This weekend Kris and I rented a couple movies. We hadn't done that in a long time. So long in fact our membership had lapsed. But we got reentered into the system.

I had seen the preview for "The Holiday" on my Nacho dvd. It looked interesting. It was. In fact I will not be content with watching it once. It was a keeper. I will buy a copy asap. "The Holiday" stars Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, Eli Wallach, Ed Burns and Jack Black. It's a romantic comedy about two women, one rural England, one from LA, who exchange homes for a couple weeks vacation.


A keeper.




The second movie we rented was the "Pursuit of Happyness".


It's based on the true story of a man struggling to get ahead in life and to over come unbelievable odds. We managed to miss this one at the theaters and had wanted to see it. Will Smith did a wonderful job as did his real life son Jaden. This is a movie to encourage you when you think you can't go on.


Yes Happyness is misspelled. That is explained in the movie.

Check it out.
