I posted this 7-21-15 on the TV/Movies thread (downstairs):
I make an effort to watch a "new" old movie several times a week. I check the TCM schedule daily (or the night before) and choose a film that I haven't seen previously.
Yesterday I watched Penelope (1966) starring Natalie Wood. The silly comedy revolves around a beautiful kleptomaniac (Wood) who robs her husband's bank to get back at him for being a workaholic who ignores his wife. The husband/wife relationship is reflected in flashbacks with Penny's psychiatrist. The ending was predictable, and the best part of the fluff film were the '60s wardrobe (Edith Head) and a plethora of wigs worn by gorgeous Natalie Wood. Grade: B-.
