What's this about?

Lately, it seems like many of the movies/shows are just a rehash or reboot of things that have already been done. And so I started to dive into the past. It's been fun, but I find myself losing track of which ones I’ve seen and whether or not I enjoyed them. Sometimes the titles themselves just don't tell me enough to remember.

I wouldn’t have voluntarily watched a lot of these movies when I was younger. It’s strange how interests change. That goes for what I read, too. I have another blog that explores books. I’m mostly reading older fiction and memoirs, and some of the books have led me to movies/shows and vice versa. In those cases, I may post the book review over here as well.

There will be spoilers, which is different than my book reviews. That’s mostly because I want to have enough information to help me remember what I’ve seen. I’m getting older. The brain doesn’t cooperate like it used to. What can I say? The gray hairs are catching up with me!

Kitty Foyle - 1940

I have no idea how this ended up on my list to watch. I had absolutely no idea what it was about when I started it, and I still don't know why it was on the list.

Kitty has just agreed to marry Mark. When she goes up to her apartment to pack up her things, she finds her old lover, Wyn, waiting for her. All the old feelings come back, and she agrees to meet him at the pier and sail with him to South America.

Her reflection calls her out and tells her to take a moment to think about everything she's been through. Kitty then flashbacks through everything she's been through with Wyn and Mark. At the end, she makes her final decision.

The movie itself was pretty entertaining, but my copy of it was garbage. For some reason, my version had weird clips from other shows or something before and after the film. Then, during the movie were super old commercials. Where did I get this?!

Anyway, I liked the movie. It had a good ending, and Kitty was a good character. She was independent and strong. I liked her, and I liked the person she ended up with. Good Movie!
