Hello all....... had a busy few days and not been online, my dad also loved all the old war films, and was a huge frank sinatra fan, I can`t here My Way to this day without welling up, it was always "his" song., I remember he loved the Road to.... films with Bob hope, and would cry with laughter, that and the saturday and sunday afternoon Cricket that used to be on every weekend in our house. Dad served in the 8th Army and was in Africa mainly durnig the War, he contracted Malarai and was lucky to survive, he died in 1981, I was only 19 and was before either me or my sister had married, I always feel sad that he never met his 4 grandchildren. |

Been watching Bridgett Jones Edge of reason, Renee Zelweger does a brilliant English accent. Colin Firth is ok but don't like that chinless wonder Hugh Grant...what do women see in him? I have friend who thinks he's wonderful. Just don't get it. |

Hi all,newbee here, just wanted to add fave film to this great thread. John Wayne in the Quiet Man is just the best, remember watching it in the 60's with my dear ole Mum on a rainy Saturday afternoon. She is no longer around to watch films with. Would give anything to "Watch with mother again". To those who have seen the film, "No patty fingers if you please". |

Hi Debbie and welcome to our thread, this must be the one that stars Maureen O'Hara as well I think. I remember my dad liking this one in particular and he wasn't the biggest John Wayne film fan, having said that he liked him in ' The Longest Day ' . He said it was a fabulous film and that Maureen O' Hara was lovely! My dad did have a thing about red heads!! I've never seen it, but would make a point of watching it if it's shown on telly again ( I'm sure it will.) |

Thanks for lovely welcome Pam. Has anyone else got little family sayings that originate from films you have watched together. heres one of ours. If anyone mentions cards/passes/credit cards in our house they are called moolt-tea-pass( say it quick its multi-pass with an accent), if you watched 5th Element with Bruce Willis you will get it. Many more but could waffle for ages. Anyone got any good ones? |
