Virginia Mayo -what a Dame!

Just saw her last week in Raoul Walsh's Captain Horatio Hornblower. Can't really say I'm a big fan.

ok... then out-Dame her
Alida Valli from the Third Man

Now you're talking. I didn't really have a problem with V Mayo. I just sort of thought she was out of her element on a British Navy ship. Maybe that was the point. I don't know.

Surprisingly, women were fairly common on British Navy ships of that era. The term "son of a gun" came from crewmen's wives giving birth between the cannons.

Interesting. I was just talking about this particular woman.

I also doubt that many of the women looked like Virginia Mayo.

I watched Pineapple Express last night. Sure I laughed a bit. But it was too stupid for words, also. It gets a C-.

Final Destination 3 last night. I don't know if I needed to see the prequels, but man what a ride. I didn't like when those chicks got fried in the tanning beds though.

I had a guest over who wanted something "creepy but still fun", and since I'm not a horror guy, I steered her toward Hellboy 2. She'd never seen the first, and I was disappointed for a moment, only to remember that the original is one of the very few non-comedies I actually own.

Anyway, she liked it, and I enjoyed re-watching it for the first time in a few years. Great combination of action, humor, and style. Now we can watch the sequel, which is even cooler! Only sadly without David Hyde Pierce's voice for Abe. Oh well. Selma Blair is gorgeous.
