#NowPlaying: ‘Gabriel Over the White House’ (1933)

‘A hack US president sees the angel Gabriel after a near-fatality & believes his calling is to be a populist dictator but faces violent pushback.’

Both prescient & bizarre, this pre-Code was a big hit at the time but has faded into obscurity.

Manning (or mousing?) the register for a long 8 AM to 9 PM haul of Christmas events at the orchard.

#NowPlaying: ‘The Crime of the Century’ (1933)

‘At odds with his wife, a doctor arranges for the perfect crime. The twist? He confesses to the police before it can be carried out … and dares them to stop it.’

A hyperbolic pre-Code whodunnit with an intermission for the audience to figure it out.

#NowPlaying: ‘Son of Paleface’ (1952)

‘Bob Hope goes West to claim his father’s fortune only to have a bounty put on him.’

A superior sequel to 1948’s ‘The Paleface.’ Basically a live-action cartoon (the director worked on Loony Tunes)! Full of innuendo & how’d they do that sight gags. Fun!

#NowPlaying: ‘One Touch of Venus’ (1948)

‘A store clerk kisses a statue of Venus in his store, bringing it to life (turns out it was the real, trapped Venus!). She wants to show her ‘gratitude,’ but the man’s jealous fiancé & furious employer aren’t having it.’

Cute musical comedy!

#RodentRepresentation

I'm excited for this one! Feels different from the usual Pixar. Maybe more chaotic/surreal.

#NowPlaying: ‘Wicked’ (2024)

‘The ‘real’ story behind The Wizard of Oz, following the origins of the Wicked Witch and The Good Witch on their fated (or not?) paths.’

I’m a sucker for old school, ostentatious musicals, and this fits the bill. Fun time & leads (Erivo & Grande) are terrific.

#JustBaked: Yes, a second batch of turnovers, this one black raspberry (from my very own canes)!

I think they are better than the apple ones? Hard to decide!

#JustBaked: Apple turnovers, Take 2!

They turned out much better this time! In shape, texture, and taste. Flakey and the perfect amount of sweet.

Will probably freeze these for the family for Thanksgiving breakfast.

#NowPlaying: ‘For Love or Money’ (1963)

‘Thelma Ritter, an eccentric widow, pays attorney Kirk Douglas 100 grand to find perfect mates for her 3 perpetually single daughters. He accepts, not expecting them to take a liking to him.’

Frothy Technicolor comedy (maybe the only kind in the 60’s!).

#NowPlaying: ‘Bedtime Story’ (1964)

‘Marlon Brando & David Niven make a living swindling the wealthy. When an attractive heiress enters the picture, they turn on each other to see who can get her money (and other ‘things’) first.’

Very cheeky/saucy. Was remade as ‘Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.’

What will they think of next?

Just baked: Apple Turnovers.

They are very tasty but I wasn’t super efficient with the recipe since it was my first time making any thing like this. Didn’t make enough filling, etc.

I will try again!

#NowPlaying: ‘Two Way Stretch’ (1960)

‘Peter Sellers’ is about to be released from jail & plots a ‘perfect crime.’ He’s going to break out, steal diamonds, and then break back in as if he never left. What could go wrong?’

One of those old school capers you could only do before modern technology.

Now watching: ‘The Bliss of Miss Blossom’ (1968)

‘Shirley MacLaine, unhappy with her British husband, takes on a lover and lets him live in their attic. She juggles the two men until the husband finds out and things take some unexpected hijinks-y turns.’

A very 60’s comedy, colorful and kooky.

Look what just arrived!

Won’t open it until I see the movie next week, though!
