The Winter’s Bone

John Hawkes is hands down one of the best actors. He is so underrated. I spent the entire movie waiting for scenes with him in it. He was terrifying as the volatile uncle and was the best part of the movie. The movie was very slow and I disliked it as I was watching but its growing on me and I am beginning to appreciate it more. The movie was actually very good but it was just slow as molasses. If you have time, I suggest checking it out. I give this movie 4 stars out of 5.
Let me know what you thought about the movie and your favorite part.

RIP Elizabeth Taylor

I have always been in awe of this woman. She was strong and independent and one of the most beautiful women in the world. The original Angelina Jolie. She stole more husbands that WWII and had no shame. I admired her acting and beauty and contributions to society.

I had previously posted this like two years ago and I could have redone it but this is how I felt always.

A star is gone.....

Doesn't she look classic? - Cher in Clueless

Recent fashion trends are lending themselves to be very girly and feminine. I think the floral motifs and dresses are very reminiscent of old school glamour like Liz Taylor and Audrey Hepburn. I love the saying, Whats old can become new again. I think thats another reason I never really like to part with my old clothes because I know that they can come back into style at some point. So in honor of the new trends I am posting pictures of one of the most beautiful actresses/women of her time...and any time. ELIZABETH TAYLOR......timeless, classic, effortless, beautiful...all traits I hope that I possess or can emulate....

also, it seems the most handsome men were from that classic old school hollywood era as well...i might sneak in a few pics of my favorites.

loving you minnie riperton

Terrified.....

The devastation in Japan is horrendous. I tried to avoid knowledge of the situation out of fear but I couldn't ignore it any longer. I am horrified by the loss and destruction. I am terrified that such a terrible event has occurred. The world is forever changed. I need to find out how I can help.

I know I can start by donating but what more can be done?

Officially....

EPIC

Losing hope

I didnt want to say anything because I still had hope, but my little Prince is gone. She went missing last week. I was hoping for her safe return but she is gone. I miss my little ray of sunshine terribly.

THE TEXAS THEATRE

I have lived my entire life in Dallas, Texas. I have lived over half of it in Oak Cliff, Tx. Texas Theatre has always been in the background of my scenery and its only walking distance for me now. I never paid much attention to the run down theatre until it reopened very recently. It has a very rich history. Howard Hughes once owned the Texas Theatre. Lee Harvey Oswald was found there after he “allegedly” shot President John F. Kennedy. The history of this place is just awesome.

You can even watch a movie in the same spot (the actual chair was removed and the chair that replaced it) that Oswald sat in, if you are into that sort of thing. It’s fifth seat from the aisle in the third to last row. Note to self: Take a picture in that seat next time you go.

I’ve had the pleasure of going to The Texas Theatre twice now and I must say I enjoyed myself very much. It is a quaint little place with an easy charm that you can easily fall in love with. A record player streams albums while you wait for the movie to begin and sip your wine. The selection is small but it’s a work in progress and I like that about it. I do recommend cup holders but I can understand because the seats are vintage. I’ve seen two amazing films there in the past two months. I can’t wait to tell you all about them but that will have to wait for later.
Have you been to The Texas Theater yet?

Things I Miss
