Watching movies is something I enjoy doing to relax! Recently, I set up a special room in my home where I can watch movies using my laptop and an LCD projector. I don’t own a TV, so I just show the movies on a blank wall. Such fun!
Here are some of my favorites:
- Something’s Gotta Give with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton is my number one favorite movie of all time and is one of the few movies I own! The house in this movie is the star in my book!
- Julie & Julia with Meryl Streep is another favorite. (I liked it much better than the book.) Since I love to cook, I especially enjoyed this movie. I own a red Le Creuset Dutch oven just like in the movie and its my favorite thing to cook in.
- It’s Complicated with Meryl Streep, Steve Martin, and Alec Baldwin cracks me up. Again, the house is pretty incredible. You’re probably sensing some patterns by now.
- Letters to Juliet with Amanda Seyfried and Vanessa Redgrave is a new favorite movie. Such a sweet love story!
- Annie Hall with Diane Keaton. I do enjoy Woody Allen movies.
- Recently I borrowed Bridesmaids from my neighbor. What a hoot!
- It’s a Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart is a movie I’ll be watching in the next few weeks. Love it even when it’s not the Christmas season!
- The Bishop’s Wife with Cary Grant (1947) is another wonderful old flick.
- Casablanca with Humphrey Bogart… doesn’t get much better than this!
What are some of your favorite movies? Always looking for good ones to rent!
Hi Debbie – I can’t wrap presents unless I put in “A Christmas Carol”. I like the older versions and never get tired of watching it. M.Mallon
As an elementary teacher, one of my all-time favorites HAS to be “You’ve Got Mail” with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. She owns a children’s book store, which is probably what I’d love to do IF I weren’t a teacher! And then, of course, there’s the best part, where Tom Hanks character emails her the following lines:
“Don’t you just love New York in the fall? Makes me wanna buy school supplies. A bouquet of newly-sharpened pencils is what I’d send you.”
Oh, just absolutely straight to the heart of every teacher alive! Now HE knows how to sweet talk a girl! LOVE me some Tom Hanks!
Crash is my favorite. Also check out No Reservations. I watched that during a two hour dental appointment. Very entertaining.
Sorry I’m a little behind on reading your posts! (That’s what Christmas break is for though, right? I do feel the need to add my two cents though…
The Bishop’s Wife is something my mom bought me just a couple of Christmases ago. I love it! Another favorite is North by Northwest, also with Cary Grant, and Sabrina with Audrey Hepburn.
