Since I’ve been following Turner Classic Movie channel more lately I have found some themes that I like. Last week was Memorial Weekend so they were showing some oldie war films. Gramps and I ended up catching some of the M.A.S.H. movie to rewatch before going to bed. Tonight, Silent Sunday Nights is back with a “Fatty” Arbuckle (aka William Goodrich) film from 1926, The Red Hill. (TCM, Facebook). Looks to be a good calming night.
i was tagged by Getting Through Anxiety to do her movie photo challenge. Here’s Days 1 to 3.
This has been a fun bookish meme where we find a quote from page 56, and the books I’ve chosen have all been my current reads (or such). This is a Friday meme started by Freda @Freda’s Voice.
A Thursday theme of mine here where I’ve been posting some of my old reviews.

Since I’ve been following Turner Classic Movie channel more lately I have found some themes that I liked. Tonight is Silent Sunday Nights on TCM with Silent Films. Tonight is an oldie and a long one, about 3 and a half hours long. It’s the 1923 La Roue film by filmmaker Abel Gance. I’m currently watching that as I type this out (on my new phone). So far the best parts has been the written stuff, though the scene of the image on the violin was good.
I think I like watching these late at night now in order to lull me to sleep. I think it’s the music and the black and white video that does it.
