Movie lines I love:






There are women who reach a perfect time of life when the face will never again be as good, the body never as graceful, as powerful. It had happened that year to Julia.

-from Julia (1977), Lillian Hellman voice-over describing Julia

Vanessa Redgrave as Julia in Julia

At this point, I'm just hoping not to frighten little children nor fall on my face in the frozen food aisle. ;-)

Fireblossom~ Your comment is one of the funniest things I've read in awhile. Thank you for the laugh and for being here!

Really? Oh we do need a support group where we tell one another "You look swell," when past that specially fine moment. Haven't you had more than one?

Movie lines are good solution to need to light-blog...thanks.

naomi~ "When past that specially fine moment" is a great line and a great time for a support group. Thinking on this I may have had two moments like that...

"Light-blog" is a part of what I seem to need right now, or maybe all that I'm capable of today. Tomorrow, next week? Who knows. :)

I'm going to have to watch this again. I saw it years ago, but don't remember it. There was another movie that came out at the same time with which I always get it confused. Unfortunately, I can't recall what it is. Something about a ballet dancer?

Kat~ Hmmm. I am not sure what the ballet dancer movie might have been. In this previous post I wrote about why Julia was such a memorable film for me and why it remains one of my favorites.

Got it! "The Turning Point" with Ann Bancroft?

Lydia said...

Kat~ Ah-ha. Didn't see that one...and I really respect Ann Bancroft's acting...
