...to swoon over movie stars...
My first movie star crush was Clark Gable, with Leslie Howard right behind. Yes, I loved "Gone With the Wind." Time went by and Dennis Quaid and Kevin Costner were favorites. But in the last few years I had no favorite movie star. It was a wasteland for me and movie star romance. But I've got a new movie star honey. It started slowly years ago with....
...this wonderful version of "Pride and Prejudice."
And I lost my heart totally this afternoon at an unlikely movie, "Tailor, Tinker, Soldier, Spy."
Colin Firth
There wasn't a scrap of romance in the movie, in fact it was the epitome of anti-romance, but it had some of the best acting I've ever seen, with a great cast and an absorbing story and Colin Firth. I'd been told that it would be hard to follow the movie, and it did take concentration, but it was a wonderful afternoon, and I've got a new movie sweetheart. I'm sure I share him with millions of other women, but it's nice to know that even at 60-plus I can still fall in love at the movies.
Does anyone else have a movie sweetheart? I'd love to know who your movie sweethearts were growing up. Any Clark Gable fans here?
Wishing you a sweetheart of a week!
