For me, I think I’ve only watched one new one.

Bombshell (1933) I really wanted to see a “scandalous” pre-code and this was recommended. I can imagine that it was a bit shocking 90+ years ago but no longer. I thought actually the story was interesting and found it rather modern in the ways we view and treat celebrities today. Worth a watch.

    It might have been two months ago, but I saw Funny Girl (1968) recently and loved it. It’s amazing to see the start of someone so prolific and to understand their career as a result.

    Barbara Streisand may be known more on the internet by her effect, but she was and still is a huge talent!

    Just saw A Thousand and One Nights (1945), and cannot for the life of me figure out what Phil Silvers was doing in that movie. He was so out of place.
