Oh wow! I can't believe all the great movies that will be shown on Turner Classic Movie Channel this December. Some of these I haven't seen at all and others I haven't seen since I was a kid. In no particular order:
Dec. 1 Nosferatu and Metropolis
Dec. 7 Buster Keaton So funny it Hurt documentry
Dec. 8 Buster Keaton What no Beer? and The Ballonatic
Dec.12 Buster Keaton The General
Dec.13 Harold Lloyd The Freshmen

And get this HBO is showing on Dec. 5 The Life and Death of Peter Sellers starring Geoffrey Rush. Which I've been dying to see. Yes I'm a huge fan of Peter Sellers too. And on Dec. 8 Encore Western Channel will be showing Overland Stage Raiders with John Wayne and Louise Brooks. Now I've never seen this. I assume this was one of her later movies before she passed. If anyone could give me any information on this. It would be much appreciated. Oh tis the season to be watching classic movies.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

I'm now looking forward to the Rush film as well. I knew it was in the works but have heard nothign of it. Is it out on dvd? Was it made just for HBO? I know that at first Rush didn't want to do it; he felt the Sellers of the script--and perhaps of the real world--was too unlikeable.
Sad clowns.
As far as I know this is just for HBO. But give it time. I'm sure it will be released on DVD. I'm very curious to see how Geoffrey Rush portrayed Sellers. The reviews I've been reading have been good. But we'll see.
Happy Holidays!
Ahhh the demise of the thirty-something year olds. We sit and watch movies when we used to actually go out and do things.
*sigh*
Hand me the remote, will ya?
