TA:MOU = Themed Anniversary: Moving On Up

The Rules

Each Tuesday a theme will be decided based on the Anniversary of some significant event. All you have to do is trawl your reviews for any that relate to that event and post them here with a link.

You can post as many as you wish, so long as either the film or your review clearly relates to the theme. You can only post during the week of the current TA:MOU.

You don't have to say you voted unless you really want to - but you are expected to visit all the links posted.




ON THIS DAY: 6 November
America goes to the polls. It also happens to mark two poll-related anniversaries just a year apart.

>In 1860 Illinois congressman Abraham Lincoln won the presidency against three other candidates.
>In 1861 the Confederate States of America elected Jefferson Davis their president.

So TA:MOU wants you to get all presidential this week. You have a choice of three:
1. Reviews for films about Abe Lincoln
OR
2. Reviews for films about the Confederate South
OR
3. Reviews for films about any US President, real or fictional


The Birthday Alternatives - reviews, please, for any one of these three, as TA:MOU celebrates:
> Pioneer silent film director Thomas Ince [1882-1924]
> Versatile film director Mike Nichols [b 1931]
> Actress Sally Field [b 1946]

You post. We vote!

A number of these films do not take place during the Confederacy but feature characters who were formed by it and/or fought for the Confederate side.
