@seekjustice Oh, I see.  No, that’s what we discussed before, and I agree with you. 😉  That’s why I don’t want to watch it.  For some reason I interpreted your previous post to mean that you disliked the fact that they cast a really good actress to play in such an awful film, because if they cast an actress that did a bad job, people wouldn’t li…[Read more]

@rochellaine

The whole movie is based on two books “The Little Woman” and “The Small Woman”. From this, I get the impression that if the Chinese women were calling Gladys small, she was indeed tiny. Ingrid Bergman is not. Nor does she have long dark hair, like Gladys. In fact, Gladys was mistaken for a Chinese woman when she fell into a coma…[Read more]

@seekjustice What did you mean was one of the things that annoyed you about the movie?  The fact that Ingrid Bergman is a great actress?

@Rochellaine

That was one of the things that really annoyed me about the movie 😛

Hmm, it sounds interesting. I’ve read a bit abounds Anna Anderson and she sounds like a very unhappy person.

@seekjustice Oh no.  I just found out that Ingrid Bergman plays Gladys Aylward in The Inn of the Sixth Happiness! 😮  I’m sorry.  She’s still one of my favorite actresses.  (but I still have no intention of watching that film! 😛 )

It seems pretty accurate to me.  I haven’t seen it, but the movie is about Anna Anderson, not about Anastasia, and…[Read more]

@Rochellaine

Yep, its 1956. Its the movie the animated movie and the Broadway play were apparently based on.

Is that other one sort of historically accurate?

@seekjustice Oh, that’s too bad!  At least we’re both here now.

Ingrid Bergman??  She’s one of my absolute favorite actresses!  She’s amazing!!  No, that’s not the one I was talking about, but I’m going to look it up now. 😉  The tv movie with Olivia de Havilland and Rex Harrison is the one I just heard about.

@rochellaine

I’ve been waiting to hear from you for ages! For some reason I didn’t get an email when you tagged me.

I haven’t, I don’t think. I know of an older movie, with Ingrid Bergman. Its not that one, is it?

@seekjustice @catwing Hey, I’m off my conference call now. 😀

SeekJustice, I was just reading about the 1986 tv movie about Anastasia/Anna Anderson and wondering if you’ve seen it or heard of it?  (I discovered it because apparently a couple  actors I like worked in it. 😉 )

@catwing

Good job 🙂

Sorry,  my internet is super slow at the moment and I didn’t get your message until just then.

@catwing

That’s a good, down to earth sentence. I like it.

@Catwing

I got 350. You’re familiar with the sentence game, no?

What was your favourite sentence?

I like this one:

A good queen can never feel regret, Sanhita.

Closely followed by:

High Praise made sure she gave him an extra good glare as he passed through the door.

@Catwing I was temporarily engaged. I’ll start in a moment.

@seekjustice @catwing Have fun word warring.  I’m going to disappear now, since my conference call starts soon.  I’ll probably be on later, though.  Bye for now!

@catwing

Pondering what “rathet” meant, wondering if I should look it up…

😀 😀 “Rathet” can be a new word meaning “extremely” or something like that, huh?

Imagine saying to someone “I am rathet hungry!  Get me some food now!” 😛

@seekjustice

@Rochellaine

All I can think of to do is heap more sorrow on Courageous. Poor boy.

Oh that’s really cool! Our property is just a little smaller than that (45 acres, I think).

We do use acres, but I think the official measurement is hectares, which are much larger. The confusing thing about Australia is that website had imperial system in living…[Read more]

@catwing

Hello! I’ll probably need a word war to get through this part. Its rathet miserable.

@seekjustice Well, there was that one time when you were at church or something, (on a Wednesday, I think) and Dekreel and I didn’t know and kept tagging you over and over like fifteen times… 😉  But then, you didn’t get those until you got home, so I guess that doesn’t count.  I do like it when I’m tagged, though, since it means someone’s t…[Read more]

@rochellaine

😀 sometimes I’m not sure 🙂 I’d definitely find it annoying if someone kept tagging me and I couldn’t reply.

Cool.

Well, I’m 20k into my story (only 12k in NaNo though) so it feels like its going well, but my story seems kinda dead to me.

@seekjustice First of all, I doubt it would ever be annoying for you to tag me. 😉

Second, I can’t word war but I can chat now for a bit while I’m studying for a law school conference call I’l be having in an hour. 😀

So, how’s nano going?
