An excellent cast turns every corner of Lady on a Train into a small delight, and the mix of Durbin, Horton, Bellamy, Bruce, and Duryea keeps the whole mystery breezy and fun. A perfect holiday-adjacent noir-lite treat. boxd.it/c1dMJ5
A ★★★★ review of Lady on a Train (1945)
Another favorite holiday rewatch. I love this delightful cocktail of mystery, music, and mischief. Lady on a Train lets Deanna Durbin lean into her comic instincts while still delivering the crystalli...

Ex-teacher here. Moved to a basic office job this week. The straw that broke the camel's back was a parent of a 15 year old telling me their well behaved princess would never play up in school. Reader, she stabbed me with a pen so hard I needed stitches.

More than 50 organisations report sites being restricted or removed, with abortion hotlines blocked and posts showing non-explicit nudity triggering warnings

An academic disliked an Oxford Very Short Introduction (145 pages) in his field so much that he wrote a 200 page book review attacking it. www.pierre-legrand.com/ewExternalFi...

I knit Cables After Whisky a couple of years ago and I love it, except it pills like an SOB and the sleeves have stretched 3" too long. It was a fun knit so I'm going to do it again with a yarn that I hope holds up. Today 1 ordered 2 different yarns for it, because nothing in my stash was "right".🧶
