Lost in the World of Fifties Movies
We have a small theatre at the senior's residence where I live and our Recreation Director has agreed to a "Fifties Movie" day once a week for the month of April and I volunteered to research and find the movies which has resulted in me being "lost" in the world of movies for the past few days.
I went to the movies fairly regular ( at least weekly) during the fifties but BOY! did I miss a lot of great movies! How many have you seen?
I couldn't help but create a Movie Catalogue lens to keep track of all these wonderful 'oldies'. Stop by and tell me your favorite movie from the 1950's era.
