and it's happy to see you!

Good heavens! Well, that was quite an unexpected hiatus. But, I'm back now. Hooray! And ready to get back to work here. Let's see, to start things off on the right foot, I'll get back to a much-neglected post series I had been about to start and never really went through with: movies I want to watch.

First off, I'd like to boast a little bit. This New Year's, I made a resolution to watch 50 movies I'd never seen before and read 20 books. I've actually already surpassed the book goal - just finished #22 - and I'm well underway on the movie goal - I watched #21 earlier this month. It's a fun resolution. It has its ups and downs though. In trying so hard to watch new things, I haven't really gotten around to watching old favorites quite as frequently. This isn't bad, exactly, but I have missed some old friends.

Anyhow, here's a movie I've been wanting to see but haven't yet gotten around to it: Sullivan's Travels.

It seems to be a really good movie. But I can't tell whether it's a comedy or a drama and that bothers me. I really don't like dramas that masquerade as comedies and so I've avoided it. But Veronica Lake does look positively adorable in a hat.

Marriage is okay if you wanna be

Today is video day!! I'm actually going to post a couple of videos. One as my spotlight and then another one just for fun. The first video is a clip from The More the Merrier. I saw this movie years ago but found myself returning to it when I read Meredith's blurb about it on her blog. I looked the scene up and instantly fell in love with it. It is, in my opinion, one of the sexiest scenes ever. Plus, it's hilarious. Plus, I love her dress.



Okay, so my other video is a video that I made just in time for Valentine's Day. I used Emma Wallace's song sketch and inserted some of my favorite film kisses. What do you think?



So, now for the interactive portion of our program. First of all, I still have this month's poll up. Don't forget to vote for your favorite Marx brother!

Second of all, I'm currently working on a new video and I'm using some seduction scenes... but I'm running out of ideas! So, I was hoping some of you could give me some suggestions. I'm open to movies both new and old. If the scene is on YouTube, that's even better and it would really help me out if you could include a link. I'm using a lot of the scene above and also a scene from It Should Happen to You. I've got lots of videos I'm using but rather than list them out, I'd like to hear what you think. Any good seduction scenes? Let me know!
