This movie has been on my watchlist forever:
A), I moved to an elementary school in the 7th grade. In the 6th grade, before I got there, my entire grade got to see "The Phantom of Opera" in person, in theatre (the actual show - meaning, not in the cinema. I'm not that young.) So, when I arrived at the school, the other kids were constantly singing "Phantom" songs and I had the biggest case of FOMO ever.
And B),…
Beyonce made love to me through the screen many times during that show and I was a willing participant
I liked this better than I had expected to, based on its trailer, which I found really corny! It was cute!
Rachael Leigh Cook was so cute. At first I was rolling my eyes at Rachael playing that typical nerdy character that she always plays, but then I thought, maybe Rachael is just like that? LOL. And they gave her this overly quirky car that I think can play only one song, ugh, which just happened on the show "Stumptown".…
I really liked it.
And I felt GUILTY for that. I know that public perception was not kind to this movie. And that public perception is not kind to Gwyneth Paltrow.
But you know what? I LIKE GWYNETH PALTROW. I LIKE GWYNETH PALTROW MOVIES. It's time to just embrace that. I saw this movie on a list called Guilty Pleasures. But I'm an adult. I'm done with the guilty pleasures. I don't want the GUILT. I just want the PLEASURE.…
