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.

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


Take the High Ground (1953) Richard 😻Widmark, Karl Malden, and (Baby) Russ Tamblyn

If you haven't seen this movie, and you probably haven't as it's not shown very often, it's available for free on YouTube.

  2. You are correct. Not only have I never seen it, I've not even heard of it. Free is good, though.

  3. I like the actors but this one just fell flat for me. That's what makes horse races as they used to say. ;)

    1. Richard Widmark and Karl Malden grew up in the midWest, didn't quite fit the Hollywood scene and became best friends. They made several movies together.

  5. I don't know if I've seen this one. I've seen some Karl Malden films, but I'd need to actually watch this film to know. Hope you didn't get a lot of rain today and are enjoying the steaminess.

    1. This is one of the typical RW war movies, not the best, but it’s Widmark

  9. My husband is an avid (dare I say obsessed even) fan of all sorts of war movies. I am sure he has seen this one!
