I've avoided all the films based on the novels because I don't want them to ruin the books.<br /><br />I watched a horror film over the weekend. It was called Shutter. It was about a couple that go over to Japan. Won't say anymore, except it was rubbish, predictable and not scary at all. <br /><br />Good to hear your son went off to school after such a busy weekend!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11203787363512693325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576999.post-39834101873523239822010-03-24T08:55:15.941-04:002010-03-24T08:55:15.941-04:00Shelli -

You might like Plain Truth, a mystery set in an Amish community. It was one of her earlier books and not quite so formulaic as her recent ones. <br /><br />Dominique - <br />I'll have to check out Defiance. Thanks for the recommendation!<br /><br />Kerry -<br />Is Precious out on DVD already? It sounds amazing! I'm not sure Ken will want to watch it with me, though - he doesn't like movies that are dark or depressing.<br /><br />SueSue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576999.post-34037090131182790312010-03-24T08:50:50.890-04:002010-03-24T08:50:50.890-04:00Chris -

I should borrow that one from the library for my son. He'd love it. He's home sick today and watching Pleasantville on TV - another excellent movie!<br /><br />We all want to see Star Trek, and I'll have to look for Butterfly on a Wheel. Thanks for the suggestion!<br /><br />My husband and I LOVED the Life on Mars TV show (it was canceled last year), but I heard recently that the British version was even better.<br /><br />Thanks very much for the Happiness Award! I'm glad I've been of some help to you - I know how difficult it is just after diagnosis. I hope you're getting some good rest this week.<br /><br />SueSue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576999.post-15381631713561555902010-03-24T08:09:46.143-04:002010-03-24T08:09:46.143-04:00I have watched loads of films this week, including...I have watched loads of films this week, including Star Trek, Bobby, Hard Eight, Inglourious Basterds and The Truman Show. Everyone should watch Butterfly On A Wheel- it is fab. I have also enjoyed both series of Life On Mars over the past couple of weeks and the first series of Ashes To Ashes is shaping up to be good too.<br /><br />I have nominated you for a Happiness Award because I appreciate all of the help and advice that you have given me.GlasgowChris78https://www.blogger.com/profile/00398456413827939057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576999.post-90497030350163450812010-03-24T02:36:10.960-04:002010-03-24T02:36:10.960-04:0027 dresses I remember being light and fun...and ye...27 dresses I remember being light and fun...and yes, I imagine a good balance to Jody Picoult. <br /><br />Hope your hubby is feeling better. Nothing like getting sick on a get away. Seems to work that way often though...the body relaxes and so does the immune system.<br /><br />This weekend we watched Precious, which I would give five stars and the academy award for best picture to. It is not easy to watch...hard subject, definitely upsetting at times. But, the beauty of humanity and hope that prevails carries the movie. The acting is amazing...amazing.<br /><br />Hope you and your boys are recouping from your weekend. Glad it was fun and worth the CFS debt.<br />Thank goodness for movies and our sofas to watch them from.Kerryhttp://www.lemon-aideonline.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576999.post-43251516161643233262010-03-23T19:27:47.795-04:002010-03-23T19:27:47.795-04:00I have become quite the fan of Daniel Craig especi...I have become quite the fan of Daniel Craig especially since I watched him (last weekend) in Defiance. It is a true story and his acting was amazing. (It takes place during the Nazi occupation era)<br /><br />What would we do without our books, movies and laptops!

A little more depth to it, and an actual story line.<br /><br />I've only read one Jodi Picoult book, "My Sister's Keeper," and I hated it. I don't know about the one you're referring to; a lot of people like her, so maybe I should give it another shot?

I think we actually own 27 dresses (when you have a daughter, you tend to collect chick flicks). <br /><br />I laughed when you said it's funny how Craig is always surprised at how tired he is. Ain't it the truth? Jes does the same thing and I just look at her with a "duh" expression. Sheesh.<br /><br />Have a great day.Lori Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808703279193470654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22576999.post-63367895752336435542010-03-23T07:50:59.595-04:002010-03-23T07:50:59.595-04:00Richard -
