Amazing, Cult Movie Tees
There's nothing we like better than snuggling up on the sofa under a blanket with a huge bucket of salty popcorn watching old school movies when the rain is pounding down outside! Our love of all the cult classics, has fed our insatiable desire to buy as many amazing movie tees as possible. Here is a little glimpse of some of the highlights.
The 80's heralded the arrival of a group of teens who made a massive impact on the movies of the day. Stars such as Matthew Broderick, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy,Andrew McCarthy, Judd Nelson and Emilio Estevez acted out their angst in a series of coming of age films.
The weekly retro movie rundown 2!
This week on the retro weekend movie rundown, it all seems a bit Superhero heavy, most likely due to the release of the Avengers movie in cinemas this week (anyone planning on leaving their sofa to watch that by the way?)
Despite that - there are still a few old school corkers in there so plenty of excuses not to leave your house all weekend in the name of your retro movie education!
Iâve done my best to include some classic movies I think you should watch, a few movies from that boy wizard we all know and love and one guilty pleasure - Iâll let you guess which one that is (Whatever!)
Enjoy and have a happy weekend of retro movie watching TruffleShufflers.....
SATURDAY 28th APRIL
