I know, I know. I really must correct this soon.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
We have so many movies, it isn't even funny. The GF has a movie illness (a DVD illness, to be more precise since we have TV shows like crazy, too). This weekend we watched Gentlemen's Agreement with Gregory Peck (yum) and Public Enemy with James Cagney.

I finally got my Amazon delivery--all musicals, all the time! I got the boxed set of all the "That's Entertainment!" movies, the two-disc SE of "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers," and the boxed set of Classic Musicals, including "The Band Wagon," "Easter Parade," "Brigadoon," "Bells Are Ringing," and "Finian's Rainbow." Add in the CD of The Planets, and I still only spent just over $100. Not too bad!

Jeff is one of my all-time favs for humorous sidekick, and Van Johnson is perfect for the part. The scene in the NY bar after they come back from Scotland is a stitch:
Bartender: Your tab, sir, is very high.
Jeff: So am I!!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I always felt sorry for poor Jeff, all left out when Brigadoon "closed"...

Ann, that's a ferret.

Seconding the above, but for my money, "Almost Like Being in Love" will always be Gene Kelly's finest hour.
I realize this makes me a heretic.
