POSTED: Wed, 05/16/2012 - 5:25am Think Like A Man Saw this romantic comedy on Sunday with a girlfriend who just got stung by a fellow she had been dating. the movie is based on a book by Steve Harvey and the boundaries women have to set when romantically involved with a man. Some good laughs and some very good pointers. Most important it helped my friend smile and realize that this fellow was not the right guy for her.

POSTED: Wed, 05/16/2012 - 1:38am I love foreign films! I never tire of viewing "Under the Tuscan Sun" with Diane Lane --- always uplifting. Other faves are Midnight in Paris, Miss Potter, Jane Eyre, Il Postino (very long with Eng subtitles), Cinema Paradiso (love it too), These films are a great escape -- The English Patient (Ralph Fiennes always nice to look at), Dr. Zhivago, Lawrence of Arabia

POSTED: Wed, 03/28/2012 - 11:45am The Intouchables I highly recommend this movie. It's French and it's a hilarious comedy but still has a deep meaning to it. I can't remember when I laughed so much during a movie, I am sure you will all like it,too;)

It is a documentary about a woman (vegan) who takes 3 New Yorkers as an experiment about becoming vegan. It is funny, light in many ways, intense in others. It is real, it is thoughtprovoking, it is sad, it is happy. The health transformations are amazing. It was worth my time to watch.

POSTED: Sun, 01/29/2012 - 6:41am The Artist & The Descendants We watched both films yesterday. The Artist is wonderful! It took a little while to get into it ... but it's a truly great film and a lovely change from the norm. The lead character is played by the charming French actor Jean Dujardin and there are surprises throughout which will make you laugh. The Descendants was a good film too (who can resist gorgeous George?) His character was quite different to the usual suave characters he plays ... but shows his adaptability in acting. I won't say much more so as not to spoil it for those who have not yet seen it :-) However, I did love that it was filmed in Hawaii and reminded me of our holiday there.

POSTED: Tue, 01/24/2012 - 8:38pm Midnight in Paris Beautifully, lovingly filmed scenes of Paris, and the always adorable Owen Wilson, along with some deliciously unlikeable characters. A sweet, pretty little whimsical movie - very fun!

POSTED: Tue, 01/24/2012 - 3:13pm slowly rewatching my Audrey Hepburn collection... You can never go wrong there! Also, my husband took me to see "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" (Daniel Craig's version) on Sunday, and I really enjoyed it. I was told the Swedish version was much better, so I expected to leave disappointed. Michael even liked it, and he didn't read the trilogy.

POSTED: Thu, 01/12/2012 - 1:26pm THE ARTIST I enjoyed THE ARTIST - a one of a kind and amusing silent film photographed in black-and-white. Made in 2011 in France with french actors/acresses! A joy to see how all meaning and emotion is communicated only by facial expressions, and some simple subtitles in English. Thumbs up!

Ava	POSTED: Fri, 09/09/2011 - 3:27pm The Lady Killers The original wonderful and classic film (the remake with Tom Hanks is very good too.) A funny and charming film where you can expect the unexpected!

POSTED: Wed, 09/07/2011 - 8:17am Lost in Austen I caught this on Netflix. It was a BBC miniseries about a young lady from London obsessed with Pride and Prejudice, and suddenly finds her own modern self in the middle of the novel, having switched places with Elizabeth Bennett. It's a fun little comedy of errors as she fumbles along and tries to steer people in the direction of the novel. Darcy must wait to meet Elizabeth! Jane must end up with Mr. Bingley, but somehow agrees to marry Mr. Collins! Frivolous and cute, with gorgeous costumes and scenery.
