The American President (1995)
My Favorite Movie
The American President has long been my favorite movie due to the brilliance of Aaron Sorkin's writing style and the performances of Michael Douglas, Annette Bening, Michael J. Fox, and Martin Sheen. The greatest thing that has resulted from this movie is the tv show, The West Wing which features many many characters from this movie, such as Anna Deveare Smith, Joshua Malina, Nina Siezmasko, and of course, Martin Sheen. The fact that you can still fight for your beliefs and fall in love is an idea that many can relate with, and thats partially why it has great appeal. Though some cannot relate to President Shepard's political ideals, they will be able to relate to the pressures of the job and the attraction between the two main characters. Anyway, please see this movie, its also a celebration of the Washington lifestyle, and I hope that you will enjoy it. Its on TBS a lot so please don't hesitate to catch it.
Lucky 7 (2003)
lacking depth but ok
I seem to remember Kimberly Williams in The 10th Kingdom which was good and Patrick Dempsey in Can't Buy Me Love which was ok too, but this movie... it lacked development, as many "cram into a two hour spot" movies do, but if you don't have anything to watch on tv, you might as well turn this on. Even though pieces of the plot may be missing from time to time, its a generally cute story of a girl who tries to follow her life strictly set by her dying mother before she dies.
