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 […]
Unless you are a newbie here, it probably won’t be a mystery to know that, aside from classic films, my other great passion is a wonderful individual named David Bowie. People first know him as the music icon who wrote and sang Ziggy Stardust and inspired Fashion with his many transformations through the years. Although […]
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 […]
That’s it, folks! We have finally reached the LAST review for the Carry On blog series! I must now get used to the fact that I will soon have to move to something else. Unfortunately, among the few bad Carry Ons, Carry On Columbus is, in my humble opinion, probably the worst. What a sad […]
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 […]
It often happens that, when I watch a film I think “hum, this film makes me think of another one. Therefore, they would make a good double feature.” I have several ideas of interesting movie matches, and I thought it was about time to write a blog post about it. However, I might do it […]
January 8th week belongs to David Bowie and his also known as Bowiemas among his fans. Indeed, David was born on January 8th, 1947 and left us two days after his 69th birthday on January 10, 2016, which left many of his admirers in a state of infinite sadness. As I haven’t written on my […]
This semester, I’m attending a course on Irish cinema. Each week, we are expected to write a blog-like journal about the film we watched in class and/or our class discussion about the film. I’ve decided to include those entries to my blog, so it would be more agreeable to read than a Word document. This […]

Today, one of my very favourite modern actors, the one and only Leonardo DiCaprio, turned 42! Young and still full of talents! For the occasion, I’m presenting you my top 9 of my favourite movies of his! Why 9? Sounds a bit odd I know, but the simple reason is that I’ve seen 11 of […]
Today, I’m participating in The Barrymore Trilogy Blogathon, the very first blogathon hosted by In the Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood. How exciting is that?! 😀 We all know that the Barrymores was a notorious family of actors, with personalities such as Ethel Barrymore, John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, John Drew Barrymore, Diana Barrymore, John […]
I’m so glad to participate in The Barrymore Trilogy Blogathon, the very first blogathon hosted by Crystal from In the Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood! The event will take place from August 12 to August 15, 2015, for the occasion of Ethel Barrymore’s birthday. The Barrymore was a notorious family of actors and stage actors: […]
