"To Have and Have Not" taught me everything I needed to know about being a woman.<BR/><BR/>I actually have a bootleg DVD of "Porgy and BEss," with Poitier and Sammy Davis Jr. as Sportin' Life. For some reason, it hasn't been released on DVD. My copy only plays on my computer, but I love it. Incredibly dated, but great music.Clea Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10810838253598050028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4396875931357506685.post-53253540304776958212008-11-13T08:25:00.000-08:002008-11-13T08:25:00.000-08:00Caroline I have no doubt that you have seen more m...Caroline I have no doubt that you have seen more movies than me...but I am going to try and think of one!<BR/><BR/>Also really great is the entire Prime Suspect series with Helen Mirren...LOVED it. Detective Jane Tennyson, is such a smart, sexy, feminist, flawed, fabulous, and ambitious character. The cases can be pretty grizzly...but the casts are amazing and I just adored this series!!<BR/><BR/>Feel better.<BR/>G :)Gina Sorellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15651102053639300887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4396875931357506685.post-42503123724654201602008-11-13T07:50:00.000-08:002008-11-13T07:50:00.000-08:00Hey you win!

T...C:<BR/><BR/>Go get Toute Une Vie (1974, Claude Lelouche). This translates to And Now My Love.<BR/><BR/>This is one of my favorite movies. It is a love story, comedy. Gets a little silly at end, but it breaks every story structure rule in the book ... and works! Very French, but one of the greatest rule-breakers ever and brilliant. the two main characters never meet until the last scene in the movie. The whole story is about what leads up to their love affair. The movie ends where the traditional love story would begin... when the lovers meet. And it works!!!! It's brilliant... but WARNING: very French!<BR/><BR/>A must see for any sick novelist climbing the walls of her sick room.<BR/><BR/> J :)Jeff Lyonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07202755992217117670noreply@blogger.com
