Starting to watch today's programming for the virtual Pordenone Silent Film Festival. One of my favorite things about this festival is seeing how often my Most Obscure and Oldest movies on my Letterboxd stats can change in just a few days.

Every day is National Silent Movie Day for me. My Beyond the Rocks poster is absolutely my favorite thing in my work area at home.

Deck movie season isn't over yet.

If anyone is interested, information for this year's virtual Pordenone Silent Film Festival (October 4-11) is now up on their site. The lowest pass level is about $35, a great deal for several rare silents from around the world. www.giornatedelcinemamuto.it/abbonamenti-...

This one seemed like a good end-of-summer deck movie.

Three hole nipple shield sounds like something you ask for at a body piercing shop.

I was able to score some original lobby cards for A Free Soul on eBay! The bad news is that, very sadly, somebody trimmed them at some point. But the good news is that the color is absolutely incredible and they're still going to look great framed.

I always knew the time would come when a reworked version of a popular song from my youth would end up being used in a commercial. I just really wasn’t expecting that song to be My Neck, My Back.

Looks like we might get some rain later, so I'm starting this weekend's deck movie a little bit early tonight.

It took me a few days, but I worked my way through the entire lineup from Glenda Farrell day on TCM.

Happy Glenda Farrell day on TCM to those who celebrate.

This weekend's deck movie: Clara Bow in It.

It's a pre-code on the deck kind of night.

After a very long week, Buster Keaton on the deck seemed like an excellent way to relax for a bit.

It's a great night to be seeing this legend.

This weekend's deck movie.

Starting a new book for the long weekend. I've been wanting to read this one for a long time.

Did a bunch of hard work in the yard. Now it's time for ice cream and Gold Diggers of 1933.

I really need YouTube to stop recommending this video to me.

Picked up a couple new books from the University Press of Kentucky summer warehouse sale.

Sunday afternoon reading.

I feel like I'm starting deck movie season off a little bit late this year. But since I'm finally getting into it just in time for a heat wave, it only seemed fitting to start with Rear Window.

Since my favorite movie of all time was released 43 years ago today, I'm just going to take the opportunity to post the magnificent E.T. tortilla (Haunted! Strange! Rare!) that's been on eBay for several years now.

Just got an anklet to add a Barbara Stanwyck inspired touch to my summer outfits -- without the homicide and insurance fraud, of course.

I recently heard an interview with the creator of ALF where he called the ALF windsock the most bizarre piece of ALF merch ever made. So of course I had to find one. Even without taking it out of the package, it's so gloriously weird that I want to leave it as is.

Reading on the deck season is back.

With @dorvid4.bsky.social and @materialgirl850.bsky.social in the Egyptian Theatre forecourt. Pre-code ready. #TCMFF

Today seems like an appropriate day to re-share my favorite autograph in my collection: Joan Blondell, who seemed to be having fun on a plane. (No clue if this flight was on 4/20 though.)

My two most recent Blu-ray purchases are very different movies, but I'm here for it. I'm happy to finally own a legit copy of Faster, Pussycat and to finally replace the Flicker Alley calendar I've been reusing since 2022.

It's been a while since I hit up a Criterion flash sale, but A Woman of Paris got me in this time around.

This has turned into an accurate description of my life and I'm not sure how I feel about that. I also seem to think keeping my nails painted will help

I haven't been looking around for autographs a whole lot lately, but I'm really glad I did find this postcard for the Hollywood Canteen signed by Spring Byington, Joan Crawford, Bonita Granville, Doris Lloyd, and Linda Darnell.

Alas, I've reached a point in my life where I'm like, "You know what would really help me feel like I've got my life together? Changing up my skincare routine."

Describe your account in one Simpsons image.

The Gang's All Here is the kind of movie where I'm never sure if I'm too high for this or not high enough.

I've gotten into a rabbit hole of YouTube tarot card readings and now I'm obsessed with one reader who keeps making my life sound soap opera worthy. Now I'm very entertained by this life I must be leading in some alternate dimension.

New Yellowjackets AND Madonna announces a new Bedtime Stories release? Today has been going very well.

Time for every midwesterner's favorite winter game of waiting to see if we end up getting as much snow as expected.

Very relatable indeed.

Currently reading.

All the time I've been collecting vintage clothes, I've wanted a good 1940s suit for my collection and now I finally have one.

Joe trying to explain the premise for The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air to Cameron on Halt and Catch Fire is one of my favorite things to happen on that show.

Posting this for no other reason than because I like how all over the place my recent activity on Letterboxd is right now

Almost 20 years later, I finally got one of these Confessions on a Dancefloor promo shirts to add to my stash of vintage Madonna shirts.

RIP David Lynch

Since I'm very much appreciating all the Kay Francis movies on TCM today, here's my post about her from my Box Office Poison series, which looks at her dispute with Warner Brothers and how it affected her career. hollywoodrevue.wordpress.com/2022/01/03/b...
