I really have stopped watching movies like that for the most part. The older I get, the harder it is to stomach horrors, even if it is considered "art."<BR/><BR/>If I were you and I had enough energy to go outside, I'd go for a walk. I'd buy an armful of books (not that you need them) or maybe a lipstick. And eat something yummy.<BR/><BR/>If I couldn't make it out the door, I'd probably watch some Laurel and Hardy (Way Out West is a good one, with the tickle scene) or something beautiful and romantic like Amelie.tangobabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01288974184200212536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-38310132057594551132008-10-21T16:53:00.000+02:002008-10-21T16:53:00.000+02:00Pretty movies that make me wish I were there - mov...Pretty movies that make me wish I were there - <I>movies with no deep message</I>. Movies from my childhood. I recently watched <I>Pollyanna</I> instead of some political ickiness on another channel. I'm big on things like <I>Under the Tuscan Sun</I> - so-so movie, incredible book, but nontheless the movie makes me happy; <I>Anna and the King</I> w/Jodie Foster because the King is just so good looking & the landscapes wonderful; <I>Shirley Valentine</I> because she gets away; <I>A Little Princess</I> - the one from 1995 - because it's just so gorgeous. The latest <I>Little Women</I>. <I>Lord of the Rings</I>. Movies that make me feel safe, and even better that I've seen them a thousand times. No surprises.<BR/><BR/>:) Debid smith kaich joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13450581639610967780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-8156981486351788842008-10-21T14:15:00.000+02:002008-10-21T14:15:00.000+02:00hi amanda--i think it would last about 30 seconds ...hi amanda--i think it would last about 30 seconds around here too, then the child would insist on bowling against me on the Wii or playing cards or designing Bratz clothing or something...never any peace. :-) but listening to music and has helped significantly since I wrote that one... :-)julochkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884096685015570257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-27254885765569630922008-10-21T13:27:00.000+02:002008-10-21T13:27:00.000+02:00to cheer me up...the best thing I can think of is ...to cheer me up...the best thing I can think of is to cuddle up on the couch with a blanket and my kiddos snuggling in with me, no tv, no music, just me and the kids.<BR/><BR/>That usually lasts about 30 secoonds! :)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08090184398267603913noreply@blogger.com
