Old Times

I love old things, and for Valentines day my lovely man took me to the Electric Cinema in Birmingham (my fave place for watching films) and we watched Casablanca. I have seen many an old film in my time, but more recently I have wanted to watch more and more, there are some great classics out there.

A lot of people have asked how I managed to get through 26 years without seeing Casablanca, and I don't know why, but now I have seen it there is no looking back! I bought it on DVD and a whole stack of others.

One of my DVDs is Some Like it Hot! It's a fab film, Marilyn Monroe really was an amazingly beautiful woman! Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon don't look half bad as women either ;) I really enjoyed this film, it has songs, dance, lots of laughs and scary moments. It made me smile.

Charade was another of my DVDs. I love Audrey Hepburn, I have seen Breakfast at Tiffanys so many times I don't know why I didn't branch out into more of her films, but now I am going to! She is so lovely and so beautiful!

Me and my lovely man have also decided to have a classic film night once a week, this week it was the Godfather. Yes once again how have I never seen it?! (He hadn't seen it either!) It was awesome! We even watched the second one :) It is a long one, but set yourself down with some drinks and some snacks and your set!
There are many great films out there, although I can never pick a favorite. I think that there are just too many that I haven't seen. But I really want to see lots of old ones and extend my film knowledge before I try and decide that.
