I remember seeing that ...Grease is the word, baby. I remember seeing that at the drive-in with my parents and little sister! <br />That was before the neo-cons got ahold of Dad. But it was the religious right that finally pulled him out of a seriously ugly stint of what would've probably qualified as clinical depression if he'd given in and gone to counseling. It was certainly clinical chain-smoking and growling at family members. So you've gotta take the bad with the good.<br />My mom and aunts used to take me, my sister and girl cousins to see all the Rocky movies. We indulged in a group Sly Stallone drool-fest and went for lunch and ice cream. They all razzed me for groovin on the Russian in Rocky IV more than on Stallone himself.<br />As for a bona-fide chick flick, I have to confess an all-out-of-reason love of Doris Day movies. Pillow Talk is one of my all-time favorites. Yes, I know they're awful. But I love them like you would love a leg-humping dog - despite their obvious faults so obnoxious to others.DRossnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1027105660999256483.post-5385894422718257702009-04-22T09:20:00.000-04:002009-04-22T09:20:00.000-04:00LOVE "Playing by Heart."
