It's the story of a stupid person who stumbles through recent history and chases after a loser girlfriend...AAAAAAGH! Not funny, not clever, not insightful... not anything but an Academy Award Winning film.<BR/><BR/>Peace,<BR/><BR/>TimTimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09248664089124106737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604246.post-47113623513154613092007-02-25T19:15:00.000-06:002007-02-25T19:15:00.000-06:00Zina - Hahahahah!Cindy- I don't feel so bad about ...Zina - Hahahahah!<BR/><BR/>Cindy- I don't feel so bad about my Mockingbird deficiency now. :)Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321713951006827527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604246.post-48947735024954275392007-02-23T16:49:00.000-06:002007-02-23T16:49:00.000-06:00Laurie: Don't feel too bad about not reading "To ...Laurie: Don't feel too bad about not reading "To Kill a Mockingbird." I'm an English teacher with a Master's in English and guess what? I've never read the book or seen the movie :) If you haven't seen "Old Yeller", you have to see it, just make sure you have lots and lots of tissues. Also, watch "Where the Red Fern Grows" or better yet, read the book! Ok, that was the teacher in me :) Cindycindybindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14515872578564713262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604246.post-30541710598170713332007-02-23T10:55:00.000-06:002007-02-23T10:55:00.000-06:00The way I watched Space Odessey--yes I watched but...The way I watched Space Odessey--yes I watched but not all of it...and this is why. <BR/>A friend of mine decided that the long quiet scenes were so long between the dialog that you couldn't help but get lost.

That's how my sisters and I watched it growing up...(OK, we still watch it like that.)<BR/><BR/>I think "The Philadelphia Story" is hilarious and "It Happened One Night" is an all time fave. I forced it on my teenaged son and he had to admit to enjoying it.<BR/><BR/>You must read "To Kill A Mockingbird."

You must do so immediately. It's my favorite book and one of my top movies. <BR/><BR/>The Philadelphia Story is awesome! <BR/><BR/>I also don't care much for Jerry McGuire. It never had me at hello, not even at the credits. Dances With Wolves was too much naked Kevin Costner for me. :PMommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12111036439004167503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604246.post-44416594678815742952007-02-21T23:29:00.000-06:002007-02-21T23:29:00.000-06:00The Sound of Music spoiler - The Hills aren't real...The Sound of Music spoiler - The Hills aren't really alive - skip it. Agree with 2 out of 3, but I liked Forrest Gump. Of the 4 AFI picks you haven't seen, SEE THEM! If there comes a semester when you have the free time, think about taking one of Lane Roth's film classes at Lamar. They are time well spent. He teaches general, genre specific and studies of certain directors.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02006886256025064114noreply@blogger.com
