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.

Let’s Go To The Movies – 50 Favourite Films!

This is something I have been putting together for quite a long time now and I have held off posting it or even attempting to start the blog post in fear that I have forgotten and somehow missed a favourite film from the list. Barring in mind I got up to 72 films and then had to cut it down to the 50. I would like to make clear these are my favourite films, some might have happened to win Oscars as well and some certainly have not at all. The way I have decided on my favourites is the sheer joy they bring and the number of rewatches I have had over the years. While I have listed 1-50 a lot of them can be shifted around and changed with each other. It is going to highlight my love for musicals and for certain actors and actresses! I doubt it will contain many surprises though!

Musical Moments – Joker dancing to Prince!

I totally forgot just how impressive this scene is from Batman (1989) and with Jack Nicholson in the role as the Joker doing a fantastic dance to Partyman by Prince. It really is just one of those scenes where the music fights so perfectly with the characters and film as a whole.

Batman – 1989!

Tonight starting at 7:30pm I am heading to the cinema to see the 1989 Batman film on the big screen. Something that really does excite me considering my love for this film and Batman/Bruce Wayne. As much as I love the Nolan trilogy this was the film that really kicked off my love for Batman watching it as a kid and adoring it. Baring in mind I had not long turned 2 years old when it was released in the cinema I am very much looking forward to seeing it on the big screen after all this time!

Let’s Go To The Movies on 10th July @ Cineworld!

That’s right today Cineworld announced that Cinemas in England are scheduled to open on 10th July, obviously this is provisional but I certainly see it as a light at the end of the tunnel. The cinema is the place I have missed the most since lockdown and I really cannot wait to see a film on the big screen again!

Felt like celebrating with some images from movie scenes where they go to the cinema! Can you name all the films?
