Robin Hood in Tights is so funny. I had to get the DVD. I also loved watching the A&E's Pride and Prejudice. and all. I liked Keira Knightly in PandP. I've now watched that one about a dozen times. We went to see Love Actually in the theater (my husband and I) and at first weren't sure if we liked it so much. Now we have watched it on TV and like it. Is the old Robin Hood with Olivia de Haviland also the one with Errol Flynn? I like that one, too, but also like Kevin Costner in Robin Hood (forget the rest of the title now).

And, Yours, Mine and Ours is about two Navy families that blend.
It just shows our good taste to enjoy some good clean fun, doesn't it?

Then you've got what I'm talking about. Who said anyone was old? WE just like old movies, right?! Before all the "jump in bed" movies started coming out. (PS--I'm probably older than you are---wanna bet?)
Love your memory--as well as your movie choices!!!

Anita--I liked the old version of Cheaper by the Dozen--I think Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda may have been in it--called With Six You get Eggrolls I believe. TMC is great for the oldies, isn't it?!

I LOVE Cheaper By the Dozen - the old version!!! It was on a couple of weeks ago. I've read the book more that a dozen times, and still laugh and cry at the same parts. The Steve Martin one is ok, but the title is missleading. It is nothing like the book. I also like Doris Day in With Six You Get Eggroll and Please Don't Eat the Daisies, and Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda in Yours, Mine and Ours. All three of those were on TMC channel a couple of weeks ago also. It was a late night, because I had to stay up and watch them all!

I watched Mama Mia again last night. My daughter watched it with me. She is twenty and didn't expect to like it but she was pleasantly surprised.

Someone recommended GhostTown. They liked it.

while this is not about travel--I thoroughly agree that nothing is as real as going to Washington DC and seeing our monuments up close. I remember crying at the Korean War memorial the first time I saw it--and the Viet Nam wall has done it's number on me 3 times. Arlington and the laying of the wreath was emotional, too.
BTW--I enjoyed National Treasure and all its references.

Well--with free Showtime and HBO, I watched 3 movies last week. One of the profound ones was The Last King of Scotland with Forrest Whitaker. How sad to learn even more about the killings of about 400,000 Uganden Africans at the hand of one dictator. We need to remember that this was real. Very moving.

I do agree about Meg Ryan. And Rosalind is always fun for me to watch. I love Auntie Mame.
