HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

Great Old Movies wishes everyone a great holiday season and a very, very happy New Year.

This week I review the Christmas favorite A Christmas Carol with the wonderful Alistair Sim as Ebenezer Scrooge, and a couple of Xmas-themed horror films. Rounding out the week are two movies that must have seemed like good bets for Holiday viewing -- Samson and Delilah and Julie Andrews in Star! -- but maybe weren't such good choices after all. (Maybe I should have stuck with Perry Mason!)

Anyway, have a great 2019! (Look for an announcement about my new movie blog coming soon!)

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!

Great Old Movies will be back next week with more reviews. In the meantime, wrap your presents carefully (like the nerd in the Verizon commercials, I have never quite mastered this trick, which is why I send gift cards); don't watch your calories during your Holiday meal -- it's a calorie-free day -- and, whatever you do, don't forget to put the bourbon in the egg nog and the sweet potatoes, as well as a shot of dark Jamaican rum in the hopefully home-made apple pie!
