I actually only watched it because my husband wanted to, but I enjoyed it.
We are all doing really well. We moved, had a baby, Justin upgraded his job, and Mom is improving (slowly).
I hope you enjoy the movie!

Holly! I was just thinking about you the other day...my mom enjoyed getting a letter from your mom, and then I had to go look for your latest baby pictures, and yeah. Anyway. How's everyone doing?

I actually haven't seen Papillion...I think it falls in that '60s-'80s dead spot in my movie knowledge, which I'm working to correct, but slowly. ;) I'll have to put it on my rental list, especially since I'm learning to really like Steve McQueen (I saw The Great Escape last month; have you seen that?). And I don't really dislike Lewis, he just doesn't appeal to me as much as a lot of other comedians. I'm glad you like him, and you're in good company. I hear he's particularly popular among the French for some reason...

I watched a movie recently of which I'd like to know what you think. "Papillion" has Dustin Hoffman and Steve McQueen; you've probably heard of it and possibly watched it, but it sometimes surprises me what you've heard of and not watched. I think you'd probably enjoy it at least as much as some of the movies you just critiqued and likely more than some. :0)
I enjoyed your critiques. I agreed with most (of the ones I've seen) and got interested in some movies I hadn't thought about.
By the way, I do like Jerry Lewis. He makes me laugh, and, frankly, there are very few comedians that can do that.
