The Big Chill - Terrific ensemble cast (before it was in fashion...) It's always fun to tell people Kevin Costner is the dead guy. The music is wonderful and the story is fun. I especially love Willim Hurt's cokehead character and the pot sequence is genius. Glenn Close usually freaks me out, (you know what I mean... there's always the question is she a guy?) but her coked out bedroom scene is hysterical!
Check out "The Big Chill in 30 seconds, re- enacted by Bunnies"
Love Actually - Another fabulous ensemble flick with Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson, Liam Neeson, Laura Linney, Keira Knightley and my favorite, Bill Nighy. It's so tender and funny. I cry myself sick at the part where Emma Thompson's character finds out her hubby is unfaithful. Really hard to watch cause I think about how she KNEW what that was like since her scum bastard husband, Kenneth Branagh cheated on her after YEARS of marriage. ((shudder)) I adore the kid learning to play drums, (Drums are my life!) and the couple who act as stand-ins in porno films, hysterical everyday dialogue between them as they pretend to grind it out!
Bye, Bye Birdie - Major guilty pleasure here. I love this stuff!!! Ann- Margaret, Bobby Rydell, Dick Van Dyke, Janet Leigh, Paul Lynde and Maureen Stapleton. SO GOOD!
The telephone song...

And last but not least
And last but not least
Fargo - Heck anything by the Coen brothers is worth a watch, but this one is especially odd and wonderful. I love the pregnant cop SOOO much! The North Dakota accents are a scream. (Go Bears!) Stars William H. Macy, Frances McDormand and Steve Buscemi. Really what's not to love?

I loves me some Fargo, you betcha.
That bunny thing was hi-la-rious :)
Love Fargo too. And The Big Chill is excellent. I need to see that one again.
I rocked Bye, Bye Birdie back in my day. Heck yes gotta love little sixth grade plays.
The male half of the porno stand-in couple is Tim from The Office (british). I'm not sure why I'm informing you of this other than to say The Office Rocks!...and to continue eating my tamale.
Thank you and good day.
Aaah Racing With the Moon...so good.
