Where to start...I just really love movies. I can watch a romantic comedy, action/adventure, or a sci-fi drama and be totally entertained. I think I may have been an actress in a former life...I like any good movie. Superman Returns, Narnia, Lord of the Rings, Adam Sandler's movies (especially Happy Gilmore, Click, and Spanglish), Bridget Jones's Diary, Love Actually, Garden State, The Last Kiss, Eternal Sunshine, Annie (the original), Popeye (with Robin Williams), Disney Movies (old school...Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Pete's Dragon), Labrynth, Anything with Gene Kelly in it, Under the Tuscan Sun, Mandy Moore's movie, The Girl on the Bridge, Anything with Johnny Depp in it (Pirates, Rear Window, and The Man Who Cried), I like sundance pics and some foreign films (Amelie and The Motocycle Diaries), Superhero movies are fun (Batman, Superman, Spiderman, X-Men), Audrey or Katherine Hepburn movies, and anythin with Gregory Peck ( I love Roman Holiday...and again the list goes on and on.
Greys Anatomy, 24 (I love Jack Bauer), Smallville, Boston Legal, Scrubs, CSI (any of them).
I just read The Nanny Diaries and it was pretty good. Anything by Jane Austin, Charlotte and Emily Bronte-Jane Eyre, The Little Prince, The Last Unicorn, The Prophet, and The Bible. I recently read The Girl with the Pearl Earring but my new years resolution is to read more for the fun of it instead of just for school purposes. I read The Sunflower in a book club just last month and it was pretty interesting (WW II biography/memoir). Recently I have been reading various EGW books and I must say that she was a very interesting lady. I look forward to meeting her someday.
I guess my heroes would depend on time period and genreCONSTANT: My Savior, My husband Matthew (there is no one like him and he's my perfect match...no doubt)Musical Heroes: Patsy Cline, John Cash, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Elvis, Beatles, U2 (Bono)...and I'm sure there are more.Public Religious and/or Political Figures: Mother Theresa, Ghandi, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., Bono-again for his humanitarian efforts....and I'm sure I could think of more.Sports: Cal Ripken Jr. (He's the greatest!)
