#nowwatching #SnowedUnder - A brisk, frothy comedy with witty banter and snowy chaos; #GeorgeBrent keeps it moving, and the ex-wife mix-up gives it plenty of old-Hollywood charm.
#nowwatching #AManWhoTalkedTooMuch” (1940) is a legal drama about a lawyer whose moral compass falters as ambition clouds justice. #GeorgeBrent delivers charisma, while #VirginiaBruce adds conscience. Despite some dated pacing, it’s a compelling portrait of redemption set against courtroom intrigue.
I think I feel like his leading ladies did,
that he's easy to have around.

Not really complaining, but recently it seems that every day on #TCM is #GeorgeBrent day.

At this point I'm actively rooting for her to drop dead in front of him

"Then there is something you don't want me to know."
GOD she's dumb. This script is not doing Merle Oberon any favors.

I think Pat O'Brien is a better cop than Warren Hymer, and Aline MacMahon is a better con than Binnie Barnes

Man, the ship's doctor needs a refresher course in medical ethics. He's blabbing her business all over the place!

Wow, she's lucky she fell for a guy headed to Death Row. She's ripe to be taken by a con artist

Man, it would serve them both right if she accidentally killed him with those pills

"Seasick on a sea like this?"
"No, angina. Her heart."
So much for patient confidentiality

I can already see why this movie is 32 minutes longer than #OneWayPassage — everything is being spelled out and underlined

"My name's Bonny."
"You look it."
"Thank you, I feel it."

In the earlier version, #OneWayPassage, the trio singing in the bar consists of two husky men and an equally husky butch woman, all in suits
They remade #OneWayPassage with #GeorgeBrent in the William Powell role? The AUDACITY

Pretty sure I saw most of this one during Merle Oberon’s #SOTM turn. #TCMParty #GeorgeBrent

The idea that a doctor would hide a terminal diagnosis from a patient gives me the screaming heebie jeebies

Getting a jump on #GeorgeBrent Tuesday. Watched #OutOfTheBlue this morning. Definitely not the usual Brent movie and Ann Dvorak steals it.

#nowwatching #GeorgeBrent Smart blend of drama and romance set on a bridge construction site— #Stranded (1935) highlights grit , integrity, and #ClaudetteColbert’s charm amid Depression-era realism.
Already thinking of ways to slip this into casual conversation.
