Well, fellow movie viewers, the time has come to say goodbye. In looking at the next six months, I realized that something's gotta give (hey - that's catchy!). I drew straws and sadly, work/the real world won over blogging on <em>Let's See</em>. <br />
<br />
BUT - to send you off in style, here's one last quiz. Can you guess these movies from their last lines? (I know 20 is a lot, but it's only fitting we go out with a bang!) I'll post answers in the comments later this week.<br />
<br />
<br />
1. "And so, ladies and gentlemen, you, too, like this satisfied customer, can solve all your problems by subscribing to an answering service."<br />
<br />
2. "It's a far, far better thing I do than I have ever done. It's a far, far better rest I go to than I have ever known."<br />
<br />
3. "Emily, I have a little confession to make. I really am a horse doctor. But marry me, and I'll never look at any other horse."<br />
<br />
4. "May I obey all your commands with equal pleasure, Sire!"<br />
<br />
5. "And oh, Auntie Em, there's no place like home."<br />
<br />
6. "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."<br />
<br />
7. "I’m not a cabdriver. I’m a coffeepot."<br />
<br />
8. "Hey, Stella! Hey, Stella!"<br />
<br />
9. "No patty fingers, if you please. The proprieties at all times. Hold on to your hats."<br />
<br />
10. "I now pronounce you men and wives."<br />
<br />
11. "The real king is on the throne, Jean is my very own, and life couldn't possibly, not even probably, life couldn't possibly better be!"<br />
<br />
12. "Well, nobody's perfect."<br />
<br />
13. "But before we start that, may I have the stamps?"<br />
<br />
14. "Where the devil are my slippers?"<br />
<br />
15. "Good. For a moment there, I thought we were in trouble."<br />
<br />
16. "It's not like that at all. He's my brother."<br />
<br />
17. "As you wish." <br />
<br />
18. "Fellas, last year I made three million dollars. But your fifty thousand was the most fun. Are you ready? Then, let's go get 'em."<br />
<br />
19. "Do I still have to sleep in the cupboard?"<br />
<br />
20. "I sometimes catch myself looking up at the moon, remembering the changes of fortune in our long voyage, thinking of the thousands of people who worked to bring the three of us home. I look up at the moon, and wonder: When will we be going back? And who will that be?"<br />
<br />
Bonus: "End of story."<br />
<br /><br />

the plot: Ashley has been on her own all her life and feels even more alone before Christmas as she searches fruitlessly for a job. But her neighbor, Nick, knows exactly what to do. He offers her a job, to be his assistant in the best work: helping others. There's one caveat: Ashley can't tell anyone that her new boss is a sort of Secret Santa, helping others anonymously. Through her new job, Ashley meets Will, a writer for a business magazine who uncovers what Ashley is doing, and more importantly, Nick's involvement. As Ashley and Nick help people in need, Ashley tries to protect Nick's secret, and her own heart, while Will must weigh the consequences of what he does.</div>

during the holiday season and, after finding each other through a dating website,
agree to pose as each other's special someone. Things get complicated when Rob's
Catholic family and Julie's Jewish family get involved to help these two make it
to the altar. As they double their efforts to keep the charade going through New
Year's Eve, Rob and Julie are more than a little surprised when they discover
they're actually falling in love. </div>

the plot: They aren’t exactly the three wise men, but a snowbound stranger, a crafty uncle
and a precocious boy may just have what it takes to remind one crazed woman what
the holiday season is all about. Jennifer Cullen is a single, working mom who has become
somewhat of a Scrooge when it comes to the Holiday season. When Jen’s Uncle Ralph, a retired police officer, comes to
visit for Christmas, he brings along a new friend, a nomad and
Jack-of-all-trades named Morgan Derby - who is stranded due to flight cancellations - and Jennifer begins to remember why it's the most wonderful time of the year. </div>

the plot: When Mrs. Miracle appears as a seasonal employee in the toy department at the financially troubled Finley’s Department Store, neither the store’s owners, nor the customers, have any idea of the events that are about to unfold. Just when it seemed Christmas might not come at all this year, Finley’s favorite employee proves they don’t call her Mrs. Miracle for nothing! </div>

I liked the original <a href="http://youtu.be/eYoFmmLLdTw">Mrs. Miracle</a>, but Mrs. Miracle is a bit more impish in this one and her ongoing battle to get the Scrooge-ish J.R. Finley in the Christmas spirit is fun to watch.</div>

the plot: Nineteen days before Christmas, successful accountant Peter Brockman's life is turned upside down when his fiancée Jill dumps him because of his emotional detachment and his tendancy for being a workaholic. While sipping on soda at a lounge, he meet Bob, a blues pianist and singer, who is working for tips. The two talk about their love of music. When Bob invites Peter to his house, Peter is amazed to find Bob's house is a homeless shelter, and that the occupants have some musical talent. Peter meets the caring, straight-talking nun Sister Agatha, who gives him some perspective and he decides to organize the men into a choir to raise some funds for the shelter. Although the choir's musical abilities become better each day, Peter and the other singers go through their own personal trials. They finally begin to trust in each other and share in the gift of music. </div>

the plot: Professor Evan Farnsworth is a widower who works tirelessly at a prestigious boarding school in Maine, dedicating all his time to helping his students believe in themselves. Accepting a job to teach the students left behind during Christmas vacation, including talented scholarship student Juliet, nerdy outcast Albert and privileged bad boy Drew, Farnsworth quickly faces a challenge when Drew gets into trouble. Upset his wealthy parents ditched him for a Paris skiing vacation, Drew takes his anger out on the neighboring town’s Wishing Tree, a bare tree decorated with handwritten notes containing the townspeople’s holiday wishes. A much loved tradition, it doubles as a fundraiser for needy families, depending on donations from eager wish-makers. Drew's misguided mother eventually threatens Farnsworth's job, but with the help of the students, Farnsworth discovers that anything is possible.</div>

I think the trailer is a bit misleading. The romance takes a backseat to the plot of Farnsworth's interactions with the students - which is a much better storyline anyway.</div>

You know the kind. Guaranteed to have a predictable plot with either a heartwarming adjustment of priorities to get in the spirit of the season or a life-changing event to the tune of one or more Christmas carols. So if you're in for some good old-fashioned Christmas nostalgia/romance/magic...buckle up, 'cause here we go.
What can I say? It's the hap-happiest season of all!

This year, Emily is hoping for a memorable holiday and anticipating a long-awaited proposal from her long-distance boyfriend Brian. Her world turns upside down when the parade director hires a wealthy development consultant, Henry Williams, to analyze the finances of the parade and increase profits. Immediately writing Henry off as a privileged playboy, Emily worries he will ruin the joyful spirit of the parade, not knowing how much it means to the city. As the two are forced to work together to pull off a successful production, Emily is determined to show Henry she’s in charge. But when Emily suffers a sudden setback, she starts to rely on Henry to help her through it, and suddenly realizes she might be falling for him. </div>

<br />
Monday morning, I also stumbled across a few gems on TCM. George Sanders (well before his time as the bad guy on In Search of the Castaways, or providing the voice for Shere Kahn) was the dashing, devil-may care Simon Templar (The Saint) and Gay Lawrence (The Falcon). The Falcon movies were fun, but I have to say I loved The Saint movies best. <br />
<br />
Now I've got to see if I can find them on DVD...<br />

the plot: At the start of WWII, Katie O'Hara, an American burlesque girl intent on social
climbing, marries Austrian Baron Von Luber. Pat O'Toole, an American radio
reporter, sees this as a chance to investigate Von Luber, who is suspected of
having Nazi ties. As country after country falls to the Nazis, O'Tool follows
O'Hara across Europe. At first he is after a story, but he gradually falls in
love with her. When she learns that her husband is indeed a Nazi, O'Hara fakes
her death and runs off with O'Toole. But that's not the end of the story...</div>
