So what's next on the agenda? A real beauty of a year known as 1935. This was the year of "Mutiny On The Bounty", which coincidentally was also one of the first movies we watched in the last challenge, one of the first very old movies we saw. It wasn't a great movie but it certainly was good enough that we were no longer dreading the old movies. It did much better than expected, lets put it that way. Plus it introduced us to one of our new favorite actors, the "Best Picture" guru himself, Clark Gable, and you have to give it props for doing that.
By the way if you are interested in historical movie artifacts, the model ship used for cut-away shots of the Bounty in the 1935 film is actually housed in Jenkinson's Aquarium. Really. Anyway...
Kim's pick: Les Miserables
Adam's pick: PASS
For this year I chose one of the original film versions of "Les Miserables." I've seen the musical on broadway, but never the play and never one of the movies. It's such a famous piece of literature though, I figured why not.
Adam chose to "pass" on 1935, and he did not choose to veto Les Mis, so that's all that is on the horizon. Hopefully we'll get it watched in less than a week this time. As always, stay tuned!
