Cary Grant: The Vault Collection - Cary Grant: The Vault Collection focuses on the first 5 years of his career where the man born as Archibald Leach transforms into the iconic persona of Cary Grant that he is associated with today.

Featuring 18 films released between 1932 and 1936, the collection showcases the actor as he perfects his comedic timing and stretches his dramatic skills in a variety of roles alongside such Hollywood legends as Marlene Dietrich, Mae West, Sylvia Sidney, Charles Laughton, Gary Cooper, Randolph Scott and Fredric March. Including his feature film debut, This Is the Night, as well as several Pre-Code dramas and comedies plus 5 films never before available to own, Cary Grant: The Vault Collection is a rare look at the origins of a man who once famously remarked "Everyone wants to be Cary Grant. Even I want to be Cary Grant."

Films Include: This Is the Night (1932); Devil and the Deep (1932); Blonde Venus (1932); Hot Saturday (1932); Madame Butterfly* (1932); She Done Him Wrong (1933); The Woman Accused* (1933); The Eagle and the Hawk (1933); Gambling Ship* (1933); I’m No Angel (1933); Thirty Day Princess (1934); Kiss and Make-Up (1934); Ladies Should Listen* (1934); Enter Madame!* (1935); Wings in the Dark (1935); The Last Outpost (1935); Big Brown Eyes (1936); Wedding Present (1936) *Previously Not Available to Own

The Bib-iest of Nickels
I bought four films at Family Video for five dollars. Good deal, I'd say. I bought Crimson Peak (a solid film from Del Toro, very stylish. This film seemed to get mixed reviews, but I liked it more than Pans or The Devil's Backbone.), Reign Over Me (along with Funny People, this exhibits just how capable Adam Sandler is as an actor.), The Wrestler (extremely good film. Highly recommended.), and Moonrise Kingdom (haven't seen, been meaning to watch more Wes Anderson though).

re: Crimson Peak. Right on! That's my fave del Toro actually.

300: Rise of an Empire (2014)
I selfishly got it for Eva Green and that awesome spine armour. Headey is still there, but, in what seems to be a lesser role.

The Aviator is actually one of my favorite films.


I first discovered Paper Moon in my Film Study class, and I have been meaning to revisit it ever since. I liked it a fair bit.



The last DVD I bought was The Terminal, as a Christmas gift because by boyfriend looks for it every single time we're in a DVD shop but it never seems to be there.

Next one I intend to buy is another gift... either The West Wing box set or Game of Thrones box set. Undecided.



You mean me? Kei's cousin?

Got this from Best Buy since I miss the first half-hour whenever I see it on cable and I really like everything that comes after. Seeing it in its original R-rated form from beginning to end without commercials should be... interesting to say the least. Also, why isn't Free Fallin' on the included soundtrack CD?
