Remember the Titans. Watched it a couple of weeks ago with my dad. I am so not a football fan, it isn't funny, but this was a terrific movie that just happened to be about football players.
Good evening Connie!!
*HUGS*
Thanks for the wonderful tribute to our Troops!!
Hope all is well!!
Absolutly LOVED that movie! One of the better ones I've seen.
Hugz back!
I am good. About ready to hit the sack.
United 93 was intense and brought back a bunch of feelings that needed bringing back out for me.
Welcome to the Canteen flyingtabby!!
If you haven't seen United 93, see it!
Thanks for sharing *World Trade Center* with all of our Troops.
I enjoyed that movie as well. I also enjoyed "Gridiron Gang" that stars the Rock.
Longtime no see! Great to see you in the Canteen!!
Hope all is well!
Cars.
You can't go to sleep! The night is young.
I completely agree about United 93.

SYNOPSIS:
"Moshe (Shalom Rand) and Mali (Michal Bat Sheva Rand) are a poor and barren Orthodox couple living in a religious neighbourhood of Jerusalem. On the Jewish Holy day of Succoth (a reminder of the temporary wood dwellings used by Jews during the Exodus) they receive unexpected guests: two escaped convicts, one a friend of Moshe's from his shady secular past, the other his cellmate (Shaul Mizrahi, Ilan Ganani). Moshe and Mali believe that their guests were sent to them by God as a test of faith. A real tough test."
This is the best foreign film I've seen in ages. It binds the Abraham/Sarah theme with the holiday of Succoth, so pertinent to the faith we need in these times of Islamo/Ishmael facism. All people of faith must see this movie.
I loved that movie!! Welcome to the Canteen Paladin2!!
Thanks for sharing your movie choice with our Troops.
By the way, Larry The Cable Guy really made the movie!!
Do DVD/home viewings count? If so, the first movie that comes to mind is "Crash" (no, NOT the one with James Spader). This is the only movie that has ever made me get up and start walking out of my own home theater (you know the scene I'm talking about if you've seen the movie). It was THAT intense. I don't want to give too much away so I'll leave it at that.
All is well sweetie! Hope the same for you. United 93 is in my DVD player now. I need to finally watch it. *Hugs*
Ah, but I must...
I have to be up at the butt-crack of dawn.
Best movie I've ever seen is Casablanca and I watch it every year.
Just skip tomorrow at work. You can do it! LOL!
Aww...the classics!!!
Can't go wrong with Casablanca!!
*HUGS*
You working tonight?
Wow!! Gotta check that movie out! Welcome to the Canteen OhioInfidel! It's great to have you with us!!
Thanks for posing the link as well.
When the DVD is out, I'll be sending a copy to one of the Stryker groups. They apparently enjoy receiving recently released DVDs.
Sadly there is some harsh language and a couple of mature situations, making it inaccessible to younger family members. My granddaughters can't see this for 10 or 15 years but would probably love the story sooner. But the script is great, the acting is wonderful, and I believe the directors did a fabulous job. One recognizes familiar devices used just a bit differently or somewhat better than before throughout the flick. Think of the doting grandfather, the insufferable father, the child with big dreams, and many more. They are all presented with a different twist. Loved it!
Welcome to the Canteen RedCell!!
Thanks for sharing your opinion with all of our Troops. I'm going to have to check that DVD.
