Team TLC Extra Movie Night …. Well, just Team Member C. “Pocketful of Miracles”
Reminded me a bit of Arsenic & Old Lace. This was Ann-Margaret’s screen debut. Glenn Ford and Betty Davis were amazing! Pure silliness headed by a big-hearted racketeer.

Lillian says, “Good, my favorite character is Maria, musical, my favorite part is either the wedding or the opening scene of “The Hills are Alive with Music”, good to watch any time of the year, and I recommend 100%.”
I say, “Lovely movie about a deeply sad time in history. I’m with Lillian on that opening scene. Wonderful.”
Thomas says, “I like it.”

December 7 2019:
Team TLC movie night – Lillian’s choice: “The Secret of Kells”
Lillian says, “Good, suspenseful, liked the music, and my favorite character is Ashley, the fairy.

November 24 2019:
Extra movie night for me – “The Man Who Invented Christmas”
Never got around to this one last year. What a journey it was for Dickens to create ‘A Christmas Carol.’ Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thomas and Lillian sat this one out.
November 23 2019:
Team TLC Movie Night – First one in the temporary place. My choice: “Green Book”
I say, “Loved the friendship these two created together, their journey to awakening, to understanding. Loved every minute. Seeing this, it’s easier to understand the tensions I felt growing up in the Deep South in the 70’s. Why are people so cruel? Never understood it as a child and still don’t.”
Thomas says, “Yeah, I liked it.”
Lillian sat this one out.

Team TLC Extra Movie Night: Thomas’s choice – “You Can’t Take It With You”
We watch this almost every year in November. Just a fun, lovely, heartwarming story about following and living from one’s heart. We love Frank Capra movies.
