I turned on the TV and a classic was on.

There are some awful channels (most of them) and others that make up for the rest of the mess.
I like to watch a couple of channels with wildlife and others with documentaries from History. But there is a channel that only has classics. And today, they had Giant. The movie was played by James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor and Rock Hudson. They were wonderful actors and the plot was awesome too. It showed the change in Texas from a cattle State to one that drilled oil everywhere. And in the middle of that, problems due to human beings.
I had watched it many decades ago. But the movie hadn´t aged at all. I sugest you look it up and watch it. The color was not perfect but I did not mind that at all.
Have you seen it? Do you have a local channel that shows such films?

Giant was a good movie. I wish that James Dean had been around longer. Rock and Elizabeth had fun in this one.

A wonderful movie. I saw a while ago East of Eden but I didn´t like it as I liked this one. East of Eden was just a part of the wonderful book that John Steinbeck wrote.

@marguicha .......Yes, East of Eden was a good one acting-wise. The story wasn't great however.

I've seen Giant. Yes we have a channel that plays movies from the silent era up to the 70s or so. Have a good day.
