This horror movie stars Bette Davis, Olivia de Havilland, Joseph Cotten and Mary Astor, with Agnes Moorehead. Davis plays a older lady who has lived in her mansion since the terrible murder of her boyfriend. Havilland, her sister, comes to try to help her out.

Desk Set
This movie stars Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn with Gig Young and Joan Blondell. Hepburn plays a lady who works in a library research place. Tracy comes in and wants to computerize everything, but by doing that, everyone will be out of a job. This is a really funny movie, and Tracy and Hepburn are GREAT together on screen!! I give this movie a A!

It has 13 tracks, and you can buy the special edtion with a 20 minute making-of dvd. He sings with Faith Hill, Brian McKnight, and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. With gutarist, Andy Mckee. Josh Groban sings all the great Christmas songs, such as “Little Drummer Boy”, “Silent Night”, “Ave Maria”, “Thankful”, and many more. I LOVED this cd!

I give it a C-.

Vivian Leigh
Vivian Leigh was born on Nov 5, 1913 in India. When she was only six years old, her parents sent her to a boarding school. Their she fell in love with acting! In the 30’s she went to Hollywood to try to become a actress. Her first movies didn’t do very well, but in 1939, she made one of the best movies ever made, “Gone with the Wind”! She married Laurence Oliver in 1940, and they made several movies together and did many plays too. Leigh died in 1967 from chronic tuberculosis. She made only 19 movies, but many of them are now classics.

This color musical stars Gene Kelly and Judy Garland! Garland plays a gal who is in love with a legendary pirate, Macoco. Kelly plays a travling singer, and by accident, Garland mistakenly thinks that he is Mococo, and falls in love with him, even though she’s engaged! This movie did not do very well when it came out, I don’t know why! I LOVE it, it’s a great movie! Kelly and Garland are a GREAT team, it’s a good story, and has great music numbers like “Nina”, “Mack the Black”, ”Love of My Life”, “You Can do No Wrong”, and “Be a Clown”. I give this movie a A!
Girl Crazy
This movie stars Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney. Rooney plays a rich boy who’s ‘girl crazy’. His dad decides to send him to a male-only college to try to get his mind off of girls, and more on his studies!! When he gets there, he finds that the college is failing. He also meets the only girl, Garland, who delivers the mail! This is one of my favorite Mickey and Judy movies! It has GREAT music numbers including, “Treat Me Rough”, “Embraceable You” and “I Got Rhythm”! I give this movie a A++!!
All this and Heaven too.
This movie stars Bette Davis and Charles Boyer with Jeffrey Lynn, Barbara O’Neil, Virginia Weilder, and Henry Daniell. It’s based on the novel by Rachel Field. Davis plays a governess in the sad household of Boyer. Boyer plays a man who has a rather mean and cruel wife who becomes extremely jealous of Davis because she thinks she’s stealing the love of her children. This is a GREAT movie! I give it a A++!
Return To HalloweenTown
This Original Disney Channel movie stars Sara Paxton and Lucas Grabell (HSM and HSM2). Paxton plays a ‘good witch’ (think like the “Bewitched” tv show) who goes to the witches university to study magic and find out who she really is, but runs into some bully’s! This was a ‘cute’ but kiddish movie. Okay story, good acting, but nothing spectacular. Nice movie, but not a great one! I give it a C-.
