31 Days Of Oscar

We're getting closer to the Oscars! As you know, I'm a bit of a gossip fiend, and I looooove seeing the beautiful dresses being worn to the awards show! (OK, and some of the strange, weird, and ugly ones too)

Not having a TV signal means we watch a lot of movies here, either from our own ever growing collection, rented, or borrowed! But for those of you who have cable - TCM's annual 31 Days of Oscar festival is upon us! Break out the popcorn and your beverages of choice, there's a ton of great movies airing back to back up until the Oscars themselves on March 7th!


What's totally cool this year, is that all the movies are scheduled in a format inspired by the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game – starting with Only When I Laugh and ending with Diner. Each movie is linked to the next movie in the lineup through a shared actor or actress! If you're home for Valentine's Day, that Sunday's line up features both Casablanca starting at 8PM, followed the The African Queen - both great movies!

So if you love great movies as much as me, enjoy this line up! And if you've read this far, I'm rewarding you in a few days with a giveaway of my own in honor of movies! ;) When the giveaway starts, just come back to this post for a question that will give you an extra entry into the giveaway. ;)

For sharing this information with you, I'll be receiving an Oscar party pack.

It's times like this that I wish I still had Directv. I used to have Casablanca and African Queen on VHS, they are favs of mine, but they were damaged in a basement flood.
