Decoy Bride, Something Borrowed, The Secret World of Arrietty

Now onto the movies I've seen recently. I watched Decoy Bride also (Jennifer talked about it a few posts below).  I liked it too! The storyline was fun and it's clean.  It definitely helped that David Tennant was in it, who is really ridiculously good-looking :).   And overall it was a good show! 

I watched Something Borrowed.  There were some cute parts, but I would not recommend it. 

I also watched The Secret World of Arrietty.  It is a Japanese anime film by Studio Ghibli.  It is about little borrowers who live underneath a house in the country and the daughter is discovered by one of the big people and life turns interesting.  I liked it!  It is good stuff!    

A Wrinkle in Time, C.S. Lewis, The Avengers, Jimmy Stewart

I read A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle as recommended by Heather.  I really liked it.  I liked the symbolism of good vs. evil.  Sometimes evil will win, but ultimately good will win. At times we have to do hard things but we have been prepared to do these things and can do it with courage, faith and help from the Lord. And love conquers all! 

I cannot believe that I haven't read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis until now.  But I picked it up while I was visiting my parents in Utah and read it on the plane back. I've seen the movie before and really liked it and it seems to be pretty similar to the book.  I like the symbolism in the book as well as the movie.  I plan on reading the rest of the series now. 

I watched Bend of the River which is a 1952 western with Jimmy Stewart, Rock Hudson and Arthur Kennedy.  It's a little cheesy, but I liked it anyway.  It probably helped that Jimmy Stewart is in it who I really like :) 

I saw The Avengers last week.   It's a really good movie and I really liked it. The superheroes are awesome!

I also watched The Girl Who Leapt Through Time which is another Japanese anime movie. I must admit it was a little odd, but I liked it anyway.  I think I've come to expect that from Japanese anime, but I think that's what makes me like them so much :)
