ON MOVIES ~ Dress Up...

Feature Presentation...

MONDAY MOVIE MEME

Molly looked around for a weekly meme about movies and did not have any luck. So therefore she decided to start her own! Andy will play along as well - hopefully you will too. Go to your blog and create your own post on the topic, linking back to us in your post, then come back and leave a link to your post here in our Comments section. If you don’t have a blog, just share your response in the Comments section.

This week's movie topic is all about Costumes...

Halloween is approaching here in the U.S. The holiday where all the kiddos dress up in costumes and knock on neighborhood doors in search of candy, risking trickery to your property if they are denied. Now that I think about it, Trick Or Treating is really a lesson in manhandling. It is also interesting how the costumes have changed over the years from purely scary characters to whomever the latest popular icon might be. In the world of cinema, the costumes often make or break the believability of the experience for the viewer. Sometimes they define the character and other times they are successful because they blend things so seamlessly into the background, allowing the actors to shine. Here are a few examples we enjoyed. Share on your blog movies whose costumes set just the right stage, linking back here at The Bumbles. And don't forget to visit your fellow participants!
