I’m passionate about the movies.
Favorites include Moonstruck, The Hunt for Red October,L.A. Confidential, Fried Green Tomatoes and a lot of film noir.
Film noir movies always include a dame, a hard-boiled detective or other cynical male lead, with a stylish mystery. To Have and Have Not, The Big Sleep, Casablanca, Key Largo, and all those movies from the 40's and the 50s with Robert Mitchum and his sleepy eyes are film noir.
Here’s a peak at a film noir favorite with some of the classiest movie dialog ever written. It ought to be fabulous, William Faulkner wrote it.
The Big Sleep Bogey and Bacall

One of my favorite movies of ALL TIME is My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Not only my favorite, but the top grossing
romantic comedy ever produced. Which is
lovely for Nia Vardalos, the Greek star who wrote the screenplay and earned an
Oscar nomination the first time out.
Nia recently tweeted that MBFGW2 is in production. Every one of the original cast members Lanie Kazan, Michael Constantine (Principal Kaufman from Room 222), John Corbett, and Joey Fattone have signed on for the sequel along with newcomer John Stamos (Uncle Jesse from Full House). Nia took the pic above while filming. John Corbett is looking pretty good at 52.
Years ago, my niece, Piper, quipped that any sequel should be called, My Big Fat Greek Wife. I think she was 11 at the time. I don't think they're calling it that.
BTW, the title word up there is Greek for Hooray!
