Tell us about a movie that you are passionate about.
I suppose the same as my guilty pleassure!
What is a movie you vow to never watch? Why?
Absolutely, The Godfather, I detest violence.. Hubs took me to it while he was in the army in Germany. we watched it in a theater on base with all enlisted men.. It was so full we had to sit on the front row.
I was most unhappy!
Tell us about a movie that literally left you speechless.
OH, I just thought of one I loved, a more recent film.. The Railway Man...It was pretty hard for me to watch, but the ending is sublime... I loved that film!!!

North and South, the British version!
Who is an actor you always watch, no matter how crappy the movie?
Gerard Butler, I just sat through Attila, the Hun, for the same reason.. I just loved him in Phantom of the Opera...
Who is an actor you don’t get the appeal for? Why don’t you like them?
Tom Cruise, Kevin Spacey, Daniel Day Lewis
just because I really do not know maybe the parts they play.. the allure is lost on me.
Who is an actor, living or dead, you’d love to meet? Why do they intrigue you?
I would love to meet
Gerard Butler.. He is Scottish and I have a thing for Celts!
Sexiest actor/actress you’ve seen. (Picture requested!)
You are casting a movie, pick four or five actors you’d hire to be in it and why we’d love them together.
Make of LYnn Kurland's A Dance Through Time not to be confused with Outlander.

Have you ever watched movies from a decade that was before you were born? If so, which decade is your favorite?
I do love historic films.. NOt partial to any period... I loved black and white films produced in the 30s' and 40's those old gothic movies like Rebecca. So many I cannot name!

If you were to be in a movie would you rather play the hero, villain or anti-hero? Why?.
I would gladly trade parts with Miss Winslet. But alas, the part is much more suited to her... I would be cast as the old witch of the glen.. and be happy because the hero really liked her for her healing qualities!
