James Bond in Moonraker Action

Just a fun James Bond to watch. Glad I have it in my collection.  The nice thing as a kid, you can enjoy James Bond as an action hero.  But as an adult you can enjoy the sexual themes

Gave it a 4-Star Rating. 

Remembering Davey Jones

When I heard that Davey Jones of the Monkees had died this week, I immediately felt a piece of my childhood was gone forever.  The Monkees was one of the first TV shows, watching as a kid.

Remembering Whitney Houston

First let me say, I did not follow Whitney Houston all that closely.  But when I did hear her sing I did have to Stop and Listen!  Her voice was just that Incredible!

My hat is off to this year's Grammy Host, L.L. Cool Jay for making the show dignified and memorable.

The Big Bus (1976)

Once VS. Grimm

Once Upon A Time is a clever show that continues the Fairy tales that we all grew up with.  It is shown on ABC, on Sunday evenings at 8 PM.


Whereas, I found NBC's Grimm - A far more dark and grittier show.  It is a glorified cop show with Science Fiction elements, concentrating on beastly mythology.  Despite my Grimm view of the show, (pun intended).  I do like the special effects and the costumes.

De-Lovely Review - (2004)

De-Lovely is a wonderful film and very well done. Kline and Judd do a nice and solid job as the Porters, Cole and Linda. Kevin and Ashley have a very good on-screen chemistry in portraying the Porters. And they age well too. Both of them look quite fashionable, in the '20's and '30's. I also liked Jonathan Pryce's performance as Gabriel.

I also liked the "avon-garde" approach that Irwin used throughout the film of Cole looking back upon his life. Although it can be confusing at first, as people break from present day into the past and back again, just as quickly as singers break into the Master's songs. But the film is expertly cut and edited, leading the audience through smooth transitions.

The film does have a contemporary feel, although it takes place in the first half of the 20th century. The surprising thing to me was using black actors as gondoliers. Giving me the impression that Europe was much more enlightened.
