Just to wish everyone who visits my blog a happy and restful break over the holidays. Here are a couple of Christmas stills from films I like but haven’t written about here yet – The Sisters (1938), directed by Anatole Litvak and starring Bette Davis and Errol Flynn, and Pride of the Marines (1945), directed by Delmer Daves and starring John Garfield and Eleanor Parker (a lovely still from the Life collection). Both these films feature rather sad Christmas holidays – however, I hope yours will be anything but!

Judy, Happy Holidays to all of you! Have a relaxing and enjoyable week.
Thank you, Sam, and the same to all of you!
Merry Christmas Judy yo you and your family.
Thank you, John, and a happy Christmas to you and your family too.
Very belated — to say I heard an excellent paper on Pride of the Marines in one of the first MLA meetings I went to. Very worth watching,

That sounds interesting, Ellen – I thought it was a fascinating film and want to watch it again.
