I wnat to hear what you think about the movies at least.
Well, to be honest, I don't think you're giving My Fair Lady a fair chance. It won some Oscars, and Audrey Hepburn is amazing in it. For it to get dismissed out of hand because it's a musical, or somehow dumb-sounding, seems...short-sighted, in my opinion. There's good reasons I list that in my list of classic movies. You don't know that you dislike beets for sure until you've tried a bite of them.

The musical is based on George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion, and is very faithful to it.

As for Citizen Kane...well, you might have to watch that again. It seems pretty dull on the first glance, but if you really go back and watch it, it's a cinematic masterpiece, for what tech they were working with at the time.

Actually, the -one- time I dressed in drag, I looked like a farm girl with a serious hormone problem.

And, before anyone asks, it was for a class project, and it was ONLY the one time.
I look like Mimi from Drew Carey. I've only done it a few times on Halloween.

I've done drag a couple of time for hiv fund raisers for Center One here in South Florida and I did dress as the Huntress one year for Halloween, and Supergirl for another.

I just noticed that, of all the reborn groups, we have far and away the highest post count. At this rate, we'll be making a new thread every month.

I really liked some of the camera angles out of citizen kane.

my fair lady, I'm basing it on like five minutes I saw when george harrison was singing in a library or something or other. I'd rather watch breakfast an tiffany's first

hey anybody like that movie where audrey plays a blind girl and someone is trying to kill her?
