Friday Flicks.....

Now Sir...as near as the Cookie can tell, the days of good old classic, non-profane humor are long gone. These two guys are amongst the greatest commedians of our time....

Now Maam...grab a second cup a Joe, smoke em if ya got em, sit back and reminisce a mite....

Musical trailers/scores from some old movies.....

"Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines"




"The Bridge on the River Kwai". In 1957 this was a very popular song and movie, roughly based on a true story from WWII, winning several awards, however, it was so far from the actual truth that it insulted and angered (and rightfully so) the few survivors of the true Japanese brutality, starvation and wholesale murder of these POW's....




...and how many of y'all out there recall the original movie "The Happening"...?





...and at last, the movie that scared the livin B'Jesus outta this 7 year old.....

After watchin this movie in the local "sit & scratch" with my older cousin, for the next several years, every night before I went to bed I checked in the closet and under the bed...just t'make sure...



...If'n that happened today, "The Thing" woulda gotten run over by an "Ice Road Trucker"...

...and finally, a movie, and a song, which helped get Steve McQueen get started....
