I just watched THE BISHOP'S WIFE for the first time last week and the first thing that struck me was now I know where the creator's of TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL got their idea from. The film, needless to say, is much better than the TV series with, if for no other reason, such a superb cast. I can gush over Barbara Stanwyck all day, both of her Christmas themed films are wonderful, though admittedly, I preferred REMEMBER THE NIGHT, which BTW, I will be posting an article on, most likely on Wednesday. Garland's version of HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS cannot be beat, it is just beautiful. Great choices!<br /><br />If we don't "talk" before old Santa arrives, here's wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas! <br /><br />JohnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8509825018139758536.post-54649834667702144972011-12-18T23:36:20.428-08:002011-12-18T23:36:20.428-08:00'Gypsy - I watched IT HAPPENED ON 5TH AVE. ton...'Gypsy - I watched IT HAPPENED ON 5TH AVE. tonight, a sweet film that will air on TCM at least once again this year. I decided to pick up REMEMBER THE NIGHT on Amazon (that YouTube video is not bad quality, but I prefer a viewing area larger than a few inches). I think you're right about Peggy Lee, she's never disappointed me yet (love her version of "Cheek to Cheek"). Wishing you holidays that are merry and bright and a great 2012...The Lady Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963115499930520653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8509825018139758536.post-26313882036184620412011-12-18T15:23:35.112-08:002011-12-18T15:23:35.112-08:00I wouldn’t mind a bit of the frightful and the exc...I wouldn’t mind a bit of the frightful and the excuse for a bit of the delightful. However, the chance to see a few favorite Christmas films has always worked wonders putting me in the mood for a “White Christmas” in Connecticut or Manhattan. I don’t mind that TCM changes up the schedule every year; it is always a nice surprise to see who will be on the guest list (looking forward to “It Happened On Fifth Avenue” this evening). You can never go wrong with Peggy Lee; she makes everything from a dance at Christmas to black coffee sound simply sublime. My best wishes to you and yours for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.whistlingypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06126688373252306609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8509825018139758536.post-9689869464099322702011-12-18T10:43:14.861-08:002011-12-18T10:43:14.861-08:00Yvette - I can't imagine why REMEMBER THE NIGH...Yvette - I can't imagine why REMEMBER THE NIGHT didn't air on TCM this year - but here's a link to the film on YouTube (credited to TCM) without interruption, 1 hour 33 min.

He was always falling for the wrong dames - wasn't he? That was part of his goofy charm. Ha!<br /><br />I love vintage Christmas movies. They just don't make 'em as good anymore.<br /><br />Well, that's not a news bulletin. :)Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.com
