Don't have time to elaborate right now, just go see it. It will only
be in theaters for another week or so.
If you're building an airplane, it will speak to you.

After you see the movie, you can read Burt Munro's letter to John
Andrews. It's much more interesting and much less romantic than the
movie.
Don't do any research until AFTER you see the movie, though.

And another thumbs up for "Second Hand Lions".
Any movie that starts out with a Stearman flying under
an overpass can't be all bad!

Great movie I watch it every time it's on.Too many good parts in it to get
bored.
That movie should have gotten an Oscar instead of tripe like Brokeback
Mountain.The title sounds like a professional wrestler's name.Should have been
called Sheepherders in Love .John Wayne and Roy Rogers are rolling in their
graves :-)
Just my opinion but I know what I like so please no flame war over this.I know
I'm insensitive and out of touch with my feminine side but that's how I like it
LOL!!
Another thumb's up for "Second Hand Lions"
See ya
Chuck (hell they ain't cowboys they're Sheep herders) S

Together, or separately? :-)
And you folks *do* realize a flying movie (or, at least, a movie that had flying
as part of its climax) won an Oscar this year, don't you?

Nope, and if there was a hint in there, it went right over my head! <g>
I'm afraid you might have to spell it out, for me to get it!

Don't know that I *have* a favorite type of movie. I went to "Good Night and
Good Luck" just about the same time I saw "Wallace and Gromit," and enjoyed both
in different ways. There *are* genres I don't care for, and I handle that by
not going to those movies.

[Movie musings]

Memoirs of a Geisha. <Click> Video to see the trailer.
(NAC) DC-3 and a few other WWII planes.
GREAT effort! Entertaining (very) ...and interesting.
A true Geisha does not love?
If you love, are you still Geisha?
A story about a Geisha, told by a Geisha
....in Geisha style - subtly crafted, like pleasing art! :-)
The runway scene (fashion - not airport) with the falling flower peddles,
did remind me a little of Flashdance (1983) <g>
This was a cool trailer we saw in the theater that night.

Well done, especially with LOUD movie sound!
(I like different... even if it's only a trailer)
Montblacklisted
"Capote" and "World's Fastest Indian" are on our short list.

Murder by Death (1976)
Starring: Truman Capote

I watched the trailer, and I loved it. I did see Chicken Run, and recall it
was a blast!
