More movies!!

Okay ... FINALLY, I have caught up with some of the summer's movies, as well as some older movies. Quick review:
  • De-Lovely - I liked it a LOT ... the music was WONDERFUL, and they played Anything Goes only about 50 times. Oh, and Ashley Judd's acting gets better and better with everything she does (and in this one, she even sings a bit!)
  • Sixth Sense - Finally, I managed to talk myself into sitting through this movie (I hate horror movies ... they give me nightmares. If you want me to watch a movie, don't advertise it with a kid whispering "I see dead people." Ugh!) Anyway ... the scariness set aside, I thought this was a fabulous movie ... quite reminiscent of A Beautiful Mind.
  • The Bourne Supremacy - Every bit as good as the first. Well, except that I didn't see any Mini-Coopers. (sigh...) Can anyone comment on the rumor that they're already talking about making a third? I heard it, but can't find the proof....
  • The Notebook - Okay, can you say "SOB"? Because it was impossible to actually LEAVE the theater when the credits rolled because everyone (EVERYONE) in the place was still crying, audibly.

And, have I mentioned that I am quickly becoming a fan of the TV show 24? Well, the concept is that each episode is one hour of a 24-hour time frame, thus the season runs 24 episodes, each consecutive hours within the story. It's a action/adventure/spy sort of thing (I love it!) My friend Kristi got me hooked on it! I have rented and watched all of the first season and about half of the second season. They'll be showing the third season over Labor Day weekend, and I'll tape that and watch it then. The fourth season will start in January. Well, now I'm hooked. Thanks, Kristi!! :-)

OK, I recently took the Notebook out on CD from the library not knowing what it was about except for the movie trailers I had seen. Well, I read the back jacket for a story synopsis and nearly started crying just from that!

And I just started it, so DON"T TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT IT ;).
