Much like the TCM Top Twelve (which I still need to create a banner for) I’m creating a new running feature.  I have a pretty hefty Netflix queue (at one point I’d hit the maximum of 500 movies…I didn’t even know Netflix HAD a maximum) and figured I’d keep you up to dat read more

Do you love your mother?  Well then don’t subject her to the atrocious remake that is Mother’s Day.  I don’t recommend the original either but that’s for different reasons which I’ll get into later.  I admit, my mom watches anything, but this movie just a cheap horror read more

For Your Consideration. Please nominate me for this year’s Lammys! I’m going to attempt to make this a regular thing, and think of a cooler name for these general update posts.  I’ll be commenting on the recent poll numbers (and putting up a new one), and giving some general update read more

So much to write about that it might require two posts.  Let’s start with the delayed movie review.  I watched this last night but due to massive studying I just couldn’t write it out.  Today’s film is an odd little movie from 1948 called Rachel and the Stranger.  To preface, and read more

For Your Consideration Another day with so many posts I had to do it twice (sorry, I didn’t have a quippy rhyme scheme to go with it).  To start, I’m throwing my hat into the ring and posting a For Your Consideration ad for the annual LAMMYS.  If you haven’t noticed on the sidebar, read more

Guilty Pleasures No classic movie today but I wanted to post something anyway and figured, what better thing to write about than my love of making a complete ass out of myself!  As song says “Guilty pleasures, everybody’s got a few” and I’m no different so here’s my lis read more

Father’s Little Dividend I’m not sure which review I mentioned it in, but I haven’t discovered a film by Vincente Minnielli that I’ve liked…until today.  Father’s Little Dividend is the sequel to the 1950 film Father of the Bride.  I saw the original Father of the read more

Updates, updates, get your updates! Two posts in one day!  Get used to it because once the summer hits I’m going to be a posting fiend so if you’re not subscribed to the Facebook, the Twitter (www.twitter.com/Journeys_Film), or through the various other ways to follow the blog then pleas read more

Thanks everyone for voting in the first Reader Request poll (that’s what I’m labeling these reviews).  By a vote of five, the readers requested a review of the 1962 film Cape Fear.  Cape Fear is one of my favorite movies, and my second favorite Robert Mitchum film (my favorite being Nigh read more

As much as I try to enjoy my weekends school free (only until the 15th when summer starts) sometimes school just seeps into everything.  Today’s film is the 1970 documentary Gimme Shelter, a film I desperately have wanted to see for several reasons.  Many people have an era they wish they were read more

Here are the banners for the upcoming Leading Man Tournament, starting May 20th!  The tournament will consist of five actors from each decade between 1930-2010 and will last until a lone leading man is left standing.  Feel free to post these on your blogs, Facebook, Twitter, wherever more people wil read more

Did I mention prizes? I’ve been working on an 8-page Vietnam paper so I’m a little beat today.  This is just a friendly reminder that our poll is currently still open till Sunday.  Currently Cape Fear is leading with four votes but there’s still plenty of time to change that so vot read more

A movie review, are you shocked?  No…didn’t think so.  Today’s film seems to be entrenched in the mode of “The Thin Man was a great success, what else do we have that’s like it?”  The Ex-Mrs. Bradford is a cute movie but it plays the fact that it’s a direct read more

The TCM Top Twelve of May Here’s that new segment I was talking about (having gone under some heavy revisions in 24 hours.  I’m working on a banner for this and I’m open to suggestion.  I notice that a lot of blogs put up the TCM schedule and do commentary which I love but I want read more

Reblogged from Comet Over Hollywood: Comet Over Hollywood is hosting it’s first ever contest in celebration of Turner Classic Movies finally honoring Joel McCrea as May’s Star of the Month. As my biggest heartthrob and favorite actor, I had to do something for Mr. McCrea, as well as than read more

So another hectic week is ahead of me so I figured I’d go light today with a few brief updates.  In terms of updates my Must-See Movies of May poll seemed to get no response so I put up a new poll letting you guys pick the next movie I review.  These are films I have on my overextended DVR so read more

Back with a movie review finally!  If I don’t start clearing out the multitude of movies I’ve recorded over the weeks I’m in trouble, my DVR is already 80% full so if I want more movies I need to work on my turn-over (two more weeks till summer!).  Today’s film is the 1974 read more

I’ve been off the blogging scene for two days and that’s all due to my damn need for higher education.  I’m in the home stretch, only three weeks left of school and I’ll be free to watch whatever I want, whenever I want, and blog about it freely.  Until then…you’r read more

I’m always behind with the Academy Award documentaries.  As it is today’s film was nominated just  last year for Best Documentary (and lost unfortunately).  Exit Through the Gift Shop is a fascinating documentary not just about street art (aka graffitti), or the elusive figure known as read more

Carnage is an interesting movie as I’ve met people not too far removed from the characters of this film.  The idea that we all have numerous faces and we’re conditioned by society on how to act socially is a fascinating one and if you live in the suburbs…you’ve been placed in read more
