I've been watching classic movies for about 7yrs. I got into them when my son was a baby and there was nothing else to watch during the 4am feedings. Lol

Trying to send you a message,but not sure if it's sending or not. I love to join the Facebook group. Be great to talk to you all again,and the movies were watching.

I'd be surprised if your local store does have Viva Zapata. I don't know if it's officially on DVD anywhere in our region.

I live in a metropolitan area, but even my library system only has only one old VHS copy of it. If I didn't have it on laser disc I'd be shit outa luck.

However, the fact that it's going to be on TCM -- for the first time -- is a heartening sign. That sometimes happens before a DVD is issued.

So make sure you get hold of the TCM broadcast.

The Professor started the TCM thread, but asked me to take over when he had to attend to personal business.

My pick-fives are not always what I think are the best of the month. More often than not they're just the films that I feel like writing about at the moment.

But this month don't miss Viva Zapata on the 26th.

If you really wanna make yourself sick on my recommendations you might pass a few hundred spare hours on some sites established by Just Gus -- as, for example, his various western threads and the thread devoted to highlighting favorite all-time performances.

There you'll find reviews and tips galore. On the "performance" thread I tried to soften my pomposity by peppering my text with stills from the films. So you'll at least have the pleasure of seeing some pictures while you denounce me for my asshole opinions.
