TMWTW- Staying Alive

“Everybody uses everybody, don’t they?”– Tony
Oh, gosh.  Aurabee, you know I adore you, but I just don’t know what making me watch Staying Alive will do to our friendship.  I mean, I’m only as far as the opening credits and the neon pink West Palm Beach font is already constipating me with its cheesiness.  I guess [...]

Hell yeah!

I cared about exactly one category at the Oscars this year:  best original song.  I am overjoyed to say that my pick– Falling Slowly from Once– actually won.  Hooray!

Every year at this time, when I realize TCM is running its “31 Days of Oscar” marathon, I decide to record/watch a bunch of old movies that I feel I should see.  I’m no stranger to the oldies, and there are some that I love beyond reason.  Grand Hotel, however, is not one of those movies.  [...]
