We're on a Previous TNT Alert again; I featured Gone with the Wind back in 2013 for Valentine's Day, not long after I'd started the TNT tradition. I hadn't seen the movie yet, Valentine's Day happened to fall on a Thursday that year and this was TCM's featured film for the holiday. The stars aligned for me. LOL To be honest, that's the kind of movie I can only watch once. We're also on Previous Daily Cinema alert; I chose The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone a couple of years ago when my other play husband, Warren Beatty, was featured during SUTS. So I'm sort of a pretend bigamist. Anyway, today's Daily Cinema is at a decent time (for the first time in days--sorry again); I chose the romance Dark Journey, which is about a double agent who falls in love with a rival spy, the head of the German Intelligence, during WWI. I don't think we've had a full-on romance since Shall We Dance a couple of weeks ago, which is still categorized more as a musical than a romance. If you've already seen Dark Journey, I'd suggest Waterloo Bridge as a backup Cinema choice; in it a ballerina falls in love with a soldier during WWI and later becomes a prostitute after he is killed. I wanted a change in genre and that sounded like a rather heavy movie, so that's why I went with Dark Journey instead. I hope you enjoy and I'll see you tomorrow!
