Right now I have "The Birds' on TV. but I've been working and having dinner and just started my laundry and listening to the movie.
The first time I saw this one was with my daughter's father in a local theatre and I scrunched down to protect my neck, 1963.
I have seen a lot of movies, liked most and the only one I saw, as a young girl was "Passport to Pimlico' that I never underdstood one iota of it.
Then comes "The Princess Bride'. I sat in front of the TV while a video that my daughter's husband, at the time, had rented, and we were in her doctor's house, so they had running water and electricity for two weeks. I wanted to leave to get to the gas station before it closed at 11:00 as I was very, very low on gas. My eldest grandchild was tired and wanted to go to bed. The N SIL forced him to stay up to watch it!. Imagine! Forced him, and I needed help out of that house as there were no steps, just a long drop. No one offered to help when I said I wanted to go so I played the martyr and sat there. (think daughter too.) I HATE THAT MOVIE TO PIECES! The station was closed and I floated into my home town, 45 minutes away on gas fumes!.
Any movie I saw with the N at the beginning when he was false, Titanic, City of Angels, I understood as I was comfortable with him.
After he dropped his mask, out here and we went to the movies, I was so uncomfortable that I couldn't follow the story. My mind would be a whirlwind of
why is he holding my habnd?
Why is ne Not holding my hand?
Why does he not offer me some popcorn--such a big container and I can't even eat a small one.
I hate him
I think I still love him
Gad! I hope he doesn't want to discuss this movie on the way home--all I saw was a truck blowing up
5 years away from N, I watch movies, TV or DVD, with 'familiar'? titles ands I'll be damned, that's one hell of a good movie that I went to with the N and I missed all that good stuff?
In case anyone wonders. These 5 years alone, I can scarcley remember anything he did, except trash my car and lock me out of the house. An old dream about someone else.
I think I've been 'timing my life' by movies.
anyone else relate?
