Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries (2012) s03e04 – Blood & Money

The Stop Button Posted by on May 23, 2020

“Miss Fisher’s,” as a rule, doesn’t do children in danger episodes. There’s been at least one other one, maybe another (but I don’t think really think so), but this episode opens with a kid buried in a shallow grave. It’s very intense right off. Though it’s also got some post-war things read more

FAVOURITE MOVIES: A Run for Your Money (1949)

Caftan Woman Posted by on Mar 10, 2017

I recently revisited A Run for Your Money after many years. It was with some trepidation that I approached this movie as I was sharing it with my daughter, Janet. Would it be as delightful as remembered? It was, and my memory was unusually accurate for such a long absence. In the post-WW2 period E read more

I ended up viewing four films, all new to me. They were PUSHOVER, PERFECT STRANGERS, TWENTIETH CENTURY, and TIGHT SPOT. This was the firs read more
