Love it
/guilty secret

It's one of my Christmas vacation go-tos.

That and True Lies

I love Dirty Dancing too, though, so my taste could be described as dubious at best.

I also love Goodmorning vietnam, Full Metal Jacket and A Fish called Wanda.

Well then I'll check it out.

Someone I never expected told me he thought Dirty Dancing was not bad, and I jokingly fell to the floor, pounding the carpet, saying "no.....no.....no." LOL

FMJ is one of my top ten.

You know what, I've not seen True Lies either. That's Jamie Lee, right?

I love The Bodyguard. I think it's a great movie.

Eclectic is good. I note movies in your list that might not be on my list, but I can see the appreciation of them.

Then again, I also like Love Actually (just posted about it recently and have watched it again since then) and Muriel's Wedding and Four Weddings and a Funeral.


So I've seen two recommendations for The Bodyguard, and I'm going to get it.

I hated what she did to The Star Spangled Banner. Gave me chills, not the good kind. You don't have to make the National Anthem "yours." You just have to sing it. And not screw up the words.

I loved that song, too. It was played constantly on VH1 back then and VH1 was constantly on at my house back in 87/88. I had to play it just now, and was surprised at how well I remember it, even now.

I still think that album was her best.

RIP, Whitney.
