After Weight Watchers yesterday, I completed a number of errands in the driving rain. Then, my long-awaited DVD of "Cabaret" finally having arrived on Wednesday, I sat down and watched it while Pat went to the bay.
That's one terrific movie! It was such fun to romp around pre-war Berlin, decadent and sinister though it was (or maybe because it was decadent and sinister), with Liza and her pals. After, I looked it up on the Internet and discovered it's thirty-five years old! Good lord, that crazy, adorable Sally Bowes (she'll always be Sally Bowles to me) is 61. Where does it go?
Had a nice beef stew simmering all day in the crockpot. Pat had several helpings and I enjoyed a modest amount, too.
Alison called and we discussed Thanksgiving. Yoicks, it's less than a week away--I'd better start planning and buying. She had some other big news (no, nobody's pregnant) that I won't mention until it comes to fruition--I fervently hope.
Think I'll list some of my favorite movies. Besides "Cabaret," They include, but are not limited to:
"Chinatown"
"Citizen Kane"
"Since You Went Away"
"The Godfather"
"The Godfather II"
"Paths of Glory"
Hmm...I know there are many others, but just don't recall them at the moment. Must get ready for my walk, so will leave this for now.
To all you multitudes who read this: Why not put down your favorites movies, too, either as comments here, or on your blog?
