Dear Zachary

Cut to the chase.. Found this movie on Netflix and it seemed to be highly rated so I cued it up. I had read the synopsis so I knew what it was about and it exceeded my expectations. I laughed and cried and cried some more. Absolutely heart wrenching and it really touched me in a way that can only be understood by my husband. This movie will stay in my thoughts for a long while

Paranormal Activity

So my brother and I are talking and he tells me about this movie *Paranormal Activity* He said it was very scary and good. Knowing he is a no nonsense 30 year old law student I was intrigued that something would scare him.

Off we go to the theater and one of my daughters calls to say she just saw it and it isn't scary. Great! So now I am kind of not sure what to expect. I went with my husband, another of my daughters and her boyfriend.

I really enjoyed it for several reasons. One- I was scared! Two-I enjoyed the simplicity of something like noises in the night being terrifying. Three- I think it is something that could happen.

There are 2 endings to the film. The one shown in theaters and suggested by Steven Spielberg is the one I prefer. I watched the *alternate* or original ending and although I understood the concept and idea I didn't care for the acting I guess. I don't know what it was about it.

If you liked the Blair Witch Project you might enjoy this.

You Tube Picks

I am pretty much a You Tube freak! After watching Beowulf this past weekend I was fascinated with the whole movie but especially the music. I found this version of *A Hero Comes Home* sung by a fan. Hauntingly beautiful.....

Weekend Movie Review

We rented 4 movies this weekend.

No Country For Old Men ~ This scared the crap out of me but I loved it. The ending was not the typical Hollywood movie ending so I had to ponder it. Mr. Keys actually liked it which is a surprise because he is so picky.

High School Musical ~ Loved it! Reminded me of Grease and I thought it was cute.

National Treasure 2 Book of Secrets ~ So So- Pretty much a repeat of the first one.

PS I Love You ~ I am about 1/2 way through it. Haven't formed an opinion yet.
