I love movies, always have, always will. I love good movies even more! So, I decided it was time to make sure I've seen what's commonly accepted as the 100 greatest, as decided by the AFI. Some of the movies on the list I've seen a million times, some I've seen maybe once when I was little. With the help of my streaming subscription to Netflix, and getting my little red envelopes in the mail too, I will definitely conquer this list - and I can't wait! Please feel free to watch along or add comments about your movies as I watch them! Get the popcorn and milkduds ready!

#61 Sullivan's Travels

1941
Director: Preston Sturges
Starring: Joel McCrea, Veronica Lake, Robert Warwick, William Demarest

Great old movie about a movie director who wants to make a movie about hard times.  Once he realizes that he doesn't really know about hard times, he sets out to learn for himself... on the way he meets Veronica Lake (how gorgeous is she?!) And then he really learns about hardships, but learns by the end of the movie about the strength of laughter.


Up Next: Duck Soup!
