Earlier this week, the Academy of Motion Pictures and Science announced the finalists for the 94th edition of the Academy Awards. Congratulations to all the nominees! For the occasion, I thought it would be fun to make a top list connected to the Oscars. In the past, I’ve presented you a list read more

I made the surprising (or not) discovery the other day that I participated in absolutely… ZERO blogathons during the whole duration of 2021. There were several reasons for that, but now I’m back in force with my first blogathon of 2022: The John Williams Blogathon hosted by Rebecca from read more

Earlier today, I confirmed, thanks to Letterboxd (the social network of cinephiles), that I had seen a total of 199 new-to-me films in 2021. Not bad! That included fiction films, documentaries, short, medium-length and feature films. I might have forgotten to register some. I don’t know. So, l read more

The other day, I realized that I hadn’t written anything on my blog for almost five months. And that’s a shame. The main reason is that last June I got a job working in the communication department for Montreal International Documentary Festival (most commonly known as the RIDM. R-I-D-M. read more

About two years ago, I published an article where I discussed films that, in my opinion, would fit well together and make credible double features. Carol’s Double Bill blog series that she published on The Old Hollywood Garden inspired that idea. As a total, I made a list of ten matches, but t read more

During the last weeks, I told you that I had decided to change the header photo of my blog and its Facebook page. I picked twelve photos from a chosen theme: 60s comedies and musicals from the 60s (in colour!). And, during three rounds, you cast your vote into randomly chosen polls. And today, we fi read more

We have now reached the final round of my little photo competition, which shall determine which new photo I will use as a header for my blog and my Facebook page! Remember, I chose 12 photos from comedies and musicals made in the 60s. During the first round, you decided which six photos should move read more

I informed you that I was ready for a new header photo for this blog in my previous post. To determine which photo would have this honour, I selected 12 photos from films respecting the following theme: comedies and musicals from the 60s (in colour). I organized random matches between the photos and read more

You know, I’ve been using that photo of The Philadelphia Story as a header for my blog for four years now. I like it, it’s a great photo but, to be honest, I’m ready for a change, something new! If you remember correctly, that cover photo was chosen thanks to your help and votes. I read more

I really have bad blogging habits these days! I have to get back in business and publish more often than I have so far in 2021. Anyway, I had the idea to discuss my monthly film challenges and, more particularly, the one I did in March. I started these challenges in January when I decided that I had read more

I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve published something directly on this blog! Well, it was in January when I shared my review of Marlon Brando’s biography written by Patricia Bosworth. And I’m back today with another book review! This time, I’ll be giving you my a read more

Three Enchanting Ladies When I published my article on Grace Kelly and Jean Simmons’s Olympic champion fathers last February, I discovered an interest in doing that kind of genealogy research. However, it implies a lot of time and organization. Via that article, we learned that Grace Kelly had read more

Three Enchanting Ladies Two days ago, January 31st, 2021, marked what would have been British actress Jean Simmons’s 92nd birthday. Along with the Three Enchanting Ladies (Grace Kelly, Ingrid Bergman and Audrey Hepburn), Jean has always among my top favourite actresses. Even though she never share read more

Some years ago, I stopped in a used books sale next to a church with a friend who loves books (she works as a librarian now). As we were browsing around the books, she spotted a biography book on Marlon Brando and immediately caught my attention as she knew I was a fan of him. As it was inexpensive read more

Three Enchanting Ladies I created this blog five years ago already! Curiously enough, this is the first time I’m celebrating the anniversary of this blog. Since I publish, like, two posts a year (ok, maybe a bit more), I didn’t think it was significant to celebrate each year. However, five years read more

Around a year ago, I reviewed a short entitled Meet the Author and directed by actor Steve Blackwood (Days of Our Lives, In the Light of the Moon, Beyond the Mask). The comedy taking place in a library and introducing an unpopular author was a pleasant one to watch and revealed Blackwood’s tal read more

“It’s a beautiful city Howard, isn’t it? I’d like to come here on our honeymoon.” *** That beautiful city that Eunice Burns is talking about is, indeed, one of the most inspiring places in the United States: San Francisco. It might inspire you for a honeymoon as it is t read more

I was introduced to the fabulous Agnes Moorehead quite early in my exploration of classic films. It was either with Jane Eyre (Robert Stevenson, 1943) or Citizen Kane (Orson Welles, 1941), I am not completely sure. However, I remember, at the time, I thought these two characters were pretty awful, e read more

Three Enchanting Ladies Today, November 12, 2020, marks what would have been enchanting Grace Kelly’s 91st birthday. On this day, I always like to revisit some of her films as a way to pay my tribute. I also normally host The Wonderful Grace Kelly Blogathon on my main blog, The Wonderful World read more

One of my favourite things about #Noirvember is that it gives me the occasion to discover many new-to-me films during November. I indeed take to occasion to watch some noirs that I have never seen before and, therefore, expand my horizons. Of course, I’m free to watch films noirs all year, but read more
