1930 - The Broadway Melody

Melody Says....

If I'm going to do this thing, I got to keep an open mind right? I had a hard time staying awake through this black and white musical. I actually ended up watching it in two sittings because I couldn't stay awake. This story showed the affects that Broadway can have on relationships. I appreciated the older sisters love for her younger sister and the care she had for her. I give this movie a double.

Jacob Says…

I give this movie a single. The best part of the movie was Hank’s (the older sisters) selfless love for her Queenie (the younger sister). Outside of the relationship between Hank and Queenie, this story was corny and had times of major lulls.

Our Rating System

We came up with our own rating system. Here's how it goes.

Home Run
Triple
Double
Single
Strike Out

If you know baseball, this is pretty easy to understand. We will give our rating of each movie and tell a little bit about what we liked/disliked about the movie or just our thoughts on it.

The Idea

My husband knows I love movies. In his awesome attempt to get on board with my hobby, he came up with the idea to journey through watching all of the movies that have ever been granted the title of "Best Picture". I was of course super excited about this and thanks to Netflix we have the capacity to do so.

Since we are going to be watching all of these "Best Pictures" we want have to a way to rate them. So our next task, how to rate them...
