This happened to me most with Robert De Niro after viewing Cape Fear. That feeling has mostly worn off now, but yikes. He was so believably evil in that movie.Darcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642443487136176511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-85850734599426197342017-01-27T11:32:49.809-05:002017-01-27T11:32:49.809-05:00I sashayed down a long, winding staircase and down...I sashayed down a long, winding staircase and down the aisle to join my groom at my wedding to Pachelbel's Canon in D Major. Really love that piece and haven't tired of it. Now it is even more special.<br /><br />As the guests were settling and right before Pachelbel's Canon, we played "It Is Well With My Soul" sung by Joey Feeks. So moving.Darcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642443487136176511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-60223684594422283922017-01-26T15:41:21.115-05:002017-01-26T15:41:21.115-05:00ric, The book about the show, Mary and Rhoda... t...ric, The book about the show, Mary and Rhoda... talks about her perfectionism and how she toiled to make EVERY episode the best it could be. ndspinellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446291993043775612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-34102765984003300402017-01-26T15:39:59.094-05:002017-01-26T15:39:59.094-05:00The flick deals w/ the most difficult think that c...The flick deals w/ the most difficult think that can happen to a human, or any animal, losing a child. ndspinellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446291993043775612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-41021170265620939372017-01-26T13:23:11.950-05:002017-01-26T13:23:11.950-05:00Evi -- I think MTM had a lot of the tense perfecti...Evi -- I think MTM had a lot of the tense perfectionist in her.ricpichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01321511130788764861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-41289784168606762442017-01-26T13:20:03.662-05:002017-01-26T13:20:03.662-05:00Ditto Meth's comment.

Probably 17 or 18 and some of the references didn't hit me at first, but I've watched it again a few times and it gets more intense each time.Methadrashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07828014989470539375noreply@blogger.com
