[Immediately FREE] Wholesome Weekend Date Movie (May 27, 2016)

I'm pretty sick and stuck in bed right now, but still wanted to recommend a date movie and fortunately this one doesn't take long to review. 

Besides having my "requirements" it is also CHARMING  and very FUNNY.  I just watched this movie again and had forgotten how wonderful this film was. This is as great as romantic comedies get and truly equally for MEN and WOMEN. So enjoy your weekend and have a good laugh and time watching Father Goose with Cary Grant.

[Immediately FREE] Wholesome Weekend Date Movie (May 6, 2016)

Almost everyone knows about the Cary Grant/Deborah Kerr film, "An Affair to Remember", but did you know it's actually a remake of a film simply called, "Love Affair" from a generation earlier. And it's my pick of the week for the "Wholesome Date Movie".

There is something so much more lasting, deep and appealing in this original version. I suppose that's why Hollywood keeps trying to either remake or capitalize on this story in some way.
 And even though it's the oldest version of the story (from 1939) it's actually the most realistic, due mostly to the superb acting by the main characters portrayed by Charles Boyer and Irene Dunne.

Charles Boyer & Irene Dunne

The story of a man and woman who are each being "kept" by their richer lovers find each other and fall in love during an ocean voyage home to New York. They know that for them to be together they need to find a way to make their own money, but more than that, they each feel the need to gain back their self-respect in order to have something of inner value to offer to each other.

Also, in this original version, they have not removed all references to God and actually show the two main characters praying together in the grandmother's small chapel. This only serves to deepen and enhance our understanding of the story, because you can't truly find love and redemption without God being involved in some way.

I've admitted I'm not the biggest fan of romantic movies, but this one got to me. I don't just recommend it for those who are newly dating, but even more for those who experiencing problems in their relationship and/or marriage. This story is all about second chances. You come away knowing that "love for a lifetime" not only exists, but is within the grasp of anyone who wants it enough. Even the fact that this one is entitled "LOVE Affair" because it's all about "LOVE", while the Cary Grant/Deborah Kerr version doesn't even have the word "Love" in the title. 

But make no mistake, even though this film actually has practical advice to make love last, it is not a trip to the Marriage Counsellor. It's still a witty, inspiring, often funny and beautifully told love story. As near to flawless as any film can be.

"As near to heaven as is earthly possible" (L-L)

So dim the lights and let this one take you to a wonderful place of peace and possibilities. Hopefully you will find a way to be sitting next to and sharing it with the person you love the most (or the person you want to love the most).

I recommend it to you with my prayers and my heart.

[Immediately FREE] Wholesome Weekend Date Movie (April 30, 2016)

Better a day late than not at all, eh?

Here's my movie recommendation for this weekend. As you know I'm trying to make this a weekly feature where I recommend a film that you can immediately watch for free that fits the following criteria:

LAURA-LEE's REQUIREMENTS :

This week I am recommending "Dark Journey" starring Vivien Leigh and Conrad Veidt. It's a World War spy thriller, but at the heart a really great love story about truth and the sacrifice involved in real love. I've also called it a "MUST SEE" film because it was that  good. 

So follow the LINKs over to YouTube and you can snuggle up with that person you love and watch it right away. I hope you enjoy it and don't forget to feel free to leave feedback and comments.

Sincerely, Laura-Lee

[Immediately FREE] Wholesome Weekend "Date" Movie

I'm not very  good at doing something on an absolutely routine basis, but I would really like to start a feature at this blog where I weekly recommend/highlight one film that I think would be a perfect DATE-NIGHT film to watch sometime during the weekend. 

When my Mom was still alive and I would leave a film to go to the washroom or get something to eat, I'd return to ask, 
"So, what did I miss?"

Mom would jokingly answer,
"Well, they have yet to have the big car chase where they overturn the vegetable cart, they haven't done much 'suck face' and they haven't  'done the nasty'  either."

Those were her three big hates in every film. She found those elements cheap catering to the lowest common denominator.
I've discovered most people agree with her and watch a film in spite of those things, but consider them a waste of time. (Both Christians AND Non-Christians)

So we continue to search in hope for that good film without the gross out violence, graphic sex and constant swearing. that doesn't make you want to yell at the screen.
"Common, common. Let's get back to the story'!"

Here's the list of things I will be looking for in the films I recommend:

LAURA-LEE's REQUIREMENTS :

• Good Story
• Appeals to BOTH Men & Women
• Funny
• Witty
• Good acting
• Plot Twist
• Evokes "warm fuzzies"
• Motivates snuggling
• No Graphic Sex, Violence or Swearing
• Leaves you with good feelings/thoughts
• Available somewhere on the Internet for FREE (so you can watch it Immediately)

For my FIRST pick:

"Count Three and Pray" (FREE at YouTube)

Joanne Woodward & Van Heflin

Starring Van Heflin, Joanne Woodward (in one of her very first film roles) and Raymond Burr.
It's technically classified as a "Western" but now-a-days we would call it  a "Romantic-Comedy".

It revolves around a man returning to his small, hometown from fighting the American Civil war, but he fought for the North while most of his town fought for the South.

Before he left for war he was known as the local "hell- raiser", but during the war he "saw the light" and became a Preacher. He goes back home to rebuild the church that was burned down during the war and take over as the "New preacher." 

In the Parsonage (the house next to the church where the Minister lives) he discovers Joanne Woodward has taken up residence with "squatters rights".
Let the fun and fighting begin. And not  just between the wonderful two lead actors. This new Preacher discovers that old habits are hard to break AND winning over a town when you are considered a "Traitor" is not an easy task either.

Enough of my blabbing. 
Follow the main Link to YouTube (Count Three and Pray) to watch the entire film for Free right now and if you want all the information about the film (and I mean ALL) click on it's  IMDb LINK: Count Three and Pray


It has all the things from my "required" list above and a heavy handed dose of laughter through the entire thing. And feel free to leave me a comment or some feedback here. (You know I love  to hear your opinion).

(I  love these old movie promo posters)

Hope you enjoy my first Recommendation of  "Count Three and Pray".

Have a great weekend.
Love Laura-Lee

My Complete Films Play List

Realized my Play List of Full Films I watch (and save) at YouTube is getting long and full of very good movies. So I thought I would "tidy" it up, add some comments, some ratings (see the amount of asterisks out of a possible 10) and then share them with you.

Although most are for adults they are still "safe" for viewing by your entire family and will be enjoyed by men & women alike.

Hope you enjoy them. There is something for every persons' tastes. From Romantic - Tear Jerkers to Thrillers.

Have a wonderful weekend and a Happy Sabbath as we approach tomorrow to focus on the Lord and leave all our worries in His big, capable, comforting, compassionate hands ... for at least one day.

Love Always; for my Friends. 
Sincerely, Laura-Lee
