It's key to the plot that Claire's old flame used to talk to her about the earth and would never have moved away from his homeland of Tuscany.

The unwilling mariner's father is prominent in the early part of the story.

The Apple co-founder works his way up.


Here are my five reviews.

Lemmy in for #1379.



Jean Muir’s character, Lois, is too down too earth for the fast and loose society crowd she was born into.

Leatrice Joy is a fast and loose society flapper who is sent to prison for manslaughter following an automobile accident.

Joe E. Brown’s relationship with Winnie Lightner goes beyond professional as the two gym workers train an aspiring wrestler.

5/5. I didn’t expect to be voting for two sledge/going downhill reviews this week. (I saw Citizen Kane for the first time.)

You've definitely taken your time getting round to it.

I only really like watching films at the cinema, but I've never seen it listed in places that rerun classics and that's all gone out of the window this year anyway. I have looked it up from time to time but never found an online source, but then I was browsing iPlayer on an actual television for I think the first time ever and it turned out they have a handful of silver-screen classics on there. I watched Bringing Up Baby straight afterwards, although I had seen that before.

Anyway, I think it's logical to spread out classics over one's lifetime. Otherwise, after a certain point the only films that one could see for the first time would be new releases. This is why spoilers don't have a cut-off date.
