  • Wow - loving the love for Mitchum here! Out of the Past and The Night of the Hunter are easily two of my very favorite films of all time and no one is better than Mitchum on screen! Anyway, I saw Allied last night - which was pretty good. Nothi…

  • One might assume from my username that I'm a fan of jazz.... You'd be right. Lately, I've really been into Chick Corea's The Vigil album with Marcus Gilmore on drums, Tim Garland on sax and Charles Altura on guitar (who I saw at the NYC club "Smalls…

  • Lucky for us, the Bond series offers a variety of films - if I want to see a very Flemingesque spy thriller, I'll grab From Russia With Love or Casino Royale off the shelf; if I want something light, I'll pop in Live and Let Die or Moonraker. That's…
