Oh, joy! After months waiting for this blogging event to arrive, we can now celebrate the lovely Jean Simmons who would have been 90 years old next January 31. The blogathon honouring her starts today, January 29 and will end on the 31. To host, I’m joined by the wonderful Laura from Phyllis Loves Classic […]
Some time ago, my friend blogger Samantha from Musings of a Classic Film Addict suggested we should host a blogathon together. I love her blog so, of course, the idea was highly appealing to me! After looking at some possible subjects (there are so many!), we finally made the choice to host a blogathon in […]
Hello again! Yes, another year will soon be at our door which means… more blogathons of course! You already know that I’ll be honouring Jean Simmons on her 90th birthday at the end of January with Phyllis Loves Her Classic Movies. BUT there’s someone else I’ve been desperate to honour AND invite you to honour […]
Another event has gone by. Time flies! Can’t believe this annual event is already over. It’s been a blast and I was particularly happy with the level of participation this year! Of course, none of this would have been possible without you and without my wonderful co-host, Emily from The Flapper Dame! It’s lucky she […]
Today, the beautiful (and talented!) actress who became a princess would have been 89 years old. Oh dear, to think that without this tragic accident she could still have been with us… As we know, for the occasion, I’m hosting the 4th edition of the Wonderful Grace Kelly Blogathon. This year, I was joined by […]
I don’t watch so many “recent” films, but as I work in a movie theatre, I try to take advantage of my free admission privilege and see some when I have the occasion to. Au revoir là-haut (See You Up There), a 2017’s French film directed by Albert Dupontel was one of them and it’s […]
Yesterday, one of the women who was considered one of the most beautiful figures of the silver screen would have been 104 years old. She’s not with us anymore, but that’s not a valid excuse not to celebrate her. I’m talking about Hedy Lamarr! It’s my blogging friend Samantha from Musings of a Classic Film […]
Two years after the first edition of her Disability in Films Blogathon, Robin from Pop Culture Reverie is back with a second edition of the event! This time, our mutual friend Crystal from In the Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood has joined her to co-host. In 2016, I explored physical disability with an article […]
Oh my God! I am currently beyond excited as I’m FINALLY announcing the 90 Years of Jean Simmons Blogathon!! And the great Laura from Phyllis Loves Classic Movies is hosting it with me, which makes the thing even more fun since it’s the first time we’ll be hosting a blogathon together! About time! I was […]
Oh, Dolores. Where do I start? Back in 2011, maybe? Well, that’s when I first heard about her anyway. You see, my uncle who is a writer wrote a book called Elvis & Dolores, which was published in 2013. The story takes place in 2010 in a small city of Maine. However, it actually revolves […]
I’m finally back to blogathon business and, don’t worry, I’ll eventually give you an explanation why I recently skipped so many I had subscribed to. But for now, I hope you accept my apologies! Anyway, I said “enough” and made a choice: today, I’m writing for my blog. Well, after all, I’m here to celebrate […]
My Dolores Hart Blogathon, known as From the Star to A Star: Celebrating Dolores Hart, is finally here! I’ve announced this event at the end of July, so obviously we waited a lot! Dolores Hart is a great lady who surely deserves her own blogathon. Plus, this event will hopefully make you understand how special […]
Already three years ago, Crystal from In the Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood hosted a blogathon in honour of Lauren Bacall. Three years later, she is B-A-C-K with a second edition of the event celebrating “The Look”. Even if I still have mixed feelings on my appreciation for Lauren Bacall as an actress, […]
Hello everybody! As usual, next November, I’ll be hosting The Wonderful Grace Kelly Blogathon (4th edition) in honour of this unique lady. But, but, but! I made a little change this year as I asked Emily from The Flapper Dame to co-host the event with me and she gladly accepted! She had previously co-hosted the […]
Ah, Jo, Joseph, Joseph Cotten… What a man! Perhaps one of the most underrated actors in Hollywood, he surely deserves his own tribute. And his own blogathon! Crystal from In The Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood and Maddy from Maddy Loves Her Classic Films are back to take care of that! Of course, when […]
It’s been a pleasure for me to host The Wonderful Ingrid Bergman Blogathon for the 4th year! I had a great time reading the various articles written by YOU talented bloggers! I could feel your admiration and respect for Ingrid in each one of them, which is perhaps the best way to honour her. Ingrid […]
Hello friends and enemies! 😉 Are you ready to celebrate Ingrid Bergman? I hope you are because the 4th edition of my Wonderful Ingrid Bergman Blogathon has finally arrived, and this, for a three-day duration. With various topics concerning the life and career of the Swedish goddess, this is bound to be an unforgettable event […]
The Barrymores were to Hollywood what the Redgraves were to England: A “royal” family of talented actors, expended on more than one generation. My friend Crystal is one of the Barrymore’s great admirers and she reminds it to us every year with her always expected Barrymore Trilogy Blogathon that she hosts on her blog In […]
