It is not on Hulu, Netflix, Youtube, Crackle or Snagfilms, It is on Amazon Prime but I'd have to pay...so I'm still waiting...Elizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-79286088633426116142015-09-26T15:41:17.432-04:002015-09-26T15:41:17.432-04:00Hey, when are you going to watch this movie??

The ones who hated it were very similar in tone to the comment left on your blog recently...so sad.<br /><br />Will you come back to this post and tell me what you thought after you watch it? I bookmarked this page and will check periodically for your comments.Grace to Youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02762614330823622639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-64557214785209339402015-08-09T19:50:48.763-04:002015-08-09T19:50:48.763-04:00Grace To You, thank you for asking.

I (carefully) managed to change the sheets, cook, do dishes, laundry, and vacuum, very necessary and could not be put off any longer. I feel better that it's done.<br /><br />I have heard of that movie back-along but I'd forgotten about it. I chose not to watch is when it came out because 911 was still too raw, but now I will put it in the queue and watch it. Thanks for the reminder, I believe it got good reviews when it came out.Elizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-17374575499823913312015-08-09T19:18:16.137-04:002015-08-09T19:18:16.137-04:00First, how's your back today?
Second, I just ...First, how's your back today?<br /><br />Second, I just watched a movie this afternoon that made me think of you....it was called Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. Have you heard of it? I hadn't. The story was bound to be moving since the events of 9-11 played a role, but what was really compelling was the main character, a boy of 9 at the beginning of the movie when he lost his dad. He had been tested for Aspergers with inconclusive results, but it seemed evident that he was on the spectrum. It was difficult to walk in his shoes for 2 hours, but I'm glad I did. If you've seen it, I'd love to know what you thought of it. <br /><br />[If you haven't, I should tell you there are several times the boy says things that sound like curse words but they're changed enough not to be, and once when he does quite clearly. I hate that, esp for a child actor, but considering the situation the character is dealing with and the fact that they don't claim to be Christians, it actually is probably tame compared to reality. You can screen it on pluggedin.com.]Grace to Youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02762614330823622639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-15815338023817549272015-08-08T21:58:04.525-04:002015-08-08T21:58:04.525-04:00MMM lobster rolls!

I overheard someone in a store here in NC recently talking about her relative who was going to pack halibut (that the relative had caught herself) on dry ice and send it down here. If I knew where that was going to be delivered I'd be tempted to intercept it and make myself a sandwich. :)<br /><br />Hope your back gets to feeling better!Grace to Youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02762614330823622639noreply@blogger.com
