 Intelliflix: Rent Leave It To Beaver (1997/Jewel Case) on DVD
And Wally wasn't kissing any of his girlfriends in the original Leave it to Beaver series except in this one episode that was made in February 28, 1963, "Box Office Attraction", Wally's girlfriend Marlene Holmes was kissing Wally.
This is a good movie to see, especially after seeing the original Leave it to Beaver series that were made in the 1950s.
So it is a great movie but I still like the original series of Leave it to Beaver that was made in the '50s.

Love Me or Leave Me (1955) was the second time Doris Day and James Cagney had appeared together in a film but it was their first feature for MGM and quite a departure from The West Point Story, an innocuous musical they made for Warner Brothers in 1950.
A final irony about Love Me or Leave Me is the fact that the relationship between Ruth Etting and Marty Snyder had some disturbing parallels to the relationship between Doris Day and her husband Marty Melcher.
Love Me or Leave Me was an unqualified success and earned six Oscar® nominations including a third Best Actor nod for James Cagney.

 Love Me or Leave Me (1955)
Her voice is as pleasing as ever and the songs are very enjoyable ("At Sundown", "Love Me Or Leave Me", "Shaking The Blues Away", and "Mean To Me", among others).
"Love Me Or Leave Me" was Doris Day's MGM "extravagaza" (after several formula, cookie-cutter musicals at Warner Bros.) playing Ruth Etting a torch singer from the 1920's.
Some of Doris' fans were distraught to see her drinking and scheming to climb her way to the top, but the fact of the matter is she was playing someone else and she was very convincing.

No one comes off particularly nobly in Love Me or Leave Me, even though the still-living Ruth Etting, Martin Snyder and Johnny Alderman were offered full script approval.
One of the gutsiest movie musicals of the 1950s, Love Me or Leave Me is the true story of 1930s torch-singer Ruth Etting, here played by Doris Day.
Upon his release, Snyder finds that Ruth is still in love with Alderman; he is mollified by her act of largesse in keeping her promise to perform in his nightclub at a fraction of her normal salary.

Based on the screenplay of the eagerly anticipated final film in George Lucas’s epic saga, bestselling Star Wars author Matthew Stover’s novel crackles with action, captures the iconic characters in all their complexity, and brings a space opera masterpiece full circle in stunning style.

 Bright Lights Film Journal 2046
Characteristically for Wong, the film’s major theme is spelt out quite explicitly late in the film in one of Chow’s voice-overs: “Love is all a matter of timing,” he says.
This weeping is then rhymed with the final scenes with Bai Ling (in the 1970 “present”, which date, in keeping with the film’s and Wong’s romantic/nostalgic fascination with the sixties, is never explicitly named), which end with a complete breakdown into tears, from which, for once, we never see her bravely recover.
It’s a sign of 2046’s excessive overuse of motifs that this story is told three times in the course of the film, twice by the Japanese narrator and once by one of the androids.

 Garfield - Atomicduster Film Review
The cast of Breckin Meyer, as Jon and Garfield’s owner (sorry, the person responsible for Garfield’s well being) and Jennifer Love-Hewitt as Liz (Garfield’s vet and Jon’s love interest), play roles befitting of their abbreviated names, thin at best.
Sorry I've got to come clean, this film was truly dreadful, Bill Murray was good, but I couldn't see him, anyway I'm off for a Curry, I somehow feel incredibly hungry.
But seriously if you’re going to tackle this and you are over the age of say, 6, then leave your brain at home, because although CGI offers Garfield a wonderfully colourful character, Bill Murray as the voice gives him personality.

 goatdog's movies - Anchors Aweigh, 1945
The film was nominated for five Oscars, including Best Picture, Actor (Gene Kelly), Color Cinematography (Robert H. Planck and Charles P. Boyle), and Original Song (the Jule Stein/Sammy Cahn number "I Fall in Love Too Easily" sung by Frank Sinatra in the film).
In this feather-light film, the first of three Gene Kelly–Frank Sinatra pairings, Gene and Frank play two sailors on leave and in search of romance in Hollywood.
This is also one of the gayest films I've ever seen without actually being about homosexuals—meaning that it has a boatload of homoerotic undertones that were probably only partly accidental.

Although the film focuses on the repeated emotional stress of the woman, in the end he is the one whom the film has not really understood, and our intuition seems to predict that the story is far from over; indeed, we leave the theatre begging for a sequel.
The School of Flesh, the English translation of the film L’Ecole de la Chair, is based on a novel not yet translated into English by Yukio Mishima, whose gay proclivities came to an end though suicide in 1970.
The film, released in France in 1998 and shoehorned into art theatres in the United States in 1999, is directed by Benoît Jacquot.

And we know the reason for this: The film was made up as the shooting went along, and it was not until the last moment that the director and script writer knew whether Ilsa would leave with Victor or with Rick.
What then accounts for the success of this chain of accidents, a film that even today, seen for a second, third, or fourth time, draws forth the applause reserved for the operatic aria we love to hear repeated, or the enthusiasm we accord to an exciting discovery?
However, when the film is shown in American universities, the boys and girls greet each scene and canonical line of dialogue ("Round up the usual suspects," "Was that cannon fire, or is it my heart pounding?" -- or even every time that Bogey says "kid") with ovations usually reserved for football games.

Their dance not only takes up that of the anarchists on hearing that their families are coming to live with them, where they all danced in a circle, but also takes up the long camera movement at the very beginning, with the future commune described as a self-contained circle.
Early in the film, when she is teaching Tullio to read and write, they start discussing free love and he indicates an interest in her.
The film recounts the problems encountered by emphasizing the various contradictions at work: between the commune and the world outside, and inside the commune itself.
