Saturday Afternoon at the Movies

This idea came from a Facebook meme:
Over 10 days, post your 10 all time favorite films. What movie has really made an impact on you or what films can you watch over and over and never tire of? Post either the movie poster, DVD cover or even a screenshot on your timeline. No need to explain.

Only I had a hard time picking out just 10 movies so my favorites over the next few hundred Saturdays 😸 in semi-alphabetical order:me favorite films.

  2. Hmmm. Do I remember this film? Bits of if. But I certainly remember the song. Talk about something being a classic. But can I sing more than the first couple of lines, nope. Happy Saturday. Hugs-Erika

  5. I obviously never saw this in the movie theater, but DID see it in a musical put on by our local theatrical group years ago. It was fun to sing along with the songs, at least the ones I'd heard before.

    BTW, I just got home from being gone and got something from you. Wanted to let you know it was here and will open it as soon as I visit everyone. Thank you in advance, dear CJ.

    1. I never saw this in the movie theater, either, only on television. And it was a play before it was adapted for film.
