♥️OLD MOVIES! ...you might consider muting #TCMParty. If you're not going to tweet about Chester Morris I am—clearly one of us has to.
She/her, 🇨🇦.

Chester Morris... still adorable as a
middle aged man with glasses.
Here on (gameshow) 'To Tell the Truth',
Sep 15, 1959.

Funny story. Last night I saw a video of a high voltage electrical worker almost get hurt and thought, "I feel like seeing Manpower (1941) again.".
Looking at tonight's movies, I noticed Canada 🇨🇦 won't be getting La Vie En Rose (1997) @ 10:30PM ET—but guess what we get instead...?
Yup...

Chester Morris and Wendy Barrie in
Pacific Liner (1939). A tense little drama about an epidemic breaking out on a ship. Has a great cast including Victor McLaglen, Barry Fitzgerald and Alan Hale.

Not sure if I can go from Mickey Rooney noir to pirate movies... #TCMParty

Still too much talking and not nearly enough jazz greats musical numbers.

That confession...
"Stan, they're waiting for you over at Fluff's."
This script is kind of bad, I think.

This outright "ownership" thing is obnoxious. #TheStrip #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Kay Brown has a sweet, adorable kind of voice. #TheStrip #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Geez, he's only known her a few days and he's already trying to get her to marry him and discuss how many kids they want. "Why should *I* wait?" I don't know, I guess it's all about you Stan.

Yeah, Stan LOVES kids.

It's like Stan doesn't even like his wife.

If The Small Back Room (1949), about a damaged weapons specialist in tense, wartime London, is not noir, it certainly looks and feels like noir. We focus on Powell and Pressburger's Technicolor feasts–but this tense, claustrophobically intimate film is a gem. Incredible performances. #Noirvember

Robert Young ...cute as a button.

"LADIES prefer brunettes. And one of the favorite dark-and-handsome heroes in Hollywood is Chester Morris. The fact that Chet is a happy husband doesn't still fluttering hearts of the girls out front."

Most awkward still photo session ever?
Morris and Lombard are BEAUTIFUL but what's the photographer's goal? If they want a cheesecake photo of Carole–why work Chester into it? Indoor sand? If this weird pose and setting foreshadows something coming between them-why is she smiling? So confusing-lol
Chester Morris and Carole Lombard in Sinners in the Sun. (1932)
