I deviated from the bookworm path on BookTube and made a video about some of my favorite underrated movies because I feel they deserve their time to shine! https://youtu.be/9o73j9AKam8

EadieB @Butterflyamore I don‘t really watch a lot of movies. I usually ask my daughter or my husband if they have seen any good movies and then I will watch them. That‘s why I love your list as they all sound good to me and I do want to watch them. I do watch a lot of movies between Christmas and New Years as my daughter comes home and I watch them with her. I actually have seen Finding Forrester and Gaslight and enjoyed them both. 5y
EadieB @Butterflyamore Charles Boyer is French so you really don‘t pronounce the er in his name. It sounds like Boy-yeah. lol I asked my husband for a movie he thinks is underrated and he said Medicine Man which stars Sean Connery. I just recently saw Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil and really enjoyed that. I‘ll have to ask my daughter and I‘ll let you know what she thinks. 5y

EadieB @ Butterflyamore My daughter likes a lot of classic films such as: Two For the Road, The Great Gatsby plus other Bax Luhrman films, Funny Girl, Pretty in Pink, Charade, How To Steal a Million, Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, American Graffiti, Bright Star about John Keats, Meet Me in Saint Louis, Now, Voyager with Bette Davis. Different strokes for different folks! lol 5y
abookishbutterfly @EadieB I‘ve seen Bright Star and I liked it. I‘ll have to look up Medicine Man. I‘ll try to remember that about Charles Boyer‘s name! 5y
EadieB @Butterflyamore He's a very old-time actor (40's) and way before your time. My dad used to watch those old-time movies and now my daughter seems to be following him 5y

This was on my library receipt today. Wow, that‘s a lot of money. But, here‘s some more info, most of the books I check out are for my Kindle so those don‘t even count on this receipt. And, I have two library cards for two different counties. I‘m curious as to what savings I have for the other county. What I‘m really saying here peeps, use your library. Use. Your. Library. #useyourlibrary #booksandmovies

CouronneDhiver Woohoo! That‘s a great little statistic - love it 6y
Bookzombie I wish my library receipts showed this! 6y

LisaJo @Bookzombie This is the first receipt that I‘ve seen it on. It‘s something new they‘re doing. Maybe all the libraries will start doing that. Fingers crossed. 6y
SassyBookworm I have been keeping up with mine this year since I mainly read ebooks from my elibrary. I check what I read (ebook, audiobook, physical book) against Amazon prices. So far I‘ve saved $821.06!!! Libraries are the BEST!!! (edited) 6y
Pamwurtzler 👍🏻 I should try to keep track. Those are some amazing numbers. ❤️the library! 6y
Louise This is great! It would be effective for library fund drives too! 6y

Gutted I missed this. Anybody seen it? #booksandmovies

Palimpsest Yes, I ended up streaming it. I can‘t vouch for the accuracy of the film because I don‘t know all the details of her life, but I can‘t resist watching historical dramas about books or in this case, the author. I did enjoy it. Mary Shelley is the next subject of National Geographic‘s Genius show which I‘m excited to watch! 6y

A little slow going to finish this one but it's done! To make sure everyone leaves me alone today, I'm holed up watching musicals while I read 😂 Sweeney Todd and TOG coming up! Definitely need something a bit lighter. Taking a break to get a start on supper and then I'll get back at it.

Reading the forward of this BOTM pick whose voice sounded so familiar- it was Poet Elizabeth Alexander whose heart wrenching memoir, The Light of the World, I had read recently. 💔Also my sister today recommended the film Loving, about the Supreme Court case Loving v VA that made interracial marriage unconstitutional. http://www.salon.com/2016/12/10/moonlight-and-loving-film-as-symbolic-resistance...
