I watched all of those as well..... and a 'surprise' addition....

I still love all those movies and watch them periodically. In my household, (when I was a kid), I believe the annual broadcast of the Wizard of Oz was second only to Christmas for being a 'big event'. We looked forward to it like I look forward to a Ram's SB.

Ok, my surprise.... but first my prediction. I don't think ANY of you will remember this movie BUT..... at least for you elder folk - you DID see it, even if you don't remember it. That's because like the Wizard of Oz it was shown EVERY year, once a year, on a special day.... the title:

"The Horn Blows At Midnight" - starring.... the funniest human being, (naturally funny), of all time Jack Benny. Ring any bells? It was shown every New Year's Eve, at least around here it was.

So I'm not putting this movie in the Wizard of Oz category.... or The Ten Commandments... it's not. BUT... it was an annual event for me on New Year's Eve. My Dad couldn't stay up long enough to watch it, , until one year they showed it before 9pm and he was able to finally watch it.... he loved it. Jack Benny was his favorite comedian. I think he may be my favorite comedian as well. - JamesJM
