12 Angry Men.

What a good movie that was. I could have some factual nitpicks, but what's the point? It's a movie! And darned good one. Some of the acting is probably overplayed for today's audiences, but that's an after-the-fact observation. i enjoyed it all the way through.

Henry Fonda was understated, and thank you. Lee J. Cobb ran away with the rage-fueled acting chops. And the old man was the most interesting one there.

I hadn't seen it before. Now I'm glad I have.
I think some of the acting was 'stage acting', KWIM? They played it big, like it was for distance, not camera work. I notice that in a lot of old movies, but I don't care :)

Watch GILDA again...most of it, anyhoo. It's cool, but...dang it, I just wanna break their forth wall and scream at Glenn Ford, "get a different job! Anything! Hell, go teach hoodlums in some unnamed inner city school, might do you some good, rock around the clock and what not. Who knows, maybe you and the little women can retire in Kansas, and raise a wayward Kryptonian baby."

But I dont. He wouldn't listen. He only has ears (and eyes) for the cardsharps, for cheaters, and most of all, for Gilda..."Who? Me?"

Aw, Rita Hayworth ain't bad, but for my damn money, the best noir babes were Gloria Graham, Jane Greer, and Bacall.

Rewatched Grave Encounters. Realized horror mpvie make me really, really scared now. I don't know why but now for me it's a bit challenge to watch scary stuff now...

The Babadook. A little boy finds a book about a creature called Babadook... I guess it's like Boogeyman in some way. The movie is not so good, I liked the trailer, but it should have been the only thing I watched from the movie...
