unsuccessfully so far. It’s hard to write, work, think.

On Wednesday, I hear tell there will be a review posted of Pushing Her Boundaries. I’m told it’s a good review. Can’t wait to read it!

    Lots of good movies!

  2. Anne Bancroft was so wonderful in the Graduate, and she was only 38 when she played the ultimate Cougar.
    What a great list of movies! Entertaining people is a wonderful way to have impact on the world. Please start writing a little something and entertain yourself…

  3. I’ve not seen any of these films…Congrats on the coming review….Hope you feel better…

  4. My favorite movie is Mr Blandings Builds his Dream House for Cary Grant and a few lines. Based on a book by PG Wodehouse but the movie is better.

  5. These are great movies, ladies. If you ever get a chance, Savannah, pick one up, and thanks!

  6. Steph - you know I should have included every single Hitchcock thriller. Especially North By Northwest and Dial M for Murder!
