Chic Flick Wisdom...

This past weekend I did not go to any new movies. I did watch a few of my movies at home. Now I am not even sure if I remember them all, but I will give it a try. When nothing much is on I put in a movie.

Saturday, I watched Penelope. I think it is going to turn into my new favorite. I already have some parts memorized! From Penelope you learn that the most important thing is to love yourself. I think it is really cool that she saved herself, no one else did it for her and that she did not want to change she liked herself just the way she was.

On Sunday, I watched Hope Floats. That is always a good one to watch. There are a lot of quotes from that one to learn from. There is the one about beginnings being scary but just give hope a chance to float up and it will. There is also one about being extravagant with your chances. These both come from her mother. Such a smart woman, she just lived life her own way and was happy. In the end her daughter learns the same thing.

I also watched Never Been Kissed on Sunday. Another movie that I love and have memorized. I love it when she shouts "I am not Josie Grossie anymore!" This movie is so sweet. She is a different person and can be whoever she wants. Her brother helps her to see that which I thought was cool.

I did not know that I had a theme to my movie viewing this past weekend but there it is. I think I watched something else but now I can't remember the others. I thought I would share the wisdom from chic flicks.

Mom in Hope Floats -- so wise, so crazy. I mean who stuffs their cat? Good show though. I forgot about Penelope. I always meant to go see it but I never got around to it. I'll have to make a visit to Red Box. And finally, Mr. Vartan in never been kissed is so hot, in a creepy, hitting on a high school girl kind of way.
