My grandson is getting married later this year - supposedly...well, I don't want to talk about it. Sheesh. Idiocy. But I remember that movie and at the time thought it was rather weird but I've always wanted to see it again because I think I would enjoy it now, especially if those quotes are any indication of what went on! :)Lowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15305748075301453010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-74197272004487187472018-02-02T15:46:00.872-05:002018-02-02T15:46:00.872-05:00It was a coincidence reading this that I had alrea...It was a coincidence reading this that I had already selected the film Four Weddings and a Funeral to watch this evening either before or after our favorite Feb 2 film, Groundhog Day.I have been to at least one of these venues with someone who was getting married and they were indeed "not my thing" .Beatrice P.
