The Bleat

I like reading James Likeks' blog each day - it's one of the few I religiously read. He's a great writer & touches on kitchy things from the past - motels, magazine ads, and movies just to name a few.

Today's rant starts what he calls "Wednesday Noir," a summer feature covering the Film Noir Classic Collection Vol. 3 DVD set that just came out. Or as he calls it, the "Barrel Scraping Edition." Ha! This should be good.

The film-du-jour this Wednesday is "His Kind of Woman" starring Robert Mitchum, Vincent Price, Jane Russell, Raymond Burr, and Thurston Howell III (Jim Backus). Screen caps & wise cracks for all.
