Ellipsis Movie Of The Week... Practical Magic



"I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for."

~Sally Owens (Sandra Bullock)


If you've known me very long, then you know that Practical Magic both the book and the movie, have been favorites of mine for years! This year they are a little more special to me, I am going to see, Practical Magic 2 today, the first day of autumn, as a a little treat to myself. Practical Magic 2 came out a couple weeks ago, but I saved it especially for today, as a little treat to myself. I will tell you all about it later in the week. You already know about the original film, released in 1998, but if you don't go watch it. It's a really great movie to get lost in. It's worth your time. A little romance, a little supernatural thriller, and all about women and the magical powers we all hold and bring us together. A story about sisterhood and so much more! Including a nifty soundtrack my Alan Silvestri. One of my favorite movie composers of all time! So, have you seen Practical Magic 2 yet? Have you seen either movie yet?

"Curses only have power when you believe in them. I don't. 
You know what? I wished for you too!"

Ellipsis Movie Of The Week... Minions

Cast: Alison Janney, Sandra Bullock, Michael Keaton, Jon Hamm, Geoffrey Rush, 


This cool little movie came out in 2015, and I am just seeing it now! In fact, I watched it this past week, and thoroughly enjoyed the break from the reality of being a grown-up! I am going to be watching a lot more of these movies, because life is just too short to dwell on the distress of being an adult American in 2026! I was under a lot of stress in 2015, I was scared, and depressed, in the middle of a BIG move. It was the move that meant I would now be living in the San Joaquin valley. I could have used a day at the movies, just escaping from the stress of what ended up to be, the worst summer of my life, but I was so busy, I didn't even realize this adorable film had even been released! And that was is a shame, it would have been just what the doctor ordered! I'm sure you've seen it with your kids or grandkids, but it you haven't, watch it for yourself, I can't recommend it enough! Especially if you need a little while to visit with the kid who still lives in you!

Banana!
