So rest comfortably, your award was not passed around. <BR/><BR/>I totally agree with you about Meryl Streep, she's the best. I heard an interview where she said that she carefully reviews each role offered and only accepts the film projects that she supports. What integrity...and she's great in any film including Cynthia Pittmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12656761837022197235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11026109.post-69291701429922990142009-03-06T14:35:00.000+01:002009-03-06T14:35:00.000+01:00laurie - I wish we could sit face to face and disc...laurie - I wish we could sit face to face and discuss the points made by the film, because I felt a lot of points were made about imperialism and the like. <BR/><BR/>As regards ankle length skirts - I do have a few modern style ones that I wear with boots but the sort of thing that I have almost bought countless times and then shied away from at the last minute are to be found on this site here:<French Fancy...https://www.blogger.com/profile/04941577892849157015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11026109.post-64452095285018089292009-03-06T14:13:00.000+01:002009-03-06T14:13:00.000+01:00i like meryl streep, too. we watched "out of afric...i like meryl streep, too. we watched "out of africa" again a few months ago, the first time I'd seen it since it came out. it's a very lush movie, and you're right, she does glow. the clothes are great, the scenery is great. my problem with it is that it didn't really have much of a point---and i didn't like the robert redford character, but then i don't much like robert redford. he's all the lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18055442432266567561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11026109.post-66595601942338838752009-03-06T14:08:00.000+01:002009-03-06T14:08:00.000+01:00Hurrah - link to this 'bad' film list is now added...Hurrah - link to this 'bad' film list is now added.
