House Bunny (movie) (no spoilers)

I saw this movie today, and it was surprisingly funny. I hadn’t particularly wanted to go, but I was glad I did.
The entire audience laughed a lot. There were only a few really dumb things, and one character I could have written out, but the main character is so delightful and watchable and innocently [...]

Jane Porter speaking about life

I’m happy to share this online interview with Jane Porter. She was gracious to spend some time with us. I think you’ll agree that she is a voice we’d like to hear more of.
Jane, I so much enjoyed your book Flirting with 40, and I’m really looking forward to it being [...]

Apres Vous (film)

Apres Vous is a romantic comedy that takes place in Paris. The DVD is subtitled in English, at least here in America.
In a way, it is similar to Ratatoille, only not animated. A lot of the action centers around an up-scale restaurant in Paris. Things get complicated when Antoine (Daniel Auteuil) (he [...]

Juno, some spoilers, maybe

Juno was recommended to me by a friend. I was told I’d like it, but I had my doubts.
First, the subject of adoption, birth mothers, birth fathers, birth family, and desire for a child are close to my heart. I have two bio children and two children adopted from China. [...]

Audrey Tautou in Priceless (Hors de Prix)

Well, this is a movie I’ll definitely want to go see. Billed as the Breakfast at Tiffany’s for our times, I’m ready.
Not to mention that she reminds me of Audrey Hepburn, and I liked her in Amélie and in The Da Vinci Code.

How about you?

Sex and the City (no spoiler)

College Girl and I went to see this last night. The plot of the movie surprised me, but it shouldn’t have. And I hadn’t heard the plot anywhere else.
In one sense, it was like seeing several episodes of the show at once. It was a fun movie, with a constant parade of [...]

The Obligatory Sex And The City NY Premier Commentary

I have to be honest here: while I was really excited about the release of Sex And The City: The Movie (just think of the shoes), nothing turns me off as quickly as over-hype. But since I’m here for the pretty, the shiny and the snarky, let’s ignore the…

Christina Ricci

Our paper had an article about Christina Ricci and her new movie Penelope. I would never have recognized her from the picture.
In it, she has what looks like dark blond hair (the picture is not in color.)
As I said, I would never have recognized her. She looks so much softer. [...]

Penelope (movie)

I took my 10 and 12 year olds to this movie last night. The audience seemed to like it, with many laughs out loud.
There is one scary part, which is also funny, which happens so quickly, all you can do is gasp, then laugh at the ridiculousness of it.
The mother is a riot. [...]

Valentine’s preparation: movie and a fragrance

Valentine’s Day might seem rather corny to you (and to me): after all, isn’t the point in celebrating love every day? But the pleasure-factor of watching a romantic film hand in hand with your loved one, silently hunched onto each other in a dark theater or at the abode of one’s home and enjoying an accompanying fragrance shouldn’t be shunned due to such esthete concepts as mentioned above.

College Girl and I went to see this movie tonight. I wasn’t sure if I’d want to see it, after reading the review, but I had seen a preview.

Singing in the rain with Sammy Davis Jr.

He is so fluid! And one of my favorite songs…and how good to see Johnny Carson again, no wonder we loved him. The interview is a little poignant as he speaks a bit about being ill.
