Movie Weekend

I spent this weekend watching movies... lots and lots of movies.  On Saturday morning, I picked up five movies from Redbox and then taped 5 or 6 from TCM.  It was mostly to catch up on some recent movies I haven't seen and $6 for 5 movies is better than buying one movie from ondemand for $5.

I would have to say, my favorite of all of them that I watched was Midnight in Paris.  Owen Wilson's character feels that he should've been living in the 1920's in Paris.  I can totally empathize with those sentiments.  I often feel like I should've been living in a different area.

According to IMDB,
"Gil and Inez travel to Paris as a tag-along vacation on her parents' business trip. Gil is a successful Hollywood writer but is struggling on his first novel. He falls in love with the city and thinks they should move there after they get married, but Inez does not share his romantic notions of the city or the idea that the 1920s was the golden age. When Inez goes off dancing with her friends, Gil takes a walk at midnight and discovers what could be the ultimate source of inspiration for writing. Gil's daily walks at midnight in Paris could take him closer to the heart of the city but further from the woman he's about to marry."

I really loved it... probably one of my favorites.  Also, the movie had a great soundtrack.

And, it really made me want to go to Paris.  Way to good Woody Allen.  :)
