you get a very detailed street level view of the real city, not a studio concotion. A great movie.

    Who is today's Cary Grant or close?

    I think what did him in is that he is slightly mad and more than a little self-destructive. He is often very good though. He was fantastic in Another Country, with Colin Firth. A lightly fictionalized account of the public school years of Guy Burgess and Kim Philby. Set in the 30s, it just might...

    It's Christmas time again

    ????????????????????????????!!!!! George C Scott the definitive Scrooge? Madness!!! It's Alistair Sim, my dear Harp. Alistair Sim, Alistair Sim, Alistair Sim! Absolutely. It's not my favourite, but has anybody seen An American Christmas Carol starring Henry Winkler, set in the...

    Eating pets

    I'd eat a cat. It wouldn't feel sentimental before it ate me. But I'm a dog person.
