Waitress...



I don't normally take the time to comment on movies I've seen unless they have really touched me. I have had this on my "to watch" list for a while now and honestly forgot about watching it until my darling daughter called me today...to talk about it....she thought I had already seen it. Well, I have now...went and rented it tonight! I loved it...YES, it's quirky, its goofy at times...but it is a movie that really speaks about life....no matter who you are...it's about decisions...good and bad...about relationships...again good and bad...and well, it is just SAAAAWWWWEEET as the pies they make in it....so I am giving this a thumbs up for any of you that haven't seen it yet...go spend about $3.00 and I think you will enjoy a very sweet Indy film...that won't soon leave your heart or mind.

Now it may not be for all of you...but I love it because it is quirky, sad, funny, and all about Southern loyalty, craziness...and comfort from friends! Hey it's worth the money just to see Andy Griffith in it...what a true Southern Gentleman...he has a very sweet but ornery roll...one that has you loving him just as he should be!!...b/c as we all know...Andy could never REALLY be ornery!! Enjoy

I love Andy Griffith. If you want to know what a truely marvelous actor he is you need to see "Murder in Coweta County" with Johnny Cash. They are both so wonderful in it and Andy plays an evil evil man...I know,hard to believe! That's what I mean by wonderful actor.

I've been wanting to see this, too! I'm a fan of Nathan Fillion from back in his "Firefly" tv series days. Thanks for the recommendation...sounds like just the kind of movie I need to perk me up whenever I need perkin'! :)

I wanted to come home and bake pies SO badly after it though!

Thanks for letting me know about this movie! I'll have to rent it asap. I LOVE southern movies... I don't know how I missed this one.

Just stopped by to say hi. Thanks for your last comment. It kind of prodded me to get caught up in blogland. (Blog and I had to break up for a little bit) ...

Have a wonderful day!

I loved that movie, too. Andy Griffith was so great. Those quirky, indy-type films are my favorite. Another good one (if you don't mind some sadness in a film) is 'Tully'.

Many smiles and much happiness!

Love,
