Foul Play (1978)

This is one of my favorite Comedies of the 1970s. I still like to watch this every once in a while. Goldie Hawn is CLASSIC Goldie Hawn - running from the bad men and into the arms of cute Chevy Chase. This movie has so many interesting characters and also has a great story. Burgess Meredith is hilarious as her landlord with the pet Boa, Dudley Moore is great as a pervert, Billy Barty is such a riot. If you haven't seen this movie, it's pretty timeless and I think you will enjoy it...although you do have to put up with lots of Barry Manilow songs...

Fritz the Cat (1972)

This movie was actually one of the first X-rated Cartoons (of course now in this day and age, it's pretty tame - once you've seen one cartoon penis, I mean you've seen them all). It was portrayed as more of an art film and had a lot of political and racial issues of the times. It is actually a step back to 1972 (although I was just a very little girl at this time, I still remember the clothes and the trends). The art in this film is pretty cool it's also a lot of fun to hear the jive talk and learn all about Fritz the cool cat who just wants friends and to get high and for everyone to like him. This is definately different and very interesting.

Great Feel-Good Movie

Love Actually (2003)

This has to be one of my favorite Romantic Comedies. I have a tradition now, along with the 1951 Scrooge movie and It's a Wonderful Life, to watch this film at Christmas time every year. I just LOVE all the different stories, some make you giggle, some make you get a little teary eyed, some make you sigh because you hope someday that might be you...but it's a GREAT movie with lots of twists and turns and I love how they are all tied together. I just think it's a great movie about hope and change and happiness and familarity and betrayal. I would have given it more stars if I could.

Dirty, Dirty Shame

A Dirty Shame (2004)

If you are not a fan of John Waters movies, do NOT watch this movie. You have to be a true fan of his works to really get and appreciate this raunchy humor. I know that somethings were REALLY over the top and had a lot of adolescent jokes and giggles. Tracy Ullman's performance is as always hilarious and I think Selma Blair shows a lot of her comedic side. Of course Johnny Knoxville is his same old jack-ass sexual deviant self, but all in all it had some fun, dirty humor that really says DON'T TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY, JUST HAVE FUN. So every time I see a "holier-than-thou" person talking about how wrong sex is or sex education or the EVILS of adultery...I just know in a few months they will be on the news - caught at a sex party with animals or something like that...
