My favorite movies: |
|
The Blue Iguana |
| comments: Hey - who knew that Dylan McDermott would become such a huge star! I love all the goofy aspects of this movie and I wish it would come out on DVD. |
|
The Lord of the Rings Movies |
| comments: Gah. I know - so obvious, but the epic nature of the story and the outstanding vision and direction of Peter Jackson bowl me over. Give me a good epic any day. |
|
Next Stop Wonderland |
| comments: Not only does it have a great soundtrack, but it's funny and the romantic storyline is really cute without being sappy. Quite a feat in my book. Plus the male lead reminds me of SH - hubba hubba! |
|
Brick |
| comments: The pseudo-slang made me feel like an oldster but I was rivited to the screen. |
|
Holiday Inn |
| comments: But only if the've kept in the Lincoln's Birthday scene. |

|
Nancy Mitford |
| comments: Whenever I read her books or autobiographies of the Mitford sisters I get the feeling I was born a little too late and into the wrong family..... |
|
Norman Maclean |
| comments: Perfect. Just perfect. |
|
David Sedaris |
| comments: I think he's actually made me laugh so hard that I wet my pants. Embarrassing but true. |
|
Carol Goodman |
| comments: Mysteries that I can fool myself into thinking are high-brow. |
|
Donna Tartt |
| comments: I just wish she would be more prolific. |
