Three on a Match - I've been feeling like watching movies lately, especially the old ones on TMC, (Turner Movie Channel) and the other night was Ann Dvorak night on TMC, and this was a 1932 movie about three girls who went to grade school together, then lost track of each other until they met up again in their twenties. It was really really good. Bette Davis and Joan Blondell played the other two girls. They were all very young, very beautiful, and the fashions and interiors were wonderful. In this scene, they've just rediscovered each other.
Flipped - This was a sweet movie I stumbled onto the other night. Directed by Rob Reiner, it's a coming of age movie about a boy and a girl who live across the street from each other in the 1950s. It's sweet and a little predictable, and I fell asleep at the end, so maybe it wasn't predictable. I'm going to try to find it again, tape it and watch the ending.
Soul Kitchen - I recorded this German movie about a Greek German guy, Zinos, who owns a restaurant called Soul Kitchen. That's him standing in the middle of this great cast of characters. He's got a wacky brother who can get out of jail for a few hours a day and a girlfriend who is moving to China, and has just hired a wild chef to cook for Soul Kitchen. It's a funny little movie, but Zinos holds it together. Somehow we really like he and his nutty brother, and that crazy chef. It's fun to watch if you happen across it on Sundance and there's nothing else on TV.
Her Heart On Her Sleeve: I live in a suburb north of Chicago, and I read, bead, make jewelry, sew, watch TV and movies, crochet, craft, decorate, go to house and garage sales, walk and go on beach walks, listen to music, take pictures, cook and bake, read, and write about all of it on herheartonhersleeve. I have a companion blog called Jewlery by Dianne Sophia at diannesophia.blogspot.com where I write exclusively about my jewelry.
Jewelry By Dianne Sophia: I have been collecting vintage jewelry since I was a girl growing up in Detroit, and have been designing and making jewelry for 15 years. I love to work with pearls and crystals, semi-precious stones, Sterling Silver and Gold, along with vintage beads and materials. I delight in combining shape, pattern and color in new ways. I'm inspired and influenced by my travels and experiences as a reader, writer, photographer and student of life.
