The Princess Bride

Loved it.

Thanks everyone, those are some great ideas, keep them coming, we like to watch movies on the weekend.

I'm thinking Monty Python and the Holy Grail and the Princess Bride for tonight.............she hasn't seen either one, and I think she'll like them.

Do the Princess Bride first. Monty might be a bit over her head. This way..if she doesn't like it..you can enjoy it..and she could do something else.

Oh, she has my sense of humor, and loves Satire, so I think she'll 'get it' and rofl too! We also love "This is Spinal Tap" and any Christopher Guest movie.......

I was surprised at Race to Witch mountain. Wasn't bad.....

Stardust

Great, funny movie. Reminds you of the Princess Bride.

Bed of Roses with Christian Slater and Mary Stuart Masterson
Romatic drama that is really a good movie.

The Princess Bride

I second this...FANTASTIC movie...two enthusiastic thumbs up


I'll add Serenity...space western...no cussing, no sex, plus strong female characters.

I think this would be appropriate for a 15 year old. It is THE most hilarious movie I have ever seen, I laughed throughout the entire movie

There is a ripped off American version, this British version one was first, and the best

Did You Hear About the Morgans? is somewhat predictable but clean enough for a 15 yr. old to watch.

It has Sam Elliott in it - how bad can it be?

Seriously though, when I was 15, I was watching damn near everything. My parents nor I saw any reason to stick to "kids shows".

Well folks, you all have great suggestions!

She picked "The Runaways"-the story of Joan Jets Band.

The Runaways Movie Reviews, Pictures - Rotten Tomatoes

She liked it.


We are going to a friends tomorrow to have a Monty Python Movie Marathon, so we're saving those movies until then, too fun!

 

[JW Frogen]

As my avatar might suggest one of my favorite movies is Cool Hand Luke.

Great writing and acting.

There is even a philosophical-theological subtext.
