Holiday Inn: This was the first time I ever saw this movie. I can't remember why but something possessed me to put it on hold, maybe hearing that White Christmas was a sort of sequel to it. Anyway the movie was alright but not my favorite. I'm not a huge fan of either Fred Astaire or Bing Crosby and they're both in this movie. It was a fun concept though, an inn only open on Holidays.

Easter Parade: Fred Astaire and Judy Garland are the stars of this movie and as I've previously mentioned, I'm not a huge fan of either one. It's kind of a tradition to watch this movie every year. I think I liked Holiday Inn better than I like Easter Parade.

The Bourn Identity: I love these movies, I love a spy type action thriller well done, and that serise is just that. I have the spy fascination but I've found that I now prefer to watch something that at least seems like a more realistic spy world, than the gadgeted, and farsical world of spies. This being said I also love Chuck, so it goes both ways I guess. Anyway, if you're into spy/ action coolness, I highly recomend Bourn, however I didn't love the books...and they have a way different plot.
Anything Goes: I got this musical because it has Donald O'Connor and I'm a fan, however it wasn't one of those amazing musicals I felt, just mediocer, but maybe if you really love Cole Porter you'd think better of it, who knows. Bing Crosby's also in it but I'm not a huge fan of his.
Mr. Deed's Goes to Town: I got this to see more of Frank Capra's movies. It wasn't bad but also not my favorite. I assume that Mr. Deed's with Adam Sandler took it's plot from this.
The Big Sleep: Bogie, Bacall, it was the first time I'd seen a movie with both of them. I liked it a lot. I have no idea where the title came from though.
The Bachelor and The Bobby Soxer: I love Carey Grant, however not a favorite, I probably won't watch it again.
The Nun's Story: I got this to see Audrey Hepburn and it was not what I was expecting. It was very interesting, I can't say how accurate because I've never been Catholic, I learned a lot, hopefully not things that aren't true. However even if I ever became Catholic, I never, ever want to be a nun.
