Discover eight double features that I imagined with films starring Ingrid Bergman, Audrey Hepburn or Grace Kelly! Written on my blog Three Enchanting Ladies, exclusively dedicated to these actresses.
It’s not a secret for anyone familiar with The Wonderful World of Cinema that I love British films, especially the classic ones. They have a unique charm, especially with the actors and dialogue delivery that you don’t find in Hollywood films (and I’m not necessarily thinking of the accent). So, that’s why The Rule Britannia Blogathon (formerly The British Invaders […]
Happy New Year to all! I’m taking a little break from the Ealing Comedies Blog Series because, as the year 2022 recently ended, it’s time for me to do a recap of my favourite films watched that year! So, for the occasion, I’ve decided to go with a top 20. I’ve spent long periods not […]
I always found myself deeply fortunate to share my birthday with the wonderful and sparkling Doris Day, who wasn’t only a great singer but also a brilliant (and underrated) actress. And overall, she’s someone who constantly brings joy to my life. Listening to Doris Day music or watching one of her films is a perfect way […]
I have to admit; I still haven’t seen enough films with Van Johnson despite really liking him in the not-so-well-known Three Guys Named Mike (Charles Walter, 1951). When Michaela from Love Letters to Old Hollywood announced the 4th edition of her Van Johnson Blogathon that she is hosting in honour of his birthday (August 25), […]
Today marks what would have been the 102nd birthday of my second most favourite actor, the one and only Golden Boy; William Holden! As you know, I’ve hosted a blogathon in his honour for four consecutive years. Sadly, I am not able to make it this year due to being very busy with my master […]
Not a long time ago I shared with you my thoughts on two great Alfred Hitchcock Presents episodes starring Claire Trevor. I felt like discussing Hitchcock TV stuff again but, this time, with its anthology series The Alfred Hitchcock Hour. The principle is pretty much the same as Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Each week, a new […]
Today, the prolific film music composer John Williams turns 88. To celebrate him, I’ve decided to share with you my 15 most favourite film scores composed by him. I believe that even if you aren’t into films, you are surely familiar with at least one of his compositions. Some of his themes sort of defined […]
I started it on October the 1st and completed it on January the 30th. The Carry On blog series has been the first “long term” project at The Wonderful World of Cinema, one that lasted much longer than I would have thought! Do I wish it would have been completed it sooner? Not necessarily, because […]
Happy Halloween to all! Three years ago, I did a little top 20 of my favourite films to watch on October 31st. I thought it would be fun to do another list because I have discovered more films in the past three years. Instead of doing a top list, I’m going to present these films […]
Carry On Again Doctor is not a sequel to Carry On Camping as it features different characters, but if we regroup these two films with Carry On Nurse, it forms a trilogy within the Carry On series itself. We could call it the hospital trilogy. However, despite featuring different characters, one might notice that the Matron, […]
Before I go on with this article, I have to tell you this amusing life story. I was on the bus earlier this evening to come back home and, I swear, I saw Charles Hawtrey’s doppelganger. Seriously, I wouldn’t have been surprised if he would have said: “Oh, helllllo!” That was the fun mini-anecdote of […]
After the failure of Don’t Lose Your Head and Follow That Camel, the Carry On team went back to their original narrative structure with the very nostalgic Carry On Doctor. However, if this one seemed to be a farewell to the public that had followed the peripeties of the Carry On regulars for almost ten […]
Ouch. How could I put this into simple words? Let say that Follow That Camel (Gerald Thomas, 1967) is not excellent. It’s not completely bad either, and it remains enjoyable. But it’s weak if you compare it to many of the other Carry On films and a disappointment after watching Don’t Lose Your Head, which was […]
I wasn’t expecting much from Don’t Lose Your Head (Gerald Thomas, 1967). To me, it felt as if it was going to be one of these nice but somehow forgettable Carry Ons. That was mostly because the film is not necessarily the most famous or the most talked-about of the series, just one among many. […]
As I told you at the end of my last article, today, I’ll be reviewing a film that is perfect for Halloween season: Carry On Screaming! It’s still mid-October, so this gives you the second half of the month to see it! 😉 Carry On Screaming (Gerald Thomas, 1966) marks a determining step in the […]
After a short break from reviewing Carry On films, I’m back with this western movie parody: Carry On Cowboy (Gerald Thomas, 1965)! The film marked Angela Douglas, Peter Butterworth, and Bernard Bresslaw’s first appearances in the franchise. I must admit that Carry On Cowboy is among my least favourite Carry Ons so far, but it […]
Through this fun blog series, we’ve already explored a total of ten Carry On films! Of course, we’re not even halfway through them, but I’m glad this is going so well so far! Oh, before I continue, yesterday, I discovered some beautiful photos of Kenneth Williams and Ingrid Bergman! The two starred on stage together […]
