Poll question: Ever seen "Shirley Valentine?" (I swear this is my last post, and then
Edited on Tue Aug-02-05 09:25 PM by bertha katzenengel
I'm going to bed.)

If you vote "yes" -- :7

If you vote "no" -- SEE IT! You may have to get it on video or a 3 AM viewing on HBO72, but SEE IT. It's one of the best stories ever.

Now: 'night, all!

edit: And it brought me and Mrs. V. together!

1. If I keep deleting cookies, can I vote for yes for the 8 or 9 times I have
seen it? Love that film. It is the women in my family's favorite chick flick.

3. Love. that. movie
I have a copy of it on VHS and it's one of my favorites. That story inspired me to "run away" when I needed to most-I call it my "Shirley Valentine" phase. Left my kids with their Dad for 1 week, I'd needed it desperately and didn't realize it until seeing the movie. Of course, I didn't have quite so romantic a time and am now a single parent-but, hey, we've survived.
I agree, if you haven't seen it-get it!!
I think I'll go watch it again, it's been awhile....:hi:

12. I love that movie
My mom saw it first, then shared it with me. My mom could have been Shirley Valentine.

I love the part where he kisses her stretch marks and calls them a mark of her womanhood. Beautiful. :loveya:

15. Yes, Beautiful. Like your avatar.
Reminds me of the Goddess of Willendorf.

(I also love how she answers him: "Aren't men full of shit?")
