It looks like my quotes are not generating a lot of interest so I will give it a rest for a while.

By the way, the last one was from Cool Runnings

In Theaters:

Enough Said - This delightful romantic comedy is a refreshing look at romance between middle aged people looking for love after being burned by their first marriages.  Julia Louis-Dreyfus and James Gandolfini play the leading roles with Cattherine Keener and Toni Collette in supporting roles.  It is a story of letting go and finding new love with a twist.  We left the movie smiling, but a little sad knowing this was Gandolfini's last role.  For a charming movie, see this one.  

On Netflix:

Stands Up Guys - This was a change of pace for me - not a foreign or Black movie.  The movie stars Al Pacino and Chirstopher Walken with co-star Alan Arkin.  Julianna Margules has a small role as do other actors I did not know.  It is a comedy that follows the three former criminals' lives after Val (Pacino) gets out of prison.  The ending was a little Butch Cassidy.  It was fun seeing these actors relate as older citizens.  The scene in the pharmacy was really funny.  For an enjoyable movie, put this on your list.  

On Netflix and Instant Streaming:

Populaire - I had seen the coming attractions for this film and when I saw it was on streaming, I thought it would be an excellent choice for my AAUW movie group and I was correct.  This delightful film is a throw back to the Rock Hudson Doris Day films of the 50's.  All I can say is that we have come a long way from being the obedient secretary who only wears dresses, hats and hose and types on a manual typewriter.  The film is just delightful.  An added bonus is the music that plays throughout the film.  It brought back many memories and put a smile on my face.  For a lovely film, see this one.  

DWTS:

I cannot believe that ElizabethBerkley was eliminated.  She was such a graceful dancer.  How can Bill Engvall and Leah Remeni still be on??  Jack Osbourne is doing an admirable job, but I think in the final analysis Corbin Bleu will come out on top.
