Movie You're Watching Tonight

Took your tip and watched it last night. Very enjoyable late '60s heist film that took quite a few liberties with the Great Train Robbery. I'd never seen it. Stanley Baker always put me in mind a little of Sean Connery.

The graininess of the late '60s-'70s films is so recognizable. I often wondered about that, and then I heard a film expert say that it was due to the film stock of the day. Later the film was of higher quality, and then of course digital came along.

To Be or Not to Be.
A Jack Benny classic now on TCM.


Just this hour returned from the bar where Clark Gable sat while crews brought down Carol Lombards remains from an airplane crash nearby above on Mt Potosi.

His cigarette burns are still on the bar.

Theirs a wall and display dedicated to the tragedy.*
