37 Today!

My god, this feels really old! I cannot lie I was quite ok with 36, but 37 feels like that awful push towards 40! Anyway I have tried to lighten the mood by having a look at some film related trivia and that at 37 years old the following actors took on some rather impressive film roles!

Jack Nicholson in Chinatown (1974)Barbara Stanwyck in Double Indemnity (1944)Vivien Leigh in A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)Frank Sinatra in From Here to Eternity (1953)

Let’s quote Tennesse Williams incredible ‘A Streetcar Named Desire’ with truly iconic delivery by Vivien Leigh “I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.”

Happy Birthday to me.

Top 10 – Films I Caught Up With in 2014

I always like to put together a top 10 list of films I have managed to catch up with and watch during 2014 that I had never seen before. Below you will see that I really was slacking with some of these films! Especially the Before Trilogy which I totally fell in love with.

It Happened One Night (1934) – Review

Clark Gable really is something else. This film has that groundbreaking scene of a woman’s leg in what is an amazing scene. Just showing that women can do things which men cannot! Gable gets plenty of good lines in this and the chemistry is fantastic!
