I am married, and the mother of the two beautiful young ladies in my profile widget. I am not here to find a date.
I'm a romantic and a big kid at heart (thus the love for all things Disney). I love movies that make me cry (silly, huh?) as much those that make me laugh. Most of all I love movies that deal with human relationships or those with an unlikely hero. What I don't like is those movies that cross the line from funny and go right into stupid. More about me: I am open to talk to people of all ages and races, male or female, about movies or other interests and hobbies. One thing...Flixster is not a popularity contest, or a race to see how fast you can build your friends list. If you send me a friend invitation (being the person that I am), I will probably accept. However, I then expect to hear from you from time to time. If I don't hear from you for weeks and weeks after the initial contact, expect to be cut from my list. And please, please fill out your profile and take the MCT before sending me a friend request. If you can't commit to doing at least that, then I doubt very seriously you can commit to an online friendship. And so we're clear....my email address, messenger id, phone number, etc. are reserved for VERY good friends and family. So unless you've been a friend for a good long while, don't even ask. P.S. I'm not an idiot. Do not ask me to ship you a car, a cell phone, clothes, or money for a plane ticket or groceries. I cannot rescue you from a refugee camp. And I am not going to write you a letter of invitation to the U.S. or help you to find an American wife/husband. While I commend anyone who has the balls to ask favors of a total stranger, I am not the one! AND I WILL DEFINITELY, DEFINITELY NOT ACCEPT A CHECK FROM YOU!!!!! So don't get it twisted, okay? Keep these things in mind, and we will get along just fine.  |

Bridge to Terabithia
PG
Went into this film not knowing what to expect, but I found it to be sweet and touching.
The Libertine
R
Rochester: "Allow me to be frank at the commencement. You will not like me. The gentlemen will be envious and the ladies will be repelled. You will not like me now and you will like me a good deal less as we go on."
Beautifully shot, brilliantly acted, The Libertine displays the debauchery that was 17th century England. Johnny Depp, as John Wilmont, 2nd Earl of Rochester, shows (once again) why he is one of the greatest character actors of our time. Samantha Morton and Rosamund Pike are stellar as Wilmont's love interests (lover and long-suffering wife). John Malkovich as Charles II, rounds out this great cast.
This film is not for the prudish or those with what I call "virgin ears"- that is my warning to you.
Edward Scissorhands
PG-13
An artificial man trying to fit into the real world, Edward initially finds his niche, even daring to fall in love. But he soon learns that hatred and fear of the unknown can turn the tide very quickly. This Burton/Depp collaboration is beautifully done and painfully touching (literally).

1.
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
R
A tale of revenge and blood lust - Johnny Depp delivers an outstanding performance, as does Helena Bonham Carter!
2.
The Passion of the Christ
R
Reading about the Passion is one thing - to see it portrayed on screen is indescribable. To think that someone went through this for me.....
4.
Imitation of Life
Unrated
Love this movie, even though it makes me cry EVERY TIME! Sometimes we realize, too late, what is important in life.
5.
The Color Purple
PG-13
A great portayal of the plight of the black woman and the struggles we face. Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah Winfrey shine in this film! Danny Glover emodies the role of "Mister" so well, that I hated him for years after. Extraordinary cast, extraordinary film!
