I Love Old Movies what about you ?

I can't remember a day growing up that I didn't prefer old movies over modern day television.

Abbey (mom) grew up loving movies ..she loved musicals, comedies and mysteries ...and with her love of those categories ..needless to say I grew up watching them over and over with her. I knew all the names of the great late actors and actresses and always wished I had lived in the era of musicals as I loved the singing and the dancing.

To name one of my favorites of an era gone by ..is Betty Hutton ..and if you haven't viewed her movies ...your missing out ..she's what a true actress should be in ever sense of the word " ACT "


Tonight ..Abb and I are sitting here in our jammies ..watching Red, Hot and Blue ..an quircky, comical, and fun little movie starring Betty Hutton and Victor Mature. We recorded on our DVR this week and tonight we decided to watch it again.

I had forgotten the opening of the movie and once again I was laughing ..as the opening number is Abbey without a doubt ...a little musical Number titled " I Wake up in the Morning"...and this is my Abb without a doubt ..from the time I was little Abbey was the morning girl ..happy..jovial and ready to sing and dance the minute her feet hit the floor ..If I could sum Abbs up ...this little number is perfection ...Enjoy the Clip ...Click HERE

If you haven't seen the movie ...take the time to see if it's playing on TCM again ..You'll enjoy it...!!!

  1. My t.v. is on TCM most of the time, I love old movies and would watch them anytime over a new one. I have to say I'm not a big fan of musicals (except the ones Marilyn Monroe was in) but I will check the TCM website to see if I can find this one:)
