My brain whenever I put on a classic movie to watch:

I love the hagsploitation sub-genre of film…when done correctly…

No Other Choice SHOULD have at the very *least* gotten an Oscar Nomination for Original Screenplay.

I *LOVE* this movie!

A ★★★★ review of Hondo (1953) I would say that initially walking into this movie, I was a little worried this film would be another John Wayne vehicle where he would masquerade as the “All-American Man,” while disparaging the lega...

I normally am not a fan of Westerns, But Hondo (1953) did do a good job deviating away from Native American stereotypes prevalent during time and actually strived to make an honest western film.

Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith in Working Girl (1988) go so well together, like peanut butter and jelly.

Happy Friday the 13th! Hope everyone got through the day okay.

John Wayne’s savage parenting skills:

A ★★★★★ review of Liza with a Z (1972) This should be in the National Film Registry. And don’t give me that shit that this shouldn’t be because it’s a TV special. The National Film Registry has inducted, in the past, music videos, music co...

How in the HELL is this not in the National Film Registry?!

I am ALWAYS posting on my letterboxd. I sprinkle my stuff on bluesky over time.

I seriously need to watch 45 Years again. I don’t think I gave it the attention it deserved when I last saw it.

Happy Birthday to Charlotte Rampling, who I loved in the film Farewell, My Lovely (1975).

Omg I thought you were serious!

A ★★★★½ review of Pickup on South Street (1953) Pickup on South Street is an under-appreciated, hidden gem of the film noir canon. This film has wonderful Hitchcockian elements, while also possessing tropes that can be easily found in Otto Preminge...

I also loved her in Pickup on South Street (1953).

A ★★★★★ review of The Mating Season (1951) I 👏🏻 Loved 👏🏻 This 👏🏻 Movie 👏🏻 So rare is it that one comes across a comedy-farce that has a sense of identity and purpose. The Mating Season was the tour de force of Thelma Ritter’s career. She is at...

The Mating Season (1951) is my favorite of Thelma Ritter’s performances. It’s the closest she got to be a film leading lady and she OWNS in this movie.

Gurl you’re joking, right?! Thelma Ritter is my 1950s QUEEN!

A ★★★ review of Room at the Top (1958) I will preface this review by stating that Room at the Top was by no means a bad movie; I would NEVER call this movie a BAD movie, but by God was this movie a BORING movie! I just could not get invest...

A Room at the Top (1959) is a somewhat dry film, but its messaging is quite progressive and its acting is incredible. Shoutout to Simone Signoret for her Oscar win and Hermoine Baddeley for her 2 minute Oscar nominated performance!
