I think of my best answers much too late. Only not, since it’s my blog.
But seriously, “favorite movies” and I forget all about my major old Hollywood crushes?!
I can only beg a writing-induced weakness of the mental facilities.
His Girl Friday is awesome. So awesome, in fact, I want to be Hildy Johnson when I grow up. You know, if that whole Hausfrau thing doesn’t work out. (And I don’t think it will. I do not appreciate the potential of the common-or-garden toothbrush to function as the superlative household cleaning instrument. But I love cake.)
Bringing up Baby: also awesome.
Holiday: ditto.
The Third Man: see above.
And just for fun, here [opens youtube link: beware] is how I’d like to be spending my day, courtesy of a very and comically drunk Orson Welles.

I agree on the movie selection – Bringing Up Baby, The Third Man and His Girl Friday are on the top of my list!

I had to watch The Third Man to ‘prepare’ for coming to Vienna. I kind of would like to see it again, outside of a classroom and now that I know where all the famous places are!
The rest, uh… I’ve never heard of them. Oops.
