Ok but... Think about a Ron Livingston and Damian Lewis reunion, imagine Ron just walking up to Damian with a smile on his pretty face, then he looks at him and says:

"Going my way?"

#OTD in 1896 – Birth of stage and film actor, Arthur Shields (younger brother of Barry Fitzgerald), in Portobello, Co Dublin.

While Sean Connolly claimed the unfortunate title of being the first rebel fatality, others were luckier and escaped from Easter Week, 1916 with their lives. For Arthur Shields, his role in the Rising was to become merely an interesting titbit in what was a fascinating career as an actor at home and in the US.

Going My Way was the highest grossing film of 1944 and garnered strong praises from as many sources as I could find. Bing Crosby gives a heartwarming and lighthearted performance as a new-in-town priest attempting to improve his NYC community by....starting a boys' choir? It all makes sense in the end, but makes for a slow start to this 2+ hour film.

Double Indemnity was unique in a way that almost lost my attention at the beginning. The film utilizes an overarching narration that serves as the final confession, which felt out of place at times. However, I came around to this style at the end and fully enjoyed it. This film is truly like no other, and I'd be willing to watch it again at any time.

Double Indemnity also features Sam McDaniel, the older brother of Hattie McDaniel, playing an important - yet uncredited - role in the scheme.

At the 17th Academy Awards, Going My Way made Oscar history for having one person nominated for more than one acting award for the same role. Barry Fitzgerald was nominated for both Actor and Supporting Actor for the same role, winning the award for Supporting Actor.

Going My Way also won top honors for Best Film, Directing, and Acting for Barry Fitzgerald at both the Golden Globes and the NYFCC Awards.

Double Indemnity remains a top film among critics and the general audience with high ratings from Rotten Tomatoes. Double Indemnity also appears in both the 1998 and the 2007 AFI top 100 lists, with a peak placement of #29.

Unofficial Review: This feels like a strong upset. Going My Way is cute, though.
