Nights in Rodanthe - Read the Book

And that’s not a diss against the film either; just an observation.  Surprisingly enough, I enjoyed Nights in Rodanthe, the film based on the novel of the same name by Nicholas Sparks.  But, I enjoyed it primarily because I had read the book and I understood the story, the background of the characters, the plot […]


Thoughts About Lies - Body of Lies That Is

If you’ve been reading this blog, you know I could hardly wait for Body of Lies to debut.  I had been anticipating that film since July when the first glimpses of any kind of buzz surrounding it began to take hold of the cyberwaves.  I mean, with the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe, […]


Are YOU Attracted to Your Mate’s “Otherness”?

I imagine right about now you’re thinking, “What the hell is she talking about?”  Ahhh…but there is a purpose behind the title!
There’s a new movie coming out in a couple of weeks, Nights in Rodanthe, the adaptation of the best-selling novel by Nicholas Sparks.  It stars Richard Gere and Diane Lane who pair up again […]


Body of Lies - Highly Anticipated

Leonardo DiCaprio. Russell Crowe. Ridley Scott. What a combination!
One of the most anticipated movies for the fall season 2008, Body of Lies, is coming soon to a theater near you - October 10th, to be exact. And yes, I know it’s not even August yet but the buzz around the net on all the film […]


Batman: The Dark Knight is Just Plain…Dark

And I’m pretty confident that ”dark” is the best way to describe it. 
Batman: The Dark Knight brings all other Batman movies to date to a whole new level.  I walked away at the end just utterly amazed at the sheer psychological factors that inhabit this film.  From the plot points (which you think you’ve figured it all […]


“Sex” is Back and The Latest Hollywood Buzz

Not that it was ever going out of style.  Oh wait!  That’s for another post on another blog.  :)  The sophisticated ladies of New York City are back.  THAT’S what I meant! 
The long-anticipated movie version of the UBER successful HBO series, Sex In The City, opens in theaters this weekend.  Ladies, get out your stilettos, […]


Rewind- The Kingdom (2007)

I finally got around to catching a movie last weekend.  My husband and I decided to spend some quality time together so we popped some hot buttered popcorn, poured ourselves a beverage or two, and selected The Kingdom on our cable In-Demand channel.  We were in the mood for something dramatic, something that would have […]


Road Trippin’

So here I am on I-95 heading north in Virginia on my way to Massachusetts for the weekend.  Yeah, I know - CRAZY!  The trip will take us about 12-14 hours up…and 12-14 hours back.  At the very least, it’s taken 11 1/2 hours or at the most, 16 hours.  Crazy.  But, my headin’ home […]


Vantage Point - New Meaning to “Know Your Surroundings”!

For the first time in over a month, I had a chance to take in a flick this past weekend.  Some of this is due to the fact there wasn’t really anything out there that I absolutely had to see and some of this is due to the fact I really haven’t been inspired to […]


Rewind - We Are Marshall (2006) - A Commercial for Kleenex

Seriously. I’m not even entirely sure I can write a brief synopsis of the film expertly since I spent more time in front of my TV as a blubbering fool then I did absorbing the movie. BUT, I’ll give it the ole college try (pun intended).
We Are Marshall is the tale of a University, a […]
