Book Review: ‘Marlon Brando’ by Patricia Bosworth
The Wonderful World of Cinema Posted by Virginie Pronovost on Jan 17, 2021
Some years ago, I stopped in a used books sale next to a church with a friend who loves books (she works as a librarian now).

On her 79th angel day
Carole & Co. Posted by carole_and_co on Jan 16, 2021
I admittedly haven't written much of late about Carole Lombard and classic Hollywood on this site. It's not health-related -- aside from a weak chest, I've felt fine, and I take every precaution when going outside to protect others as well as myself. It's simply that in the world we're in right now, read more

Valley of Decision (1945): Greer Garson & Gregory Peck
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Jan 16, 2021
Gregory Peck’s pleasantly resonant voice brings us into the moment. The scene is unimaginative yet unmistakable with its obviously scaled-down establishing shot. Pittsburgh. Smokestacks and steel. These are the days of Andrew Carnegie and the transcontinental railroad wrapping its way east to read more
