The Long Long Trailer (1953)- Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Comedy that seems closer to a Greek tragedy. I can't believe that guy allowed his wife to talk him into a 40' long trailer that they are going to tow around while he has a traveling job. I could easily imagine the final scene being of a car and trailer gong off the side of a mountain, two screaming faces and a big explosion. 
A much wiser choice.
Lol.
I'm a 10C movie fan too.
I am nothing if not good for a laugh. And I love John Richardson in 1MYBC...unga bunga binga bunga...
(actually I've liked him in every film I've seen him in. Not many but they were all fun. )
Man, that poster makes it seem like the Taxi was Corbin's primary mode of transportation throughout the movie.
Yeah it does look that way a little. A poster for only one short scene in the whole movie.
My Fair Lady (1964)- Best Picture 1964, has to be one of the finest musicals ever. I can't believe that Audrey Hepburn was not nominated for an Academy Award. I believe the reason is she did not sing all of her songs. Those that were dubbed, were actually sung by Marni Nixon. Not only that but the guy who sang On The Street Where You Live was dubbed too! link, link2. Julie Andrews won that year for Mary Poppins.

I saw that was going to be on the other day and forgot to record it!
I'll have to check the TCM iPad app and see if it's still available to stream.
"Shop Around the Corner" is on TCM today at 2pm est.
Right? How could anyone go wrong with Charleton Heston?
Hear! Hear! Something my mom always says, when Charlton Heston was in a movie how could it be bad?
Excellent! Just in time to find out too! I'll set the DVR for it. Thanks for letting me know.

A movie that I have never grown out of is The Sound of Music. Rodgers and Hammerstein's best known musical. I have loved it since 1965. I actually had a crush on Julie Andrews when I was a kid.
Every year around Christmas I watch it. Being an old music major in college has helped me never tire of this wonderful movie.
[edit] Huge fan of Charlton Heston and the Ten Commandments [/edit]

LOL! Poor Glenn... BTW, there's a sequel that came out a year later I think.. 1958?
This would make a great double bill with The Incredible Shrinking Man, also from 1957 (and imho a much better movie), with a screenplay by Richard Matheson.

Thumbs up. It's one of the many classic Sci-Fi/horror movies I have on DVD.
Ahh yes, that one is in my collection too! Perhaps later today or tomorrow to finish the series off.
WOW SandboxGeneral, I'm pretty sure I'm way older than you, but you like the same old movies as I do. I'm impressed!Ahh yes, that one is in my collection too! Perhaps later today or tomorrow to finish the series off.
Well, I may have it mentioned previously, but I used to watch these sort of movies as a kid on Saturday afternoons in the 80's. I've grown fond of them, no matter how corny they may be.

I guessed it right. I am much older. I grew up in the 60's. That being said "corny" is my middle name! lol!
lol, yeah I was only born in 1978... Just a young'un...
I'm feeling really old right now. I was born in 1952. But I still laugh when somebody farts. I guess I'm not that old!
One of my favorite childhood movies, which I feel holds up well today. Won an academy award for special effects!
Enjoyable movie, Not sure how true to the book although special effects not on par with WotW.
