Gotta love it.
Can’t wait to see “October Baby.”
Back when I was a kid and Dukes was still in prime time I saw him at a restaurant at Disney World. I summoned up the courage and (not understanding privacy at that age) approached his table for his autograph. I remember to this day how nice he was about it and even engaged me in some small talk.
Very down-to-earth guy back then, and now, it would appear.
Bump
And that was only because a local woman personally guaranteed the operator a thousand tickets would be sold and she would make up the difference if it didn't.
I don't know how that turned out but I would say there were about 50 people at the showing we went to.
And that was the 11:00 a.m. showing on a weekday.
Hopefully, she didn't have to shell out any money but at the very least I'm sure she has stored up treasures in heaven for herself.
Great movie. Go see it.
Saw it last week. It was a great movie.
But yet thats all they seem to have time for.......
Good post.
Enjoyable reading.
I loved this movie.
Gee and I would have though it was just because he can’t act.
I believe he’s involved in charity work for disabled children. One of our choir members back in Texas got to know him through benefits for ...whatever it was, exactly.
John is a GREAT actor.
What is the plot?
Oh, I see.
He was great in The Dukes of Hazzard and in Smallville.
Plot? October BAby is about a young lady who finds out accidentally (because she has a health crisis) that she is 1) adopted 2) survivor of a failed abortion 3)the surviving sister of a set of twins (brother died as a result of the abortion. The plot is about her attempts to find her birth mother and to put order in her own life and how this action affects those around her — adoptive parents, friends, birth mother, etc.
The plot is not really about abortion. That is just the vehicle through which this story is told. The story is really about growing up, love, forgiveness, helping those in need, caring for your neighbor, unforseen consequences of your actions, etc. It’s an unusual coming of age story.
