I am NOT a critic. I'm merely an observer. (Books, movies, plays, musicals etc.)

Disclaimer:  These are just my observations as an ordinary televiewer.  Nobody paid me to say these things.  I also updated this by removing some of the stuff I copy -pasted because they "sounded" weird. 😊 Random musings Thank goodness, our stories have evolved from being  baduy  to becoming world class.  A lot of our stories have been retold or dubbed and showed in other countries, appreciated by hundreds of thousands of viewers or millions even.  They shoot on location, and the actors even have seminars and workshops so that they would be able to portray their roles as real as real could be.  You could say that we  have gone a long, long way from being trapped in studio lots(hey, our studio lots are not like Universal Studios and the like), et cetera .   Whenever I have the time or whenever I need some "noise" while I research or write something, I watch and/or just listen to the dear old telly.   More often than not, I watch our local soaps o

While hanging with pals Eric (Kevin Connolly), Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) and Johnny Drama (Kevin Dillon), movie star Vince Chase (Adrian Grenier) gets a phone call from Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven), his former agent, who now runs a major studio.

It will be complicated, but rejoice in the complications.”  ― Nora Ephron quotes about life and love. Sleepless in Seattle is a 1993 American comedy-drama film about a recently widowed man's son who calls a radio talk-show in an attempt to find his father a partner.-Wiki Quotes No matter how much you watch a movie, there are new things you notice when you watch it again.  I have watched this movie countless times already.  Our situations are not the same, but somehow the story really touches my soul. Today, I noticed the bit players' other lines that I never noticed, rather, heard before.  I heard them before, I'm sure, but maybe in one ear and out the other. I even appreciated Becky(Rosie O'Donnel), Annie's best friend more. Sigh. I am just feeling a bit morose today and somehow this movie is helping to lighten up my mood. “Abo
