resurrecting the movie list

Okay, so I've been a slack ass about the movie list. I fell so far behind that I just couldn't deal with writing up movies I'd seen months before, which made me fall even more behind, and it was just one of those vicious things.

I hardly even watched any movies in the past couple of months -- only 9 in March and 10 in April -- but I never stopped keeping track. I'm going to try writing up the movies I've just seen, and work my way backward. If I never get all the way caught up, but I get back to posting the current movies, that will be okay.

And without further ado...

April 30: The Girl from Missouri. A Jean Harlow movie with a happy ending, whee! Harlow plays a girl from the wrong side of the tracks who wants to make good with her life, falls in love with a rich guy (Franchot Tone), outwits Tone's suspicious father (Frank Morgan) and ends up with everything she wanted. It warmed my heart. The best line in the movie, said by Harlow, was "He's a vulgar vulgarian!"
