I enjoyed Cinema Paradiso.
I heard that Will Smith's new movie is good: 'The Pursuit of Happiness'....Michael Medved gave it 4 stars anyway.

Ya'll have great taste...Cinema Paradiso is my all time fav movie since I first discovered it in 1993...I watch it annually just for the romance factor! That little boy is the most darling mischevious thing...my youngest is the female version of that child...quite a handful.
As for Will Smith...I saw Pursuit of Happyness over the Christmas break and it was excellent but definitely not a "feel good" movie...there were points were I could barely look at the screen for my discomfort and relating to how real the movie was...sad but true. His son is ADORABLE!
Glad you are keeping TKO alive...I think we have all hit some big hurdles/bumps etc

My boys saw Pursuit of Happiness & said they loved it & I MUST see it. I know that I will feel the same discomfort you did 2much & just not be able to to watch.
How about books? Anyone have any good suggestions? Here's my list of the latest books I've read & liked.
John Irving - When I Find You
Tracy Chevalier - Girl With the Pearl Earring. I like all her books.
Michael Connelly - The Closers
Phillip Margolin - Lostlake this one has infidelity in it
The Fingersmith - written by a British woman, the name escapes me.
Anne Tyler - I like all her books.
How nice for you & your W BigK. I hope you enjoy yourselves here. Despite its contrived nature I really like Disney World. You're going to Washington D.C.? If so, you just might see the cherry blossoms. The weather here has been warm & some spring blooming trees are already blooming.

If FWSs knew what was lurking in the minds and hearts of their BSs most of the time they'd never sleep unarmed. <~~~ Noodle I so love that signature.

nams-
Judith Michael writes wonderful books, IMO. I can't think of the title of one right now, but the follow up to it is called A Tangled Web . Both books are fabulous.
I love to read but I don't really have a favorite author. I like Fern Michaels as well.
Nicholas Sparks writes awesome books, but beware, they are ALL tear jerkers!
I read too many to keep up with.
