Call Northside 777

Sorry for my lack of updating. :c I've been busier with life!

Anyway, I've been on an alternate sleep schedule for nearly a year now, which gives me the chance to catch movies that tend to show late on Turner Classic Movies. Thank goodness, too.

Yesterday, I finished watching a show on Netflix. I was then drawn to my bed to watch a movie. What did I happen to catch? Call Northside 777. As big as a Jimmy Stewart fan I am, I have never seen it. I tend to only catch whatever I can find on TCM or Netflix...or my dad's personal collection. So it was a real score to be able to catch it.

It was classic Jimmy Stewart. Full of drama, a man fighting for justice... For some reason, it reminded me a lot of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. It was great though. And I've been on a hiatus from watching a lot of classic movies recently, but this really got me into wanting to see more. So hopefully, I'll start having more to post about.

If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it!

TCM's 31 Days of Oscar

Hey everyone! It's been a long, long time since I have actually posted a "real" entry. So here goes!

February of each year is one of my favorite months. It has Valentine's Day, Mardi Gras, Groundhog Day... and of course, it's Oscar season. Which means, TCM has their 31 Days of Oscar! I absolutely love this time of year.

I remember a few years ago, perhaps 2008... I watched over 300 movies total in a 31 day span. I can't even tell you how exactly. It became a sick obsession and I lost a lot of sleep. I was a junior in high school! Oh, the memories... High school was when I really discovered my passion for classic movies and well, movies in general.

I hope that those of you who watch TCM are enjoying the line up! I always do. I love catching movies I have never seen before like Cool Hand Luke and Pinky, but also love catching classic favorites like Casablanca, East of Eden, and The Awful Truth. Though I will tell you that I am slightly disappointed. They are sadly not playing Roman Holiday or The Philadelphia Story this year, two of my absolute favorites!

I've had an alternate sleep schedule for a long time, so I luckily get to see those early morning movies quite often. I love it! They help me dream of peaceful things in some way. Anyway, I hope you guys are discovering something new or watching an old favorite this month! And if you're not, that's fine, too. Hope you get the chance to watch something nice soon. (:

It's been a long, LONG, time!

After first starting this blog as a project, I really grew to love it... but have sadly abandoned it. I think I want to start doing movie reviews again, but I am not sure if I want to start adding other aspects to it. I'm not sure if people even look at this regularly! Anyway, I'll try to see a movie and post soon.

Hope everyone is well!

Just another quick update! Summer has approached me so quickly. I felt like just yesterday I was yearning to get out of school. Now, I am busy catching up with friends and doing my own thing. Lots of reading, movie watching, game playing, and cleaning!

I am planning a movie date [well, just me...] for sometime soon, maybe an Audrey Hepburn evening would suffice. :] I really want to watch Roman Holiday or Two For the Road [my two Hepburn favorites] again. Who knows!? I might decide to go all out and spend an entire day watching the beautiful lady on the screen.

In another news, I do have a formspring! I know, everyone seems to... but I LOVE LOVE LOVE answering questions! So feel free to visit my formspring and ask me anything! Movies, music, books, other interests, etc. You can visit it by clicking here or by asking directly in the right hand column.

Leave your recommendations for me! I'd love to hear some :]

Sorry everyone for the lack of an update! I have been busy with my second semester of college that I finally finished. Now, I have finally found some time to update. School was dandy, and I’m glad it’s over. I finally have time to relax a bit and not stress as often… and of course, watch many classic movies :].

I have been enjoying TCM A LOT these past couple of months. I loved Donna Reed as the Star of the Month this past month. It’s always a delight to see her and her beauty on the screen. I also enjoyed TCM’s 31 Days of Oscar, like usual. ^ .^ Always great chances to catch some of my favorites, and find some new ones!

I have a few plans for this summer, such as my vacation and working… ballroom dancing and going to flea markets, sleepovers and everything xD. Then back to school in the fall. I am super excited… taking a History of the Cinema course! That should be fun (:

I will give a good update soon :) Otherwise, leave me some recommendations :D
