Oaters are at the top of my list this spring, especially after a recent trip out West to see the haunts of legendary cowboys and lawmen, both real and Hollywood-made. I' read more

Classic Films in Focus: PHANTOM STALLION (1954)

Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Apr 4, 2013

Fans of the singing cowboy genre epitomized by Roy Rogers and Gene Autry will remember Rex Allen as the star of a number of similar Westerns turned out by Republic Pictures in the 1950s, beginning with The Arizona Cowboy (1950).

Classic Films in Focus: MCLINTOCK! (1963)

Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Apr 2, 2013

Maureen O'Hara is classic Hollywood's poster girl for the battle of the sexes.
