MOVIES

My favorite movie of 2010 has to be Alice in Wonderland.  I liked it a lot as it brought me back many years to when I was a little girl, when I would read this classic story.  Once upon a time it was one of my favorites.  Sometimes when popular stories are modernized they can be a little distorted, but all of the characters lived up to their craziness and the cinematography of this modern day version of Alice in Wonderland for me was really great.  I have seen Alice in Wonderland at the movie theatre when it was released in 2010.

My all time favorite movie without a doubt is The Sound of Music.  I remember after watching it on television as a little girl, it really sent me into a world of elatedness.    The Sound of Music is a happy musical movie with many morals taught and wonderful lyrics within every song that is sung.  I bragged about it for so long that my mother finally bought for myself and my siblings and cousins, so that we could watch it on videocassette.  We would watch it over and over again, until we were able to master each part played in the movie.  To this day I still play it on my laptop when I am feeling a little sad.  This is so cute – As a child and even to this day when I am feeling sad, my mum will remind me of the song from the movie – favorite things.  In case you are reading mum; you are one of my favorite things!!!  The words to the song go something like this – “WHEN THE DOG BITS, WHEN THE BEE STINGS, WHEN I’M FEELING SAD, I SIMPLY REMEMBER MY FAVORITE THINGS, AND THEN I DON’T FEEL SOOOOO BAD!”   In my opinion, The Sound of Music is the best movie ever.  J  Gotta love it.

  3. I missed The Sound of Music when it opened in the theaters eons ago, because I had chicken pox. I did see it eventually, and yes, gotta love it.
