So I've watched the green Mile on numerous occasions and obviously Tom hanks has done some quality films, I never tire of watching this film, and is quite a moving film, the same goes for ghost, and for my thriller choice it's got to be internal affairs with Richard Gere, comedy wise it's a fish called Wanda, and one that's full of humour, along with the seriousness of life is twin towns, any others I can possibly relate to I'll try and see if I've seen them, sorry nothing new or from the recent cinema listings as I don't get out much 😀

Leslie Nielsen. Airplane, a hilarious movie!! One of my favorites!!

Too many to list. I don’t know that I could pick one favorite.

Maybe Dirty Harry (Clint Eastwood) or one of his spaghetti westerns 👍

Love Clint Eastwood in any Western especially Pale Rider. Also love all the Raiders of the Lost Ark films or anything with Harrison Ford in.

My fave film is very sad - The Towering Inferno with Paul Newman, Steve McQueen and many other famous names too. Even Fred Astaire is in it!

2 fairly unknown cult films have probably been the most memorable. The Telephone box which gave me the chills. And A Question of Silence. I saw it many years ago at Uni. The men all came out scratching their heads while us women were saying OMG. Made me think a lot.

If you want to know more about a Question of Silence just ask. Its a film all women have to see.

Pale Rider was great! I thought it was similar to High Plains Drifter. I love them all!

That reminds me of The Poseidon Adventure with so many big names in it 😊

I saw that one too many years ago. It is sad to me too. Have You Ever Seen The Poseidon Adventure? Almost like the Towering Inferno and it had many stars in it back in the day and the sadness factor too. The part where the woman swims to try to help the group really gets to me.

Love that film too. Shelly Winters played the swimmer. In the film she had a heart attack just after and died.

Hi CB. My favorite...hummmm not sure probably The Shaw Shank Redemption. Looking forward to seeing the new Joker movie with Lady GaGa. I just love her and all her weirdness. Saw Beetlejuice Beetlejuice but didn't care much for the ending. How are you feeling lately?

Yes loved that film as well, yes unfortunately still going through a difficult process with the hospital, I had another scan last week, but the pump that's used for administrating the dye via an injection failed to work properly and now need that done again, and now have to also do another 24 hour urine collection as there's a stress level marker showing its not quite right, so I'm hoping I can get some results soon, as I've had nothing back because of the delay, thanks for asking and hope you're doing OK?

Yes. I'm doing OK. My medication has been working terrific. I'm currently on Prozac 20 mg. and 10 mg. of Abilify as a booster. I used to be on Pristiq 100 mg but it stopped working awhile ago. I should have made the medication changed a lot sooner I might have saved me a four-year battle in a depressive episode if I had done that but when you aren't thinking correctly and can't find the gumption to do anything if you are having issues it's quite hard to do the work behind getting a medication change you know what I mean. Things are going alright with my job so far so good. I'm having fun decorating my new house just so which is quite cool. My husband and I sometimes do though have battles because he doesn't clean up after himself all the time LOL I don't know whether it's just the guy thing or I'm being a nag maybe a little of both LOL. So sorry to hear that you have to do those tests all over again that's quite a shame and I'm sure it's painful having to do them over and over again I hope they find something definitive soon so you can start working to feel better. Wishing you well soon as well as peace and well-being.

My husband's mother got him a headlight for Christmas so he could fix the plumbing one year. She was just a peach. The devil herself actually.
