I’m curious if there is something my top five favorite movies have in common. I think it must be a quiet rhythmic pace than is as relaxed as a hot Southern Summer afternoon. Or maybe, I’m just full of it. At any rate, here is my little list:
Spanglish
Junebug
Elizabethtown
In Her Shoes
About a Boy
Over the weekend, I read a book called The Modern Drunkard. As a lover of alcohol, I expected very much from this book, but boy was I ever disappointed. Rather than a celebration of the almighty drink, this book was a celebration of party culture. I didn’t identify with the book at [...]
We spent the afternoon yesterday at a Doctor’s office trying to figure out what’s wrong with Luria’s (Cali) hands. No clear word on that, yet. We have to go back for more tests today.
We got home, Cali took medicine to help with the itching, and we put in the movie 300 based on [...]
There are about four hours a day we take for ourselves. Two of those hours are usually spent watching a movie. Tonight the movie is Saint Ralph.
It’s a coming of age movie…probably my favorite genre. My favorite coming of age film is Just Looking. It was directed by Jason Alexander from [...]

Two times in my life, I’ve rented Nurse Betty. Then I bought it. Each time, I was really looking for Me, Myself and Irene, one of my favorite Jim Carrey movies. Except for the year they were released, 2000, and Renée Zellweger, the two films aren’t similar.
My favorite quote from the the [...]
One of the best movies I’ve seen lately is The Last Mimzy. I don’t know why it didn’t do better. I think it’s better than E.T.
Why do I feel like Peggy Hill when I blog?
Tonight, we watched a documentary called Inside Deep Throat. It’s about the porn movie from the 70s. It was good and [...]
Watched this movie after reading rave after rave review. I thought it was craptacular.
I was reluctant to see it to begin with because I’m not one for the whole post-modern disaster genre. Reviews talked about how beautiful this film is. Those reviewers need some personal help. The only thing [...]
