Movie List Updates


Updates to my post about the Life List of Movies.

I just finished watching The Grapes of Wrath (1940) and can now cross it off the list. This movie is a classic movie obviously, being from 1940, but the human element can still be seen today. I think my favorite part of it would have to be seeing how the people actually had to live during the Dust Bowl. I don't remember much about the book but I would recommend this movie. I enjoyed it, it was great story telling. I even found the original trailer. It's fun to watch things that were made over 65 years ago.

While I was at it, I watched North by Northwest (1959). A great thriller/mystery by Alfred Hitchcock and starring Cary Grant. Very enjoyable, look for the famous scene where Grant gets chased by the crop dusting plane. They spoof it in movies and tv shows all the time. Found the original trailer for this too.
