Cupids Whispering in Her Ears: Roxanne's Earrings in 'Roxanne'
Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Nov 14, 2011
Costume is one of the most important ways for films to offer clues to their characters' identities and natures.

September Movie List
Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Oct 27, 2011
September was a busy month for watching movies! With my spouse away much of the month, I had more evening time to devote to movies (he prefers TV episodes). I made a point of getting around to some classics that I had meant to see for a long time. It might take me months to get caught up writing abo read more

My Life at the Movies
Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Sep 9, 2011
I saw my first movie when I was only a few weeks old. It was The French Connection (1971); my young, cash-strapped parents had collected discarded bottles and cans to get together enough money for the drive-in show, and of course they took me along. I can’t say that I remember anything about i read more

Movies for July 2011
Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Aug 11, 2011
My film list for July reflects the fact that I let the husband pick most of the movies we saw. His tastes are decidedly more toward modern action and sci-fi, although he does get credit for picking Harold and Maude. July also proved a busy month for trips to the local theater, the busiest of the sum read more
LEGO Coloring Sheet
Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Jul 12, 2011
July always ends up being LEGO month at our house because my club has its summer show around this time each year. While my movie watching and writing have slowed to a crawl, my LEGO time has shot through the roof.
We try to organize different activities for the kids to enjoy at the show because the read more

Going through my lists of films watched and reviews written, I realize that there's a lot of Bette Davis in the mix. She's certainly one of my favorite actresses, although the more I read about her the more I realize that I like her much better on screen than I would have in real life. That's true o read more

Movies for April 2011
Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on May 5, 2011
My movie watching came to an abrupt halt at the end of the month when the tornadoes charged through Alabama and left us without power for four days. Wandering around a darkened city, we had a lot of surreal moments that seemed to come straight out of post-apocalyptic films. Luckily, the residents of read more
