Hello!

Welcome to my film blog! I expect this entry to be a little awkward, but whatever! I decided to start this blog after some friends became interested in the fact that I am trying to watch a new movie every day during my summer holiday. Since I dream of being a professor of film studies, I think this would be conducive to my future career! So before I begin yacking about the movies I'm watching, I thought I would give you an idea of me!
I am a student at the University of Oklahoma. For some reason, I am seeking a degree in vocal performance, with a minor in film studies. I want to study Film in grad school, and become a professor. Right now my area of expertise is in the musical (especially depression-era musicals), but I am also interested in cult film.
Above all other things, I love Ginger Rogers. Her grace, elegance, and talent were stellar. While my favorite movie is Stage Door (which I will talk about later), my favorite Ginger Rogers musical is Swing Time. Here is a wonderful number from Swing Time. This is the first number I saw them dance, and I have been hooked ever since:



Just wonderful!

In closing, I hope that you enjoy my ramblings on these films that are new to me, and I hope that I inspire you to find something that you love, as I have.
