MOVIES: OLDIES BUT GOODIES

Posted on 21:31 by Unknown
Last night in Chicago's Grant Park, a bazillion people were enthralled by the old 1939 B & W "Young Mr. Lincoln." Really enrapt, laughing at all the jokes, enjoying the continuous melodramatic soundtrack, etc. Me, too.
Were we just movie lovers? Lincoln lovers? History lovers? Nostalgia lovers?
