Being polite and grateful will make people more inclined to help you. And if people are willing to help you, you may accidentally get something you want. – Jason Sudeikis (IMDb) I have literally watched We’re The Millers about a dozen times, and I would probably watch it again when it comes back on HBO. There is a great chemistry between Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Aniston that shines brightly in their movies.

A.S. + D.B. = Movie Magic
Some actors and actresses can make multiple movies together and they have wonderful chemistry. That’s what I call “movie magic”! Photo Credit: PopSugar I was never a big fan of Adam Sandler’s early years, but he gained me as a fan when he teamed up with the adorable Drew Barrymore. And even though they have only made three movies together, their chemistry is undeniably wonderful. They first teamed together in The Wedding Singer. Then again in 50 First Dates.

All Grown Up
I often watch movies and think of the actors or actresses, “They are the same age as me.” Then I think about other movies I’ve seen them in and realize that the movie I’m thinking of is 20-something years old… And that makes me feel old.

I remember him as the tough Boston kid who played opposite his best friend, Matt Damon, in the award-winning movie Good Will Hunting. It got me to thinking […]
Remembering Great Talent
I forgot how beautiful Whitney Houston’s voice was until I turned on the TV and watched her in Sparkle, her last acting role before her tragic death. Even though this movie is a couple of years old, seeing Whitney Houston brought a smile to my face and a tear to my eye. She played an over-protective mother of aspiring singer-songwriter Sparkle (played by American Idol winner Jordin Sparks). Sparkle forms a trio with her sisters, Sister Williams (played by Carmen Ejogo) and Delores Williams (played by Tika Sumpter). This movie was to have been Whitney Houston’s acting comeback, as she […]
The Most Fascinating People of 2013
I have always loved to watch Barbara Walter’s special, “The 10 Most Fascinating People”, eager to see who she and her team have deemed to be “fascinating” that year. Her final special aired on Wednesday, December 18th, and she recapped every fascinating person she interviewed for this yearly special. So in keeping with the long tradition once held by the woman I admire (and wanted to be like), here is my list of fascinating people of 2013. Pope Francis – since his ascension to the highest post in the Catholic Church, Pope Francis has literally touched e loves of hundreds […]
