I am tired. Life got in the way so let’s do random trivia.

Five favorite movies.

  1. Splendor in the Grass.  This movie is timeless.   It stars Natalie Wood and Warren Beatty.  When your Mom talks about how Warren Beatty was soo sexy and had sex with all the women, she was referring to this Warren Beatty.   it’s about first love, sexuality, mental illness, and class warfare set in pre-depression era Kansas.
  2. Shawshank Redeption Get busy living or get busy dying. Yeah, everybody knows this movie.
  3. Bring It On.   I am not ashamed. I love this cheerleader movie.  It also has a great message about cultural appropriation.  It’s also catchy as hell.

  5. Mary Poppins
