Chained

I've been watching some Joan Crawford films lately.  In this one she's having an affair with an old married man.  She then meets Clark Gable on a cruise ship and falls for him.  But then the old man gets a divorce from his wife.  She has to choose between the two men.  Clark Gable is charming in this. 

This Woman is Dangerous

Joan Crawford plays a criminal who goes under eye surgery.  The doctor and her fall in love but she still cares about her gang of criminals.  Can she move on with her life?  Dennis Morgan who played the doctor seemed too young for her.  Joan Crawford did a good job in this movie.  It wasn't one of her essential films like Mildred Pierce but for a Crawford fan it will do. 

Night Must Fall

Robert Montgomery lives with Rosalind Russell and Dame May Whitty.  Rosalind begins to suspect him of the local murders.  She also starts to fall for him.  Dame May Whitty and Robert Montgomery were nominated for this.  This is a different role for Robert Montgomery.  He usually played comic roles.  It's different to see him as a bad guy.  It was a good movie.

Gentleman Jim

Errol Flynn plays a bank clerk who becomes a boxer who wins the title of heavyweight champion.  Alexis Smith plays the love interest who financially supports him at one point in this movie.  They have a love hate relationship.  Alexis is beautiful and good in this movie.  I'll have to look into her movies.  As for Flynn I've haven't really watched his movies.  He's worth a look too.

Jhoom Barabar Jhoom

This has a very low rating on imdb.com  I didn't think it was good but I didn't think it was as bad as a 3.8.  Two people meet at a bus and discuss the people they're engaged to.  What they don't know is that the both of them are making them up.  The problem is they've fallen for each other in the mean time.  The reason to get this is Preity Zinta.  She's one of my favorite Indian actresses.  Also it was kind of trashy which is rare for an Indian movie. 

Make me a Star and Merton of the Movies

I watched two movies with the same plot.  Make me a Star was a remake of a silent and Merton of the Movies is another remake of the same plot.  Out of these two movies Merton of the Movies was better because it was more charming and Red is a better comedic actor than Stuart Erwin of Make me a Star.  The movies are about an actor thinking he is playing a serious actor when really the movie's a comedy.  In Make me a Star it's a western, in Merton of the Movies it's a silent.  Joan Blondell was really charming in Make me a Star though which makes it worth a watch though.

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge

This is one of the best Indian movies I've watched.  It stars two very charismatic actors.  Kajol is pretty here.  The beginning of the movie starts as a road journey between Shah Rahn Khan and KajolThey fall in love only she is in engaged to another in an arranged marriage.  The second half of the movie is them fighting against this.   It's funny and a sweet movie.  Shah Rahn Khan and Kajol went on to make other movies with each other.
