House of sand and fog..
I've heard good things about this movie..so last night I decided to watch..and was impressed..right up until a sleazy affair was presented as a love story..and shown in graphic detail, at which point I had weird sensations running through and all over my body not the least of which was a strong urge to throw up [first time I have been affected that badly by TV for crying out loud..but the scene was very, very graphic ] and I had to quit watching after that.
So I don't know what happened, never will probably, and am very glad I didn't go to a theater to see it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
Too bad

Yeah, you never notice until you are in this situation how many of the shows on tv, movies, etc deal with the topic, most very poorly.
I think I will know I am fully recovered when seeing crap like that on tv no longer triggers memories of my fww's A.

i saw it awhile ago and posted about it---you'd think three years into this i would have had a clue for a movie with FOG right in the title....but no, like you, i watched it. yuck! the whole movie is formed from that affair and the outreach of its destruction. it was like watching a train wreck...

I even had to stop watching Pretty Woman, for heaven's sake... And a classic like Doctor Zhivago will never be the same to me, either.
It's better now, though. If an A pops up, or if it's obvious that a man/woman is tempted to have one, I mumble "idiot" and my H does get the message... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
But any graphic scenes of people in a A WILL turn me, and the tv, OFF !!

Yep, another story with a BS who is not a character, who is barely mentioned.
I was at the library, looking at audio books, and I was shocked at how many stories there were about women escaping from their awful husbands and compromised lives by having affairs and scooting off to la-la land. Most of them written by women.
When you know something from experience, it really helps you separate the good writers from the big fakers.
