I am so tired of this heat!!! There, I complained. I have been all day on and off Facebook and have not, but now I did. And I have more blog followers than I have Facebook friends, which gives me no virtue for refraining to complain there only to complain here. So judge me if you are so inclined. Never mind that, I want to make a blog post, even if I feel too wrung out and mildewy to do so. Pretty much all I have done today is to watch movies, so how about a Non-Sequitur Thursday movie post? I’ll even include pictures.
Up the stairway, into the unknown…
We began our movie watching with The Haunting, the 1963 original, not the pathetic remake. It is an excellent movie I have written about before, extremely scary using only sound effects, lighting, and acting.
I’m thinking they don’t want chicken for dinner.
We continued our movie watching with another movie from 1963, The Birds. It is a perennial favorite of ours.
All that beauty, all that talent!
Next I suggested Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958), because it takes place where it is very very hot, so we could totally identify. Steven agreed that he could not object if I left him for Paul Newman. I feel the same way about him and Elizabeth Taylor, although we did not discuss that.
There’s a Rogue’s Gallery, if you like.
My next suggestion was Hush… Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964), because it was another southern movie. Bette Davis, Cecil Kellaway, Agnes Moorehead, just to name our favorites! In fact, I think I will close with Bette Davis, in a shot I have used for my Facebook profile picture. I loves me some Bette Davis.
