[Immediately FREE] Wholesome Weekend Date Movie (Nov. 11, 2016)

Deborah Kerr  "makes time" with Trevor Howard

This week is a unique "little" film that I had never previously heard about until it was recommended to me by YouTube. 
I had no idea that a movie could so perfectly blend the elements of humor and suspense. But what is best about this movie is the captivating and stellar performance by Deborah Kerr in "I See a Dark Stranger" (1946).

She plays a young, Irish woman who decides to "sign up" in the IRA because she grew up hearing several  [ tall ] tales about her late father defeating the English almost single-handedly.

"But he is ENGLISH ! "

She leaves her small town, arrives in Dublin and ends up joining a group that is definitely against the English. But through her naivete, a series of ridiculous blunders and bad circumstances, it's actually a nest of German spies she's tumbled into and not the IRA at all. By the time she realizes what is really going on, she is up to her neck in trouble with only Trevor Howard to help her. The problem with that is  ... he is English! [GASP]

This is another story that will appeal to BOTH men and women, but this week you won't need any tissues to wipe away your tears. You'll be constantly swinging between laughing and gripping tightly to your chair (or preferably the person next to you).

NOTE:  [Once again] I caution you that lack of "graphic" scenes does not necessarily mean "safe for younger children". I'm also going to remind you to take an occasional breath while viewing this tense movie  (so you can't sue me later for not warning you adequately).

I don't have to "hope you enjoy this film" because I'm sure you will. But I always hope a good story will somehow enhance your date and your weekend.

Sincerely,  Laura-Lee

[Immediately FREE] Wholesome Weekend Date Movie (Nov. 4, 2016)

This weekend I am back to my more regular format, but what I will do that is still a bit different is recommend two different versions of the same story.

It's called, "Of Mice and Men" and is based on the classic book of the same name written by John Steinbeck.

BOOK COVER

Directly below are the LINKS to the original 1939 version, which in my opinion is the best and also the LINK to the 1992 version, which is also extremely well made. 

"Of Mice and Men" 1939 Version

Burgess Meredith, Lon Chaney Jr.

Burgess Meredith & Lon Chaney Jr.

"Of Mice and Men" 1992 Version

Gary Sinise (Director/Actor), John Malkovich

Gary Sinise & John Malkovich

One of the things I like to encourage people who are dating to do is actually TALK to each other. So after you have seen both versions of this film, it might be interesting to discuss (not argue) about which one each of you liked the best.

Whether it's the book or a film version, this is a classic example of a story that has it ALL. What I like the most about it is it's universal themes: We all need to keep our dreams alive, we need to feel valued, our basic need to be loved unconditionally, friendship, compassion, sacrifice, and on and on.

Also, this story appeals equally to men and women. It's the ultimate  "buddy" film, but women will also find much, much to relate to as well. But it does have a few sad moments so men might have to remember the phrase, 
"I'm not crying. I've just got something in my eye."

However, [to the men] while your girlfriend/spouse is crying you will have the opportunity to do a lot of  'comforting' and demonstrate how 'sensitive' you are.
    So it's all good!


Thanks for stopping in again and I hope you all have a great weekend.

Sincerely, Laura-Lee
