Airport (1970)
"The instruction book said that was impossible."
"That's one nice thing about the 707. It can do everything but read."

Van Heflin wrings a lot of pathos from his nervy‚ despairing bomber‚ Seberg and Lancaster are their dependable#professional selves. it's a great shame we seem to have lost the knack for this kind of human drama mosaic on a grand scale: they're#invariably entertaining and allow for films which can mix genre and mood within one greater whole (comedy‚ tragedy‚ action‚ suspense)#whatever its modern reputation‚ this was a smash hit at the time and earned a clutch of awards and spawned a series of sequels

Miracle on 34th (1947, George Seaton)
05/01/2024
Miracle on 34th Street is a 1947 American film written and directed by George Seaton. It starts Maureen O'Hara and John Payne; the plot takes place between Thanksgiving and Christmas in New York and centers on the effects of a department store Santa Claus who claims to be the real Santa Claus.
Having become a Christmas classic, Miracle on 34th Street won three Oscars: best supporting actor for Gwenn, best story for Valentine Davies and best screenplay for Seaton. In 2005 it was chosen for preservation in the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress.
The Santa Claus who inaugurates the Christmas celebrations at the Macy's department store in New York is drunk, so the dynamic marketing director, Doris Walker, decides to have him replaced by Kris Kringle, an elderly gentleman who had already harshly rebuked the man for his conduct scandalous, and who seems (and personally claims to be) the authentic Santa Claus.
The prosecutor Ed Collins, a friend of Lamberg, as well as the judge, takes pains to obtain the man's interdiction, but Fred, who has given an engagement ring to Doris in vain, assumes Kringle's defense, and, causing a trial, with clever technicalities he manages to get a sentence issued in his favor.
