Just done talking with my neighbour about the timeless aspect of classic movies like with Burt Lancaster and James Stewart. At least they did not have commercials back then
I recommend the movie "You can't take it with you" with James stewart. Very nice and moving

Lol really? He was cast typed as a crook lol. He starred a lot with Pat O'brian I think (Often played as a priest) and his best friend. He did a musical but forget the name. He was very talented. I think he was only five foot six but played a big tough guy
Edward G Robinson was also very short in stature but played a big tough guy lol.
Good morning everyone: Keep smiling!
I never watched many of those old ganster movies...nor the modern ones....
James Cagney was very good in this one: His performance as George M. Cohan in Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) is ranked #6 on Premiere Magazine's 100 Greatest Performances of All Time (2006
Yes that is the one I am thinking of. I liked James Stewart and Gary Cooper too.
I did too...still do, but many of the story lines were much more Christian based...not like what we see today in the movies....
Still my favotites:
Mr Deeds Goes to Town. You can't Take it with you and It Is A wonderful life.
I like the classics. They seem wholesom and virtous. They could not swear back then. I like the timeless natue of the classics. Those were simpler times to be sure.
Hello everyone. Not much into classic movies myself. TCM has Elvis movies on all day, which I watched for about an hour; it's the anniversary of his death. My cousin had me watching him when I was four.
It's quite in the chat today. I went to the mall yesterday, mostly just for a change of scenery. It was more crowded than usual. Probably back to school time brought folks out.
Enjoy your son. Alaska! That sounds like quite a trip. Will you be home alone?
Sounds like it will b a nice trip for them. I'm glad you have nice neighbors. I see you're from So. CA. I was in your state once in my 20s. I was in a little town called Los Alamitos. I flew into LA and I visited Long Beach and Garden Grove while there. A long, long time ago, it was.
I liked Elvis alright, but the Beatles were my favorite. To this day, I like Paul McCartney and much of the 60s-70s music. Nothing makes me feel older, though, than realizing all of those guys are 70 years or older now.
yes Gary Cooper. I think it was about the poor. Gary Cooper represented the poor.Yes, those were wholesome movies...maybe they were not rue to life, even then....but they did reflect the spiritual character of the nation...we thought of ourselves as Christians and held to the 10 commandments as thr rule of living, even if we fell short of living them out perfectly.
I have "Meet John Doe"...what a story, I was surprised by its moral content.
