SJ your movie

[Minnie]

NH: I saw something on TV about this within the last few months...now it's gonna drive me crazy wondering what it was I saw and what show it was on. Man, I hate when that happens.

When you remember please share, because I had the same thought.

Loved Call of the Wild, one of my first books I asked for as a Christmas gift as a child.

Don't beat yourself up. It is a LONG, LONG story, and if I hadn't just read the book I doubt that I would have just turned on PBS and watched it. The story is more like a miniseries--you have the initial voyage south, the breaking up of the ship, the ice camps, the escape to Elephant Island, the other escape to South Georgia Island, the crossing to the whaling camp, and the rescue of the crew.

I first heard the story from a friend of mine. He owns a furniture store, and I worked for him for a while when I first cranked up my business. It took him two solid days to tell me the whole story. (Yet it only took me a day or so to read the book. I have friends who are even more long-winded than I am.)

Thanks....think I will read the book though for when this comes up in casual conversation again..

Minnie: My memory ain't what it used to be...see above.

Mine either, so maybe one of us will remember. My husband says mine is very selective though. ;-)

Sometimes, I think I just dream stuff, then I wake up and think..."Maybe that was really on TV"...guess I should turn off the TV when I go to sleep. :roll:

Oh no...I'm serious...I just know that if I read the book...it will NEVER come up again. It will be some other topic I can't remember!

I promise that if you read the book I'll give you a ten-page quiz on it with 3 essay questions.

p.s. the book I linked has a lot of pictures.

On MySpace, the tagline for the movie is "Lose Yourself 9/21/07." Um. Not so funny...
