"I Think I'm Losing Myself"....Away From Her

Sat, 6 Sep 2008 01:29:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - This movie could have been very depressing and to a certain degree it definitely was, but I want to stress that the actors did an amazing job with their performances. This is a story of Fiona Anderson (beautiful Julie Christie), wife of Grant...

Mon, 1 Sep 2008 15:22:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - I rented this movie because I've always enjoyed the Temptations and their music. They have such wonderful harmonies and great songs. The movie opens in 1958, as the boys are still in high school. The original guys come from good homes in the...

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 14:45:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - Our local library here was giving books away one day. Yes, they were giving away an excess of books, I suppose you could say. I went armed with a shopping bag, just in case and, "only to look". This book as one of the books I picked up because I...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - Browsing the British section at my local video store, I found this film calling my name from the shelves. I immediately picked it when I saw Maggie Smith's photo on the front. How had I never heard of this? From 2005, it also stars Rowan Atkinson,...

Until September....oh my, it's already August

Mon, 18 Aug 2008 15:30:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - I remember that I first rented this movie back sometime in 1985. I had seen Karen Allen in the first Indiana Jones movie and liked her zesty character in that movie. She's got a lot of charm, is likable and cute. I think she's a good actress and I'm glad...

Fri, 15 Aug 2008 14:43:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - El Capitan Canyon is a beautiful place tucked away just north of Santa Barbara and Goleta, California. It is right off of the 101 freeway, which sounds noisy, but as soon as you enter the campgrounds you feel like you're miles away from...

Paris: Je t'aime (I loved it too :)

Wed, 13 Aug 2008 02:04:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - This was a delightfully different kind of film. It reminded me somewhat of "Coffee and Cigarettes" because the entire movie is made up of a series of vignettes of completely different and unrelated stories. The only thing tying them together is...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - I've had trouble with dry skin for most of my life. Having had eczema since I was a baby, I have found good ways to deal with dry itchy skin most of the time. That is except for my feet. I have very dry skin on the heels of my feet, as many people do. I...

Sat, 26 Jul 2008 17:37:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - I liked the idea of this story. I have been a pug owner for about 12 years total now, with two pugs over those years. They are a wonderful breed. Doesn't every pet owner like the chance to read books about their particular type of pet? I figured this...

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 19:21:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - Not sure if I qualify officially as an "old lady" now, but the doctor told me to buy some support hose because I complained that my legs ache (and have some spider veins) on my legs. (Actually this trouble started when I was pregnant with my sons. My...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - What do you think of when you hear the word "Godiva"? The legendary naked lady riding on a horse, Lady Godiva? The 1960s hit song, "Lady Godiva" by Peter and Gordon? Or....do you think of 36 amazingly lovely chocolates and truffles in a...

Sat, 28 Jun 2008 02:38:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - Whether you choose to imbibe or not, Kahlua is a tasty alcoholic drink, no argument there. I don't often drink alcoholic beverages, but when I do, I enjoy something fairly decadent and sweet....probably more like a dessert than a straight alcohol...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author gaelkm - "The best movie I think I've ever seen." This was the quote I remember seeing in the newspaper advertising this movie when it was first released in 1976. I don't remember who said it, but it was by one of the movie critics at that time. I...
