More Movie Reviews
Monday, July 23rd, 2007 08:21 pmGeez, I’m falling behind with the Netflix. I’m pretty sure we haven’t got our money’s worth the past couple of months. Hopefully we’ll start making up for that soon. At least we got a reduced monthly fee recently. When does that ever happen?
Just recently, busman1994 let me borrow his Big Chill videotape. This movie has been one of my favorites since it debuted. I love the group dynamic in this. I love the love they have for each other. This feeling is something I’ve been trying to achieve my entire adult life. Unfortunately, a steady diet of DVDs has spoiled me for videotape. Gah! The quality of this was terrible! It wasn’t even homemade and it was terrible! But the movie and the message still play well. I snuggled into DH’s lap on a lazy Sunday afternoon to watch, and was just as amused and touched as ever. The funny thing is, earlier that day, bzdchris and busman1994 quoted this at me: “We’ve taken a vote. We’re never leaving here.” (Jeff Goldblum says it) That’s it – that’s the feeling I’m looking for. Where the people who’ve become my family want to be with me, in our home, feeling the love, forever. I think we’ve gotten really close to achieving that on an ongoing basis. It’s a great feeling. So that’s the secret to Goldy’s happiness. If you want me to have that happy rush, just tell me you wish you could stay when you’re leaving. Or stay a little longer. That works too.
