Recent Movies 3-28-21

Recent Movies that we have watched.......  Once again, no particular order....


City Slickers --- Billy and friends make rounding up cattle look Oh so easy   πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ 


Legally Blonde --- started out rather silly, moved on to not so bad after allπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


Nothing in Common ---- one of Tom Hanks' movies that was totally unenjoyable for me, since I "love" him so much πŸ‘πŸ‘


Last Vegas ---- not a Michael Douglas fan, however, I LOVE Robert, Morgan and Kevin, so I brought this home, one of the few movies where I could see my husband laughing, laughing, laughing over the antics of the over the hill guys!πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


Strangers in Good Company ---- Canadian film from around 1980, group of women become stranded in the Canadian wilderness, they share secrets of their lives.  Actual photos of the women from their earlier years --- looking this up, it seems that the dialogue was ad-libbed for most of the movie. NOT an action movie. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


Pelican Brief ----- adapted from John Grisham's book of the same title.  Excellent acting from both Julia and Denzel, on the edge of your seat suspense in many scenes.πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


To Catch A Thief ---- Cary Grant and Grace Kelly come together in one of Alfred Hitchcock's better films - great scenery.  One of those films that we can both watch often πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


Sleeping with the Enemy ---- Julia's great performance in probably the best drama she's been in. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


Last Chance Harvey ---- Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson, 2 lonely people who come from different worlds.πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


Intern --- Robert DeNiro's most enjoyable film ---- LOVE the scene when he and the 3 young guys break and enter into Anne Hathaway's mother's house to delete an email on the mother's laptop!  Another one we can watch frequently.πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
