Whoever invented the DVR and TIVO is a freakin' genius! You can record a show or movie and watch it later and it has at least 100 hours of memory. There is a downside, though, now you have to go back and watch all you recorded. I mostly DVR films that come on Turner Classic Movies (the best station ever!). Between January 14 and today, I racked up around 10-15 films I wanted to watch. They had some great films on that I had not seen before. Here are some movies I have watched so far...
The Marrying Kind-a couple recalls their divorce to a judge. I fast-forwarded through a lot of it.
The Black Book-also ff'd, but the film cut off right before the main character was about to be struck. Oh, it's about the French Revolution.
The Garden of Allah-Marlene Dietrich marries monk Charles Boyer. It's short.
A Bill of Divorcement-Katharine Hepburn's 1st film! She plays the daughter of John Barrymore who has spent many years in a mental institution. When he comes back home, Barrymore discovers his wife has divorced him and in love with someone else. Now that SUCKS.
Until They Sail-four sisters and their love lives in WWII New Zealand. OK with a young Paul Newman as the male lead.
The Actress-Ruth Gordon who many know as "Maude" from Harold and Maude wrote this screenplay adapted from her autobiographical play about her decision to become an actress. Nothing much to say here, I like any movie with Spencer Tracy.
The Impatient Years-a young couple marries during a four-day courtship and the guy ships off to fight in the war. He comes back and after two days living together, they want to divorce. The judge, along with the bride's father's advice, rules that the duo recreate their honeymoon in order to save the marriage.
