The Borrowers movie
The Borrowers was a 1973 presentation from the Hallmark Hall of Fame, but the first time I saw it was just this week. Though the movie has a wonderful cast, it just wasn’t really my style for some reason.

Dorothy Mills movie
I am a big fan of horror movies, but not gore. Most movies with tons of gore seem to use it as a substitute for plot or character development. When I find a movie that is genuinely creepy without resorting to gore or cheap scares, I take notice.
