I have been really liking classiccinemaonline.com. I don’t know how good the selection is, but I’m just getting started on the old films. It is a streaming service, which is what I prefer. Its 30s-40s selection seems to be to small.

The Bride Came C.O.D. is another of those great movies that few people seem to know about. James Cagney and Bette Davis act like Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner in that one. It’s very funny and almost like a live action Looney Tune.
I think Ball of Fire has become my favorite Howard Hawks comedy. Perhaps Hawks should have worked with Billy Wilder more often. Republican superstars Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck are both terrific in it.
They’ve almost made available one of Ronald Reagan’s funniest comedies, “John Loves Mary” with Patricia Neal in her film debut.

It’s funny to see the great man in a 3’s Company type of farce.
