I also ordered The Big Parade on blu-ray, which will be here in a few days. I'm a little weary of that one, only because I've never been great with war films for some reason, and that's a two and a half hour long one. All that means, though, is my expectations are lowered. Which is a good thing. I'm hoping it'll surprise me and I will love it!
Just a bit of nonsense info for all of you, sometimes "The Big Parade" is said to be the highest-grossing silent film of all-time. But I tend to agree with others, unfortunately, that it is probably the second highest-grossing film. The highest being "The Birth of a Nation". (I don't like that one at all - never did )
I feel like the absolute worst HoF host ever! I do. I feel bad that I haven't been able to be around like I should've been. And it seems particularly bad because this is my first time hosting one of these. What sort of reputation am I developing from that happening?! Anyway, I am sorry for my apparent periodic absences. The first "leave" was something that kind of consumed my time. The past few days, though, were just ridiculous. Windows was updating for two days and then I thought everything was fine. And then it spent the past two days updating again! Hopefully that will be it now. Hopefully!!
Anyway, since I can actually use my computer today, as soon as I sign off of here, I will finally watch "The Crowd". Then I will start to contribute my thoughts.
