I really like your quick reveiws Mark. I've seen and absolutely love Jezebel, The Great Ziegfeld, Laura and Destry Rides Again.

About Marlene Dietrich and Madeline Kahn...hehe..I recently watched Dietrich in Witness for the Prosecution and I couldn't help but think about Madeline Kahn's impersonation of her. Kahn was so dead on. I think the two will always be eternally linked for me.


Days of Wine and Roses~ Thanks for the review...I've never seen this but I've noticed it at my library. I'll need to keep this one in mind.

your reviews are top notch as usual..
have to agree with you about days of wine and roses...

Mark????

Sorry. I stopped writing the bi-weekly reviews at #50, and I don't think we'll be starting again. I had started Quick Reviews #11, but haven't gotten very far.

I also started a riddle page (inspired by the riddle website OG directed us to in the "Riddle of Sorts" thread. However, I got about halfway through and put it on hold. If I go any farther, I need to pay double a month on my website account, which I'm not sure I'm ready to do.

To keep my creative energies flowing, I'm currently working on some other things for one of my other interests: pinball. I'll keep you all posted when it "happens."

Noooooooooo

Come back Mark!!!!

We need you,

I have been looking for you at your other site, where are you?

we miss your reviews...(and you) hurry back!!!!

Mark...you're the only one who has consistently reviewed the classics and I've always enjoyed reading your reviews. Even if you still haven't gotten very far in your Quick Reviews #11, you could still just post what you have. You are very much missed around here.
