Just finished watching a golden oldie that I've never seen before, 'Apartment for Peggy' (1948) A depressed professor who is thinking of ending his life, rents his attic to a young couple. They give him a new sense of purpose & he gives them hope. A lovely comedy drama 📽

Last of Lewton's RKO chillers, a brilliant bleak historical shocker set in Londons notorious asylum. Deliciously dark with superbly sadistic Karloff. 1946. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #film #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

Joining Clifton Webb, Myrna Loy & Jeanne Crain in 'Cheaper by the Dozen' (1950) Not seen this one in a while 📽

Starting my Sunday watching a very welcome Christmas gift, 'True as a Turtle' (1957) starring John Gregson, Cecil Parker, Keith Michell and one of my personal favourites, the lovely June Thorburn. I always enjoy this fun seafaring comedy 📽🌊⛵️

For the National Year of Reading, I've organised a school-wide game of Traitors! The staff are the faithfuls/ traitors & the kids have to complete short reading challenges in order win their favourites shields & banish staff they think are traitors. Kids & staff are hyped! 🤣📚

Margaret Lockwood, Alastair Sim, John Mills, Laurence Olivier, George Sanders, Jean Arthur & Joan Fontaine to mention just a few! Wowsers! This is the channel to be watching tomorrow!

Always enjoy this one 😀📽

Sometimes I feel there are not enough Nelson Eddy and Jeanette Macdonald posts about and they make me so happy 🥰

Settled in with my favourite Disney cartoon 🥰 'Sleeping Beauty' (1959) 📽

Today in the library... Library Monitor: Miss, I heard there was a murder in Gateshead and I thought of you straight away! Me: oh bless you I'm fine Library Monitor: No I thought you'd killed someone & was wondering if kids could visit in prison 😒

Starting Sunday off with Cary Grant, Janet Blair, William Demarest, Ted Donaldson and James Gleason in 'Once Upon a Time' (1944) A film about a dancing caterpillar. What's not to love? 🤣📽

Buster Keaton had so many good short films but the ones I always go back to are 'One Week' and 'Haunted House' ooohh and 'The Scarecrow' just for the house scene 🤣

Today's selection from the Hammer horror archives: #nowwatching Curse of the Werewolf (1961). Probably the least successful of Hammers classic monster revivals, featuring a ravenous werewolf playing the part of Oliver Reed. #horrorsky

This is the first part of one of my dream projects: A retrospective about one of my favorite filmmakers/story tellers of all time: The incomparable Ray Harryhausen!

About to watch 'The Major and the Minor' (1942) never seen it before & it certainly doesn't sound like something that could be made today 🤣 but it's Ginger Rogers and Ray Milland so I'll give it a whirl 📽

One of Hammer's greatest gifts to us 📽

Snow!!! 😀 ❄️❄️❄️
