MovieMedley BLOG: DEAD AGAIN
http://moviemedley.blogspot.com/2006/08/dead-again.html
More Movies, Please. This is a thoroughly enjoyable murder-mystery/modern noir thriller starring Kenneth Branagh. Playing love interests as well as married in real life at the time. The two learn they are also connected to each other in a past life - in the movie, that is, not necessarily in real life. With this interesting twist, the story blends two stories 40 years apart. Kenneth Branagh is convincing as a private-eye. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm a mom and now a grandmom!

MovieMedley BLOG: THE VIKINGS
http://moviemedley.blogspot.com/2006/08/vikings.html
More Movies, Please. This is what entertainment's all about! Directed by (and starring) Kirk Douglas. This movie released in 1958. Ernest Borgnine. Is a Viking king, compelling in this rude/crude role, and Kirk is his son. A viking's life is active, raping and pillaging, and partying at night. I read somewhere that this film was tops in the box office for the 1950's, and I'd believe it. Believes he's a slave. Can't imagine a better lookin' slave, rivaled only by his other slave role in Spartacus!

MovieMedley BLOG: SE7EN
http://moviemedley.blogspot.com/2006/08/se7en.html
More Movies, Please. This clever and gruesome film was released in theaters in 1995. Definitely not for the squeamish but if you can even try to peek through fingers, this movie will keep you riveted. Is a soon to retire police investigator, who gets paired with a nearly-rookie, Brad Pitt. Our young hero is married to Gwyneth Paltrow. Is particularly brilliant in his performance as the mad man, but all actors shine in this one creating a stark contrast with the gruesomeness. Nicely done.

MovieMedley BLOG: SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS
http://moviemedley.blogspot.com/2006/08/seven-brides-for-seven-brothers.html
More Movies, Please. SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS. I am interspersing musicals slowly and carefully into my list so as not to scare off my non-musical audience, but this 1954 release is just too good/too fun to pass up. Adam ( Howard Keel. Oh my god, what a voice) needs a wife and zeros in on Milly ( Jane Powell. Of Catwoman fame is one of the kidnapped cuties. They stick her in the back or whisk her out completely for the more involved dance routines, but who cares, it's Julie Newmar!

MovieMedley BLOG: INVINCIBLE
http://moviemedley.blogspot.com/2006/09/invincible.html
More Movies, Please. I ventured to the theater today to see Invincible, starring Mark Wahlberg. Mark plays Vince Papale, a bartender who tries out for the Philadelphia Eagles. This movie has a lot of heart. It also stars Greg Kinnear. As the coach.as new to the team as Vince is. Elizabeth Banks. Is a potential love interest, as Janet, cousin of the bar owner where Vince is employed. Her character is quite charming while rooting for the NY Giants in the heart of Philly.
