I’m not gonna lie — I’m watching football tomorrow, but that’s why God made DVR isn’t it? Something for everyone tomorrow… I dithered between this and Foreign Correspondent, but I loves me some Gothic tales. Samson and Delilah is also on — and I loves me some Hedy Lamarr. Wuthering Heights is on again (already a Pick O’ the Day last month). The original Pink Panther is on and except for the fights with Cato and some spots those films have becomes mostly dated. In the evening is Fellini’s 8 1/2 and Juliet of the Spirits. And overnight is On the Beach — a nuclear war horror tale.

Rebecca — a gem with a perfect cast. Someone wrote that Joan Fontaine was ideally cast…that she stood and moved about as if she had no spine, which of course fit the Second Mrs DeWinter to a T.
Very good movie. One of the greats!
Didn’t see this today though I have seen it before. It does have a wonderful cast. I like Joan Fontaine very much, especially so in “Suspicion” with Cary Grant.
