I would see "Doubt," with Meryl Streep and the world of Benjamin, etc.. the new movie by Brad Pitt as it is said he is after an Oscar with the role.

I snuck out to see Marley and Me one day while everyone was watching football. It was a cute story, but it can certainly wait for home viewing. I like Jennifer Aniston and wanted to see her with Owen Wilson (he's a nut.) They were a fun couple.

I also like Meryl Streep so I may step out to see Doubt. I like paying to see the boomer women. It makes me think I'm doing my part to help them continue in an industry where younger women are casted to act for roles of older women.

I must've put my movie reviews in the wrong thread. "Ladies in Purple," fits the scenario of which you speak, Dotsie. I am anxious to see Marley and Me. I read the book and loved it except when they had to put Marley down. It was about the time I put Shadow down. And that was hard. Tim Allen & Jobeth Williams
are in the lighthearted, good feeling movie, "Jungle2Jungle."
Loved that. I put my DVD review over in the hints thread.
Sorry.

Anybody watch Prison Break. Hubby and I got hooked on that.
The writing is amazing: They have more ups and downs, twists and turns than the back roads of Colorado.

jabber, yes, the end is very sad, but it's a cute story.

I didn't read Marley and Me, but I'm reading John Grogan's memoir. He's a spectacular writer. I've laughed out loud many times. He's brutally honest. It's a great book for boomers to read and reminisce about their childhoods. It really takes me back.

Gran Torino with the masterful Clint Eastwood. He does something in his movie many wish they could also do.

Dotsie, MARLEY and ME was an excellent Grogan book. Filled with emotion and examples of how people need to treat and love a pet once brought into their family. NO, dogs and cats are not disposable as so many humans seem to think they are when they might be inconvenienced by them from time to time...GRRRRR!!!

My daughter and I went to see Benjamin Button with Brad Pitt and were so bored we left in the middle.

Dots, have you read any of Anne Tyler's books? They are all placed in you area.

Dianne, I've read several of her books. People from Baltimroe are so proud of her. She lived (not sure if she still does) about\five miles from us.

Our book club once talked about reading one of her books and inviting her to the discussion. That would be so cool, but a long shot for sure.

What books of hers have you read?

I saw Valkyrie last night. It was so good. I would recommend it to anyone. I do NOT like war movies, spies, James Bond, and all that other stuff...but I absolutely was on the edge of my seat through this entire movie. It's worth the highway robbery price to go see it! Tom Cruise (who I don't care for) was outstanding!

I read this morning he "may" be sued for using the globe in the movie that once belong to Hitler without permission. I swear...some people.
