We review film #44: “The Philadelphia Story”…the 1940 romantic comedy where Katharine Hepburn plays Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant is Sheldon from ‘The Big Bang Theory’, and drunk Jimmy Stewart is brilliant.

We review film #45: “Shane”…the 1953 western were a wanderer comes into town and ends up helping people before riding off alone at the end.  Just like every other popular western.

We review film #46: “It Happened One Night”…the 1934 where a guy falls in love with the woman he initially hates after being forced to be with her.  You know…that trope.  But they did it so well!

We review film #49: “Intolerance – Love’s Struggle Throughout the Ages”…the 1916 silent film that tells the meaning behind the Hollywood Highland Complex design.  Oh and it’s also this massively epic flop of a film about people in different color coding times across the world.

We review film #50: “Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring”…the 2001 film where everyone does stuff and then passes off the responsibility to everyone else.  Oh and there’s walking.  And smoking.  And jump scares.  And a Sean Bean death scene.

We review film #51: “West Side Story”…the 1961 film about a young girl who falls in love with a young boy from an apposing clan, and even though they’ve only known each other for a few short days is willing to forgive the accidental murder of her relative.  It isn’t until the friend tells the opposing clan […]

We review film #52: “Taxi Driver”…the 1976 film that shows what happens when you drive taxi’s for a living in a post-Vietnam world…YOU GO CRAZY…and then are perfectly okay again.

We review film #53: “The Deer Hunter”…the 1978 film that shows exactly what a weekend in Wisconsin is like during the first hour, reiterates that VIETNAM WAS A BAD IDEA in the second hour, and finally showing why VIETNAM WAS A BAD IDEA in the third hour.
