Very enjoyable post, Linsey. I loved the clip and the Judy Garland version is the only one I haven’t seen. I’ll have to see if I can find it.

Anna,
Casablanca is my favorite. My husband loves that movie.
Linsey,
Great post. I think You’ve Got Mail is the only one I’ve seen.

Hi Anna. I tend to like the recent ones, too. The older ones often have too much of a “corn” factor, lol. I do like these movies, though. Congrats on the converts. Casablanca is a great one.

That’s cool, Connie. Guess it’s the same as some romance themes. If it works, use it again! LOL.

Hi Pam. Oh, you’ll love these other movies, too. Especially if you like Judy’s singing. What a voice!

You’ve Got Mail is the only one I’ve seen. But DH and DD watched Casablanca last night and we have a new convert! I like the more recent versions of classic romance.

Linsey-

I was also a big Van Johnson fan as a teenager.

It’s funny that Hollywood keeps remaking the same films over and over again. I guess it’s all about betting on a sure thing.

The only one of those I have seen is “You’ve Got Mail.” Guess it’s time I do something about that.

Thanks Mary and Sandy.

Hmmm. Maybe it’s not such an easy question. Here’s a hint. They’re not the same.

Here’s another hint. To learn the answer, all you have to do is watch all three clips (there’s a link to the first two, combined into one youtube vid).
