I’ve been having major problems accessing my site today. This was the earliest I could even log on and then I couldn’t even comment on my own post! What is up with that? Thanks for all the comments on the movie question, really.
Dave in Montana — “Platoon” was My Beloved’s choice, actually. No offense was meant with it, I’m sure.
Personally, I’d replace it with a completely different kind of American movie — oh, say, “To Kill a Mockingbird.”
Also, I think I’d just have to add “Singin’ in the Rain,” THE quintessential American musical.
Tracey, it’s a super thread. It still lives on at Sheila’s as well.
No offense taken, Tracey. I was just curious. (Besides, if it comes down to a disagreement between your beloved and me, take HIS side!)
Thanks, Dave. I can honestly say that I’ve seen that movie ONE time, have repressed it, and have no desire to see it again.
I think it’s one of those one-timers.
To Kill a Mockingbird…AWESOME addition! My son had to read the book for Lit class, and says the movie was good, but didn’t develop the characters as well as the book did. I haven’t read it yet, but want to…it’s on my list!
