My New Favorite Movie Is....

*drumroll*




































August Rush!

Well, it isn't actually my ultimate favorite movie of all time (there are about three or four others that really top the list). However, it is certainly the best new movie I've seen in a long time. Of course, I love that it's about a modern-day mozart who tries to find his long-lost parents. It's a total feel good movie and has an amazing cast, including the absolutely adorable little boy from Finding Neverland. I definitely recommend it.

As for books, I've picked up Anna Karenina. It's kind of long. Take that back - it's hideously long, but it's a classic and I thought it was high time that I sucked it up and just read the darn thing. I'll let you know how terrible it is when I finish it in a year.

Jenn, I really think you would also like the movie "Once" you should check it out sometime.

I'm so impressed that you're tackling that long book, you'll have to tell me all about it. I usually determine if I'm reading a book based on the length, so I can confidently say I won't be reading this book, ha! Good luck with it! You can do it!

I tried to read Anna Karenina. I got about a quarter of the way through, then I just had to give up. I'm not one to quit what I start, but that book was just a little much for me...good luck!
