Tuesday Movie: Million Dollar Baby

This is the second time I've selected a Clint Eastwood film for my Tuesday movie.  I guess I like Clint's movies.  There are several reasons to love this film. For one, it's got Morgan Freeman who I would pay to read the phone book.  He just oozes integrity in every role he's in. Hillary Swank is phenomenal as Maggie the boxer and who doesn't love a good boxing movie?  Rocky, Cinderella Man, The Fighter, etc...

I don't want to give the plot away if you haven't seen it, but I totally recommend it.  My husband gave me a signed script from this film, which is kinda cool. I used to write screenplays and he knew this movie was one of my faves.
Well, you already know that if a movie appears on this blog, there's at least one death in the film.  So, there's your spoiler.  Have Kleenex next to your popcorn and enjoy!

Tuesday Movie: Hereafter

I loved this movie and I wished I'd seen it in the theater, instead of on my pathetic excuse for a television.  Clint Eastwood directs and Matt Damon stars in this film that is all about death and as the name suggests, the hereafter.  Yeah, it's a little on the "woo woo" side, but I tend to go for that kind of stuff.  I've met many a psychic in my years and yeah, some of them are full of generalities (among other things), but I've met a select few who have been super spot on and specific.

My uncle is psychic and Matt Damon's character reminded me of his story.  Both my uncle and Matt Damon's character view their gift as a curse.  While there are many who are desperate to know their future and seek out psychics, there are those that are repelled by those who can "see" things.

So, have you seen it?  Do you believe in the ability to predict the future?  How about fate?  Have you ever met someone and felt like you knew them?
