I love movies. The first one I remember watching was a Disney live action film called “Blackbeard’s Ghost.” It stars Peter Ustinov and Dean Jones and all I remember was seeing it with my parents and brother Denny in our station wagon at the Drive-In. I was so young, it’s really a memory of a memory, but it’s a start.
Since the year 2000, I’ve been a Lifetime Member of The Prince Charles Cinema in Central London. Over the years I’ve seen more than 100 movies there. My daughter Lydia has been writing a blog “The Last One to Talk” for some time now and she has inspired me to write about movies. I’ve seen so many, I decided to restrict the ones I’m reviewing to movies I have seen at the PCC over the last quarter century or so. It’s kind of like “Only Murders in the Building”, but I’m hoping to be more consistent with the quality.
Along the way, I’ll share anecdotes, like the time Charlie, Shane and I dressed as Zombies to get free entrance or the Saturday morning screening where I was the only one in the audience NOT dressed as Santa. Plus celebrity sightings and other foolishness. I’ll also share the David and Goliath battle that the PCC just won with their landlords! http://www.princecharlescinema.com/savethepcc
I’m launching my posts with a recent triple feature of Universal Frankenstein movies and next week I’ll have Godzilla Minus Zero (Japan – 2026.) I’ve been rather shy of social media over the years. At the tender age of 62, I thought I would slowly catch up with late 20th Century technology.
