Movies I've seen in the past month T13 ed #9
>> Thursday, January 10, 2008
I have been borrowing DVDs from the library over the last month and here's what I've checked out and viewed so far.
1. Pride and Prejudice - I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audio book and so I decided that I wanted to see it on screen as well. I was not disappointed. The ensemble of actors were all good. I woould recommend to anyone.
2. The Notebook - I have seen this movie before. And I remember liking it. I listened to the audio book and fell in love with the characters, I needed to see the movie all over again. What a great love story. Very good movie.
3. Match Point - kind of a quirky story. Story of love gone wrong all beacuse of the evil of money.
4. Prime - Funny and adorable. Not quite the ending I'd like it to be but hey, Merryl Streep as always gives a glorious performance.
5. Crash - i love the way stories of lives are connected. It is so true. We touch everyone's life without even knowing it. This movie is very good. I liked it a lot.
6. Shop Girl - Shop Girl was quite good too, a different Steve Martin movie. I'm sure the book is much better. They tend to do more justice to the characters than movies.
7. Spanglish - Spanglish was really good. I did not expect such for an Adam Sandler movie but it was really good. The ending was not as I wanted it to be but it was good just the same.
8. Mrs Henderson Presents - I discovered Mrs Henderson Presents from the previews on one of the DVDs I was watching and I surely had to watch it. The trailer was very interesting. It was a good movie. Judi Dench was a delight as always.
9. Under The Tuscan Sun - spoke about this here.
10. Two For the Money - I could watch this movie forever just looking and goggling over Matthew McConaughey's 6 pack. But yah, acting was very good too with Al Pacino in the cast, its contagious I guess.
11. Annie - Ofcouorse I had to check this DVD out not only for my daughter but for myself as well. Annie is quite a character. Would love to see this on stage someday soon.
12. Heidi - What a touching tale. Shirley Temple was delightful. Very cute.
13. Little Miss Broadway - another Shirley Temple movie. Got my kid hooked on oldies movies now.

You've watched about as many movies in the past month as I have! I've seen Pride & Prejudice, Annie, and the Shirley Temple movies, but none of the others--how were they?
Awesome, the top three on your list are BY FAR the best of the bunch!
Spanglish wrecked me. :) LOVED that movie!
I just started doing TT, and that's how I found you! ::waves!::
Number one is one of my favorite movies ever. I've read Shop Girl but I've never seen it. How was it?
I saw Mrs Henderson Presents not long ago. Loved it!
hanks Rims for the visit. Heidi was a good movie. It was a good family movie to watch, a classic.
Hi Darla,
All the other movies were all good. I like Shirley Temple movies, my daughter loved it too.
Thanks for dropping by.
Hi fullbodytransplant,
Surely good to know, other people have enjoyed watching these movies as well.

Hi ~Cat,
Spanglish was really good. I did not expect such for an Adam Sandler movie but it was really good. The ending was not as I wanted it to be but it was good just the same.
Welcome to the T13 family.
Hello AJ Chase,
I listened to Pride and Prejudice audio book which is why I watched the movie, Both were equally good. Awesome for sure. Shop Girl was quite good too, a different Steve Martin movie. I'm sure the book is much better. They tend to do more justice to the characters than movies.
Hello Nicholas,
I discovered Mrs Henderson Presents from the previews on one of the DVDs I was watching and I surely had to watch it. The trailer was very interesting. It was a good movie. Judi Dench was a delight as always.
