Critica Retro Posted by Lê on Nov 30, -0001
A família de Tarzan Direto das selvas para o mundo todo através de quadrinhos, filmes e séries, o personagem Tarzan alcançou fama mundial. Pouco importava se no cinema da década de 1930 os efeitos especiais fossem bizarros e os animais muito esquisitos; não houve menino que não sonhou read more
A Custom-Made Classic Film Calendar
Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
A few months ago I was shopping online for a movie themed calendar. My search was in vain. What's available on the market is not great and for classic film fans like me the only calendar available is the same movie posters one that's been recycled year after year.

Random Pictures Posted by Amy on Nov 30, -0001

A Flor que não Morreu (1959) / Green Mansions (1959) De vez em quando as estrelas se alinham e dois de seus atores favoritos fazem um filme juntos. Isso foi o que aconteceu com “A Flor que não Morreu”, infelizmente considerado um dos piores filmes das carreiras de dois de meus read more
