Movie Quote of the Day – Foreign Correspondent, 1940 (dir. Alfred Hitchcock)
Johnny Jones: I love you, and I want to marry you.
Carol Fisher: I love you, and I want to marry you.

From The Warner Archive: Fred Astaire vs. Gene Kelly
I’ve always been partial to Gene Kelly, myself. The Warner Archive asks you to choose between the two icons of dance on film with two new releases from the collection: Fred Astaire in the 1943 wartime dark comedy The Sky’s The Limit and Gene Kelly in the 1947 post-war musical comedy Living In A Big Way. Both films are little seen and essential for fans of the dancers, though I will admit as these reviews go on, my preference for Kelly will start to show.
