Come and celebrate Grace Kelly via the marvelous entries written for The 6th Wonderful Grace Kelly Blogathon hosted by The Wonderful World of Cinema and The Flapper Dame!
The intrepid blogging duo The Wonderful World of Cinema x The Flapper Dame is back! We’ll be honouring, with you, our favourite actress with The 6th Wonderful Grace Kelly Blogathon! As this exquisite lady would have been 95 in November, we couldn’t skip the occasion to celebrate her life and career by bringing this blogathon […]
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.
The 6th instalment of my beloved Golden Boy Blogathon took place last Tuesday and Wednesday to concord with what would have been the great William Holden’s 106th birthday. I was joined by the awesome Emily from The Flapper Dame to co-host and celebrate this phenomenal actor the way he should be! Of course, I want to thank all […]
Recently, I’ve got tempted to participate in blogathons again, but, to tell you the truth, I also missed hosting them. Although I have various ideas in mind, I’ve decided to return with one of my classics: The Wonderful Ingrid Bergman Blogathon! I hosted that blogging event for the first time back in 2015, and this […]
Oscar season is ending tonight as we are finally reaching the award ceremony! I don’t know if I’d be able to watch them (I hope yes), but regardless, it’s an occasion to go back on this blog since it’s been a long time. And now that I forgot to cancel my Grammarly subscription, I have […]
Three years ago, on The Wonderful World of Cinema, I gave myself the exciting challenge of watching and reviewing all the Carry On films in what became a blog series. It was not less than 32 films, and they instantly became huge (admittedly guilty) pleasures. They made me discover actors like no other, a ridiculous but endearing type of […]
Once in a while, the wonderful world of cinema creates matches made in Heaven (or wherever) when considering working collaborations between people in the film industry. We can think of actors and or/actresses who collaborated on many occasions due to their obvious chemistry and power to make us laugh, or make a romantic comedy a classic. […]
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 […]
Spring is at our doors and is about to begin in about a week (depending on when you read that). And who says “spring!” says… Well certainly doesn’t say “Christmas”. Yet, we’re going to talk about Christmas, at least a little bit. You see, Lea at the excellent blog dedicated to the art of silent […]
We sometimes forget that Kim Novak is one of those classic actresses still with us today. I’m not sure why that is, except maybe that she’s not so much in the public eye anymore. Et pourtant… She was an icon of her time, but maybe not like Marilyn Monroe or Grace Kelly. Still, she certainly marked […]
One of my favourite things about #Noirvember is that it gives me the occasion to discover many new-to-me films during November. I indeed take to occasion to watch some noirs that I have never seen before and, therefore, expand my horizons. Of course, I’m free to watch films noirs all year, but, somehow, it feels […]
It’s funny because, these days, I am constantly reminded of my 2018’s trip to England for various reasons. One of them is that I recently re-watched the comedy The Iron Petticoat (Ralph Thomas, 1956), which I saw for the first time when I was in Liverpool. So yeah, that journey was a mix of Katharine Hepburn and The Beatles. […]
When I was introduced to Eleanor Parker as Baroness Elsa Schraeder in The Sound of Music (Robert Wise, 1965), I didn’t immediately become a fan of her. Her character annoyed me, and, perhaps, I was too focused on Julie Andrews to take the time to appreciate her performance. And this, even tho I have seen […]
If you’ve been following this blog for a while and know my tastes well, it shouldn’t be a mystery that one of my favourite national cinemas is the one from the UK, especially the classics from the 30s until the 60s. That is why Terence’s Rule, Britannia Blogathon that he is hosting on his blog […]
