way re: John Hughes - heard it on the radio this morning


yeah, rewatched the Breakfast Club again recently with a first timer - I wouldn't go so far as to say I "sided" with the teacher but.. erm... well.. yes.. time hasn't been kind


I forgot about dance sequences in those films as well.

Not classic "feel good" more comedy but I like Happy Gilmour which is brilliant and a soft spot for National Lampoons Vacation films.


Feel good endings - I like True Romance - ends up on a remote beach in Mexico, painting an old boat, with his girl...skint,a few bullet wounds but finally happy.

No it doesn't - almost more bullets than Scarface in it! But I like the idea that after all the violence, drugs he ends up in such peace in the sun - kind of a metaphor that I aspire to...


Also not feel good but watched the brilliant Badlands the other night and it's got the same score as True Romance - I wonder if that was intentional Tarantino referencing...film geeks?

Almost all Audrey Hepburn movies.


I'm another in the Shawshank camp.


Juno is a recent one that made me smile.


Really cheesy old musicals like Calamity Jane, High Society and Oklahoma!.


Some of the better kiddie moves (I'm feeling brave today) like Monsters Inc and the 2nd Shrek film.


Mr Ben and Keef, True Romance makes the list just for the fantastic music in the last scene on the beach - can't hear its life-affirming lilt and pulse and not smile.

Shawshank.


A Knight's Tale. I don't know why, it just makes me chuckle


Shrek, and a few other animated goodies that I am neither young enough nor parenty enough to really get away with


Empire Records. I just love it


And, sorry...


Breakfast at Tiffany's

Grease

Dirty Dancing

The Wedding Singer (joins keef in Drew's fan-club)

Love Actually


...Glad to have got that cleared up, now has anyone seen my testicles? I know they must be around here somewhere...

    • I recently hired Andy to paint the newly plastered walls in my front room, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the start, he offered a fair and reasonable price for the work, and his professionalism really stood out. Andy has a wealth of experience and was happy to share suggestions about colour choices and paint types, which made the decision-making process much easier. He completed the work within the agreed timescale, and I am very happy with the finish.  What impressed me most is that Andy went above and beyond what I initially asked. He not only painted the room beautifully but also helped with extra tasks such as putting up the wall bracket, curtain poles, and curtains, and even gave me a hand moving furniture between rooms. That level of support is rare and very much appreciated. If you’re looking for a painter and decorator who is reliable, trustworthy, reasonably priced, experienced, and willing to go the extra mile to help, I would highly recommend Andy.
    • John recently skimmed the walls in our front room lounge, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and easy to work with.   He arrived on time each day and kept me updated on progress, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The quality of his plastering is smooth, even, and ready to paint with minimal prep. He takes real pride in his work.   John was also very tidy, laying down protective sheets and cleaning up thoroughly after the job was done. It’s clear he respects his clients’ homes, which I really appreciated.   On top of that, he’s friendly, approachable, and trustworthy someone you feel comfortable having in your home. His pricing was fair and transparent, with no unexpected costs.   Highly recommended if you're looking for a skilled and reliable plasterer. I’ll definitely be using him again for any future work.
