They were nominated for 4-5 Academy Awards, but didn't win any. "Miracle on 34th Street" came out the same Year, and 'swept' up all the awards. I saw that one again, this week also. Natalie Woods was so cute in it!<BR/><BR/>Stranger yet, the FBI had their SKYGIRLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570320527755641037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3956282559750487168.post-47424307713705136982007-12-16T09:18:00.000-06:002007-12-16T09:18:00.000-06:00You got me thinking about the past preparing you f...You got me thinking about the past preparing you for your present.

I ...I only cry when watching old movies by myself. I mostly cry I think because of the intensity of the love that people have for one another. Like In Wonderful Life I always cry when everyone is so willing to help George. Or in Our Town I cry when Emily is revisiting her day. But it is the love people have for one another that touches me.<BR/><BR/>It is strange that I seldom cry when people are Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13343169479240819918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3956282559750487168.post-29267160381886590982007-12-15T17:56:00.000-06:002007-12-15T17:56:00.000-06:00Being always trumps doing.Yes, Terry.

You've gained some wonderful lessons from this. I can relate to many and I'm sure I'll find out later a few other things I've learned.<BR/><BR/>My thoughts are with you.

I must have seen it 100 times. My thought last night was, wow, so ahead of it's time, in a way, and VERY insightful!<BR/><BR/>I have another question though, why does it ALWAYS make me cry? At the end, every time? It is a HAPPY SKYGIRLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570320527755641037noreply@blogger.com
