On November 5, 2015, Vivien Leigh, my 8th most favourite actress would have celebrated her 102nd birthday. Even if she left us at the young age of 53, that’s not a reason why my friend Joey from Wolffian Classic Movies Digest wouldn’t honour her with a blogathon! Vivien Leigh is also known for having been […]

Ingrid Bergman. What is the first word that comes to your mind when you think of this name? For some, it’s “beauty”, for some it’s “talent”, for some, it’s “Casablanca”. For me, it’s all this, and more… As I wrote in my letter to Isabella Rossellini (yes, I’ve sent her a letter very recently. I […]

Today is a great day. You know why? Because Olivia de Havilland, one of my favourite actresses, is celebrating her 99th birthday! How wonderful is that! 😀 Olivia de Havilland is one of the last legends of classic Hollywood to still be alive and it’s an honour for us to celebrate her. I frankly don’t […]

Today, on June 22, 2015, Billy Wilder would have been 109 years old! He was one of the most talented movie directors and movie writers of the 20th century or, may I say, of all times! I never saw a Billy Wilder’s film that I didn’t like. Some Like it Hot is my favourite movie […]

Just like one of my very favourite actresses, Grace Kelly, James Stewart was born in Pennsylvania. I’m happy to have seen this garden state twice in my life, when I was on my way to Washington DC… I can’t remember exactly what was the very first James Stewart’s film I saw, but it was probably […]

Audrey Hepburn. Can you think of a lovelier, classier and sweeter lady? I believe she was Jackie Kennedy’s favourite actress, and, this I’m sure, she is mine. Today, on May 4th, 2015, Audrey would have been 86th years old. Unfortunately, this marvelous actress left us too soon at the young age of 63. Because I […]

My review for the Dolores Hart’s film marathon.

My text tribute to Jean Simmons, my 6th favourite actress. Written for her 86th’s birthday.

In honour of her 93rd birthday, I wrote this tribute to Donna Reed, one of my favourite actresses.

I have the reputation of being a big Hitchcock’s fan. Not the biggest, but maybe one of the biggest. Anyway, this is not a contest. In fact, I’m telling you this because, today, I’m going to explain to you why I love Hitchcock’s films that much. Let me tell you right now that there are […]

November 12: Today, it’s Grace Kelly’s birthday. She’s one of my very favourite actresses (number 2, more precisely), so I’ll take the occasion to explain how much I appreciate her. Grace Kelly is maybe the actress that I know the most: her cinema’s career and her personal life. This summer, I read a biography on […]

I think that the best way to end this Sunday would be to write a tribute to my 7th favourite actor, the one and only Burt Lancaster. I really love this classic actor and, today, November 2, we celebrate his birthday. After working in a circus, Burt was already 32 when he started a brilliant […]

Today, I’m happy to write this text to celebrate my 9th favourite actress, the marvelous Teresa Wright. Even if I’ve seen only two of her movies, I simply think she’s incredible, especially in Hitchcock’s Shadow of A Doubt (1943). For what I’ve seen so far of this actress, acting looked so simple for her. She […]

Today, I’m happy to celebrate the 97th birthday of the incredibly talented actress Joan Fontaine As I am a big Hitchcock’s fan, it’s the movies Rebecca (1940) and Suspicion (1941) that made me discover this star. Joan Fontaine is the only actress who ever won an Oscar for a Hitchcock’s film. That was for her […]

My video tribute to the wonderful Joan Fontaine This is the first October 22 without her… She would have been 97. Happy birthday dearest! 😀
