Thursday Thirteen



Thirteen Things about Naomi



This week I decided to do 13 of my most enjoyable or memorable movies.

1…. Gone with the wind.

Love love love this movie. Don't really like Scarlett that much or Melanie she is WAY too good for my liking. But LOVED Rhett. But him and Scarlett were so bad for each other.


2. Girls just want to have fun.
This was my fave as a teen. I knew all the words. All the dance steps and watched it faithfully at least once a week.
3. The sound of music. I watched this every year on telly with my Nanny. But only found out as an adult how the movie really ended. She sent me to bed after the family sang at the concert. I remember as an adult watching it and getting the biggest shock as I watched them be chased by Nazi's and leave the country over the mountains. LOL.
4. Fame.Another movie that I could have watched at least once a week and probably did. Knew all the songs. In fact I sang one of the songs for my HSC in music and did very well.(If I do say so myself)
5. Beaches. Now I have seen this movie a lot and it still touches me every time. So so sad.
6. Miss Potter. If you get the chance to see this one. I accidentally flicked it on one night and just fell in love. It is like movies should be. Innocent. Enjoyable. Lovely.
7. Center Stage Some absolutely fantastic dancing in this one. Have seen this one a lot too.

8. Steel Magnolias. Sally Field was so great in this one. I love her acting.
9. Bring it on.A family favourite. My hubby knows all the words and even some of the dance steps which just cracks me up.

10. The Princess Bride. A cult classic and if you haven't seen it you will love it. My kids adore it.
11. Pretty Woman.
12. Fried Green tomatoes.
13. Anything with Anne Hathaway in. I think she is great and does some really lovely work. Princess Diaries and the Cinderella one were great movies.

I loved Pretty Woman and Gone With the Wind.

Did you watch everyone of those movies in one weekend? I couldn't stand sitting that long!
