Wooooo HOO! Topsy's Cinnamon popcorn.. Oh my goodness me, oh my!! :lol: Hiya, Neighbor.. hey I grew up w/ the 49 version too.. in fact, I think my very first time ever watching it was one Christmas when we came out here to KC to visit my Grandma for Christmas (way back in the early 70's when my dad ...

That would be such fun, Ro. I actually dream about doing that! Wouldn't it be a hoot.. we'll have to invite Neighbor Knitty too.. she is just across the state line from me (come on over sometime Neighbor! I still owe you a Rose of Sharon and a Lilac bush.. ha.. Jackie.. do you need any extra landsc...

Jackie.. I think if we had to compare notes.. ha. I am opposite of you in that I prefer how Beth's story is told in the later version. (but again.. I think it is just because of how well I love Margaret's portrayal) As for Professor Bhaer.. hmmmmmmmmmm I really don't have a leaning on him.. ha. I li...

Wait.. this just in.. ha. Now I am torn trying to choose my favorite "Marmee" aggh... Mary does and awfully nice job too!

Ha.. sweet picture there Ms. Favell! I have to say, I always (always) look forward to watching this story.. either version.. 33 OR 49 is a-ok with me. I can't even tell you how many times I have seen either (or both) of them over the years. To be honest, there are things I like about them both.. but...

OH that sweet little Beth March.. just too good for this world.... (sob.. sniff.. sigh)

Ro, move over, I'm headed your way....... Ha! Come on over, anytime, Neighbor. The Missouri side of town is only just a few miles away. :D PS: Ms Favell... don't be too impressed by me.. I only looked up the storyline to refresh my old and fading memory. ha. (I was afraid I was starting to sound li...

And see now, Jackie.. THAT's what you might find if you are willing to slog down to the bottom of that "deep well" I mentioned, ha. Thanks for sharing the other side, Mr.A. because I DO believe there is a different way to see the story than just a big ole bloodbath, ha. And yet, I still do...

Wendy.. I am sure you are right that it could be possible to find more to a movie after a second viewing. Wouldn't be the first time. And I know this film has its fan-base. It WAS a huge award winning film, afterall. So I am sure there is more to it and it was not all about the carnage, though it ju...

Hiya Neighbor Nancy.. I think that IS Mr. Carlson on the floor there. ha. (and meanwhile.. I like the turkey hiding in plain site. Too funny. I bet he is doing re-con and the other turkeys are on their way. HA. (Les Nesman was right.. they HAVE mounted a counter-attack, afterall. Gotta watch out for...

Not a bad thing indeed.. Enjoy. (And PS: regarding the WKRP clip.. ha. I saw it for the first time decades ago when the show aired on tv WAAAAYYY back when I was a teenager (almost dinosaur days, ha) And to this DAY I still chuckle just imagining all the carnage.. and I love the ending where Mr. Car...

Can't say too much good about Unforgiven, either. (though in all fairness.. I shouldn't say too much bad either.. because I haven't seen it in a very long time (and only saw it once) so my memory may not be TOO clear. But I think I have to agree with others that the biggest issues I have with the fi...

A Very Happy Thanksgiving one and all. (Thanks for the fun video, Mr. Mongo, sir. Meanwhile.. If I may.. I just wanted to share that I hear they are giving away FREE turkeys at the local shopping mall this year.. woo hoo!)

HAPPY Birthday Neighbor Nancy!!! This calls for a celebration!! Ice Cream for everybody!! Woo Hoo!

HELLOOO Miss Maven.. I will have to be a rule breaker.. ha. (but I see I am not alone!) :) but for me it really does depend.. on a lot of things. Mostly the reason for "happiness" or "sadness" in a story. And of course you have to rule out certain things like, for instance, is it...
