The word "like" was not necessary in this post.

Perfect.

This film is a who's who of British actors. I thought Ms. Knightly, however, was spectacular. Ms. Ronan...wonderful...made me hate her and not pity the old version trying to atone for a terrible act of hateful jealous sabotage.

Not predictable. The antithesis of every Hallmark movie ever made.

I feel this same way about Emma Thompson. She is just an extraordinary talent and I love seeing her in anything.

This and that is often "implied" in animated films rather than obvious. Plus, there are quite a few same-sex relationship characters that get past insanely conservative parents who can't even conceive of gay people but, for little kids, are just regular people they see on TV every day. What I mean is...little kids probably see all of what makes the PG rating on TV all the time (being parked in front of the screen by Grandma while Mommy works). However, the film-length animations that are funny (ones I have seen are Up and The Secret Life of Pets) have some mildly scary and overtly sad content.

So, at last blush, 007 was a handsome fierce black woman. Now THAT would be grand. Something nobody expected.

Seems like his role in the Hunger Games opened him up for all manner of hidden roles. And he has become something of a method actor. I like seeing him pop up in this and that.

One of the best endings I have seen in a long time.

I haven't seen it. But I will watch it after reading your post. Plus anything with Frances McDormand...I am all in.

Is there a reason, other than the name "Key", that Key West boasts the best key lime pie? The pie you get there is much better than other versions. Just wondered.

I have started counting the accomplishments I have every day. I do it at night and in the morning. Just one day at a time. It helps keep me going.

They are so cute!

Common sense gun laws and a ban on assault rifles.

What? Yes, of course I got that. I don't trust the police. It always amazes me how people misunderstand what seems very clear.

I immediately thought of Stonewall, where the fight was against the police. Also, I thought of all the innocent people of color who have been killed by police. I really don't have enough trust to have any kind of positive reaction to this news.

I used to be a bit frightened of thunderstorms. Lightning scared me because of the loud noise that followed. Then I got a little dog who was afraid of the thunder and who I had to protect and comfort during storms. I am calm, now, and unafraid.

They're so short.

Beyond help. Child welfare is the least priority next to education and improved, less expensive healthcare. There are countries getting all of this right. We COULD look to see what they are doing and follow suit. But no. The US is beyond help.

Kaboom!

I am corrected. Thanks.

So sorry.

Smelled really "Earthy." Could you be more precise?

So common an occurrence it doesn't even make CNN anymore.
