Haha, yes! I have way too many emotions for fictional characters than a grown woman should, which is how I came up with Reel Infatuation. I’m so glad I’m not alone.

Col Blimp is an incredible film. I first saw it about a year ago and thought, “Where has this film been all my life?”

Just wanted to say again how much I enjoyed your memories of watching Batman Returns. You almost made me feel like I was there!

I’m looking forward to writing my post for this. I just hope I do John Barrymore justice. I was going to go with an actual movie character but then I decided to do John, as he’s been my biggest crush on-screen and off-screen for sometime now.

Yup, it would be difficult to pick just ONE John B. role. I’m glad your post will be a tribute to the actor himself.
I know it will be fabulous, because you don’t publish anything less than terrific, from what I’ve seen.

Thanks Ruth. I’m thinking of talking about a few of the characters he’s portrayed, but I’ll mostly talk about him I think.
