  1. Ernst Lubitsch's Eyes of the Mummy (1918) sounds like a horror film but it's a romantic melodrama although there's an ancient Egyptian tomb and a curse, and strange and inexplicable events. Pola Negri stars. Early Lubitsch is so wild and crazy.

  2. Born Reckless is an unassuming little 1958 rodeo musical melodrama B-picture that is thoroughly enjoyable mostly due to its star, the wonderful Mamie van Doren.

    She plays a cute singer and cowgirl.

    There’s a touch of subtlety to the characterisations that you really don’t expect in a B-movie, and there’s a nice atmosphere of creeping defeat and melancholy.
