Just Writing Another Late Post

Posted on September 2, 2019 by mohawkvalleygirl

Yes, I did it again. I failed to make my blog post on the day intended. That’s two days in a row I did that, although I suppose regular readers noticed that. I am going through a really rotten writing period (oh how I wished I could think of a word with an “r” sound to be alliterative!).

The answer, of course, is to Write, Just Write. If I can’t write one thing, I can try something else, as long as I am getting words on paper or screen. So here I am, getting words on screen. Good words? Entertaining words? I don’t ask for miracles. I just write.

I scrolled through my Media Library twice looking for these pictures

We had a very nice Sunday with deck sitting before it rained followed by a few good movies. We had a mini Judith Anderson film festival, with And Then There Were None and Laura. Then we continued the murder theme with Columbo. We only have one season of on DVD. I would like to have the entire series.

I don’t remember this shot from the movie, but it is a good picture of Anderson.

This one is from Laura..

I always say this is the real love story in the picture, and I don’t think I spoil anything by saying that, in case you never saw the movie. By the way, if you never saw the movie, I highly recommend it.

Sorry, no pictures of Columbo, although I thought I had one. Anyways, this will have to do for my Sunday post. On the brighter side, for me at any rate, this is a three day weekend. Will I get anything useful done? Will I have a Mohawk Valley adventure? Will I make my Monday post on Monday? For the answers to these and other questions, stay tuned to Mohawk Valley Girl.

And Then There Was Laura on a Hot Tin Roof

Posted on November 5, 2018 by mohawkvalleygirl

I thought of that title when we were mapping out our movie viewing for the day, and Steven insisted that I use it. I started out just wanting to watch an Agatha Christie adaptation. I picked And Then There Were None (1945) because it is black and white and I have been really into black and white movies lately.

The movie is near and dear to my heart.

I don’t know many of the actors in it, but the movie features one of my favorites: Judith Anderson. I suggested we next watch Laura (1944) then Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958) and make it a Judith Anderson film festival. Then I thought of the above title, and our plans were set.

I don’t know who the actor is. Sorry.

I actually do not remember this scene in the movie, but I thought it was a good picture of Anderson. I would have loved to play Anderson’s role when Ilion Little Theatre did And Then There Were None (which was before my blogging days). At that time, a smaller part was better for me, and I did enjoy it.

Anderson with Vincent Price, who is not a creepy sculptor or scientist in this one.

I have always said that the real love story in Laura is between Judith Anderson and Vincent Price: “He’s no good, but he’s what I want.” If you have never seen the movie, I highly recommend it.

There she is, in the back!

I couldn’t find a good picture of Anderson in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and I got tired of looking. I think this is the last movie we have with Judith Anderson, so we must move in a different direction if we wish to continue our Cinema Sunday. I hope my readers (if any) are having an enjoyable day.
