I took myself to the movies last night. I’m a pretty good date. I even sprung for popcorn. It was a older film, It All Came True! 1940 with Humphrey Bogart and Ann Sheridan. I’m a fan of films from the 1940s. Makes me wonder if I was born in the wrong year. Do you watch classic films? What are some of your favorites? #movies
@ceorl nice! I will have to check out that site! In a lonely place is a favorite of mine.
A night to remember
Shadow of a doubt
Conflict
The gold rush
Sherlock jr
Mildred Pierce
The Petrified forest
Rashomon
@Redskye572 I really did enjoy Mildred Pierce. And it’s interesting because I usually like Joan Crawford better when she’s being evil, rather than kind.
@Samanthabwriter I love that movie. The conflicts between her and Veda is one for the ages.
@Redskye572 I have a cousin who named her daughter Veda. I'm guessing she's not familiar with this story. LOL.
@Samanthabwriter I love #ClassicMovies! A few favorites from the 40s:
Casablanca
The Philadelphia Story
His Girl Friday
Laura
@Laura_47 I love all three of these too! Maybe especially Laura.
If you like Bogie, he was great in the Petrified Forest as a gangster on the run vs Bette Davis/Leslie Howard and in Conflict as a noir villain who is unable to outsmart Sydney Greenstreet.
@Redskye572 I do like Bogie. And I don’t think I’ve seen that one! (Adds to list)
@Samanthabwriter
Yes! 40s, 30s, 20s! You may enjoy exploring Archive.org https://archive.org/details/feature_films
As I watch several films from a decade or a year I enjoy seeing a fuller picture of that age develop in my mind.
Bogart's In a Lonely Place is there, https://archive.org/details/1950-in-a-lonely-place-en-un-lugar-solitario-nicholas-ray-vose
Also Victor Mature and Betty Grable in I Wake Up Screaming comes to mind https://archive.org/details/iwakeupscreaming1941
And Street Scene, strange, intense, all taking place on a doorstep https://archive.org/details/StreetScene1931
