Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Summer Movie Lovers…..

This past weekend Julian, Grandma and I set off for the movies! Before we left, Grandma had to whisk broom the hound hairs off of her Grandson! Tehehehe

Emma…“What hound hairs? Are they white?”

We went to see Tornado Alley at the Omni Max Theater at the Union Terminal! We rated it 4 paws up!

Our weather was beautiful for once!

But the weather for Tornado Alley, not so much!

OH MY DOG! I had goose bumps the entire time. I loved it and so did Julian and Grandma. Chaps, would have HATED IT! No Thundershirt in the world would have got him though this movie.

Can you imagine having this as a basset hauling vehicle?

It was so much fun!

After the movie we went up to tower A in Union Terminal and viewed the switching yard. That was pretty cool as well!

A good time was had by all and it was back to the basset hauling vehicle.

More summer movie picks later……Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

P.S. – Has anyone else seen it?

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Cat’s Movie Pick Lovers….I sure hope you are one of those! I try hard to find the so-called “sleepers” that fall through this cracks but this pick is no sleeper! In fact the only sleepers I saw were Chaps and Emma!

ALL ABOUT EVE!

Released in 1950 and is in my opinion one of the best films ever made.

An ingenue insinuates herself in to the company of an established but aging stage actress and her circle of theater friends.

I had not watched this movie for about 30 years. I was captivated as I clung to every scene, as was Emma…

3 hours of glorious cinema and Emma was a true “sleeper”!

Look at that lip! hehehe

Obviously, it was not a bumpy night for Shimlette.

More adoring every second of this movie and Shimlette later…..Cat, Chaps and Emma

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and running your own race lovers……

Well, I watched Secretariat recently and I was wowed. I really loved it! Secretariat means a lot to me. Not the movie, but the horse. Himz is kind of my hero. Secretariat and I have had a moment, every morning, since 1997.

My hero hangs in my home. He brings me inspiration everyday!

This is a signed print from artist James Puleo that I purchased in Lexington, KY.

I touch his white diamond every morning and say, “let’s win our race”. I was amazed when I saw the movie and one of the main lines was, “Run your own race”! Well, I totally get it.

“Run your own race.” So much better…..

Emma runs her own race everyday. A race to the kitchen!

Today she beat the Mayor!

More running your own race later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and not loving football lovers. I NEVER watch football and probably never will. I might tune in to half time to see the Peas. Anyway, do I have a treat for you. While all of the TVs in your house are on the football channel you can watch 6 hours of PBS – Masterpiece Theater. Yes! This is a stunning, sweeping, spectacular period piece called – Downton Abbey.

I highly recommend that you take some time and read the website. Make sure to read the interview by Julian Fellowes, writer and director. He sets up his masterpiece very nicely.

The entire 6 hours is on line and runs in 4, 1.5 hour episodes. Howl ever! It is only on line until the 22nd of this month. Then, it will be gone.

Here is the link to all 4 of the episodes:

DOWNTON ABBEY EPISODES 1 THRU 4

Just as a side note. Downton Abbey will continue with 8 more episodes in September of this year. I will notify everyone when they are on.

More loving PBS later….Cat, Chaps and Emma

P.S. I now refer to Chaps as his Lordship……

and Emma as her Ladyship…….

P.P.S. You can thank me later…..

Yours truly, Cat AKA, the handmaiden to his Lordship and her Ladyship!

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and wondering about the King’s Speech Lovers.

OMD! Grandma and I went to see this movie today and we loved it. The word sublime was used in the actual movie twice that I caught and it is the perfect word to describe this masterpiece.

Grandma and I were enthralled. This movie was right up our alley!

We were 2 hours late feeding the kids dinner and they were none too pleased. Chaps actually came down a bit hard on the hand that had a few fries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He wants it to be know to all of his subjects…..

“There is only one KING!

The Real King…..”

And there is no stammer in his howl!

More loving the word sublime later….Cat, Chaps and Emma

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and needing a good laugh lovers! I know you can’t watch this tonight but do yourself a favor and Netflix it or do what ever you do to rent movies! It is sooooooooo funny!

Seems like old times! With Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase – need I say more?

One look at the trailer and you will be sold. You might even buy it! Hey, it might be a good gift for someone!

I can remember watching this movie back in 1980s thinking that I would like to rescue dogs some day. Who would have ever thunk it?

I am so glad I found this movie again and could share it. I laughed so hard. Great feel good comedy for the howlowdays!

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and movie pick lovers! I watched an HBO on demand documentary last night called Teenage Paparazzo by Adrian Grenier of Entourage fame. I have never seen Entourage but I found this documentary somewhat fascinating.

I love TV! New TV, old TV, good TV, bad TV, any TV! With today’s scadzillion channels you can really find some massive TV!

So, if you get HBO on demand you have until 10-25-10 to catch Cat’s movie pick for the night.

More picks later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma ( the paparzzi darling)

I heard this picture went for lots and lots! hehehe
