Though I've seen it many times before, I watched "Casablanca" again yesterday. *swoon* Here's lookin' at you, kid. T_E
Just saw "Honey" (someone talked about it in this thread a couple of years ago). Now I feel all hip-hop and such. That Jessica Alba sure can dance! One day, I'll have to try hip-hop. I have absolutely no idea what a class would be like or what they teach, but... T_E
It's long, but it keeps you so involved that you don't know that much time has passed, and at the end you wish there was more!
*Bump* Seen any good movies lately? I have a friend that I go to dinner and a movie with periodically, every couple weeks or so (it's coming up soon...). Whenever we get to the theater, he turns to me and asks, "So... what do you want to see?" I hate that question. I don't watch TV so I don't see any previews for current movies! I have no idea what's playing. Then he has to pick the movie and it turns into this awkward, "But what do YOU want to see?" kind of discussion. UGH! Right now, I want to see Bridge to Terabithia (having re-read the book for the sole purpose of going to see the movie). But, I always like to say, "Oh, let's see this movie or that movie", thus narrowing down the choice to 2, both of which I am interested in, then he can pick which he would like to see and everyone ends up happy..... So what else is playing?
My daughter and I went to see "Music and Lyrics" last night. We really enjoyed it. Hugh Grant just keeps getting better and better (and looking better and better, imo) at the one role he plays! And he sings!
Wanna see a "no-nudity, no-bad language, no violence, no-over-the-top actors, budget film that motivates you and makes you very teary-eyed? You will catch yourself on the edge of your seat, cheering and rooting! See "Facing the Giants." A little above a moderate religious movie, but so powerful . . . one that some of us should see the week just before we go to a dance competition. It certainly can and will help you! I'm not pushing religion, Christianity, or anything like that. It's very seldom that I sat and watch a movie . . . and I was glued to this one!
Saw Children of Men a few weeks ago. It was different - certainly beautifully shot. Had a little trouble buying the basic premise, the friend that I saw it with even moreso. Also saw Letters from Iwo Jima. Not as "hit you over the head" anti-war as Flags of our Fathers, and probably a better movie.
I really wanted to see this last weekend, but couldn't find anyone to go with me...I'll try again this weekend. I'm not in the mood for anything heavy right now and this movie sounds like it would fit my mood perfectly.
