“Ever After” DVD on Amazon.com
Suggested by Happy Fenton, JEM
Drew Barrymore hardly ever plays in period films – but she fits the role perfectly despite her bubbly personality. In “Ever After”, the winsome actress plays the feisty Danielle who falls in love with Prince Henry, played by Dougray Scott – in a modern, funny and touching twist to the tale of Cinderella.

Ziyi Zhang and Suzuka Ohgo are excellent in this touching and interesting movie where we learn a lot about a totally different culture. The movie is touching, trustworthy and sometimes very sad. You would regret missing this.

“Falling in Love” DVD on Amazon.com
See Meryl Streep and Robert deNiro falling in love in this wonderful movie. It’s a beautiful story but full of complications which makes the film full of life from the beginning to the last minute. This movie will be on the top list for yet another decade, I’m sure of it.
