Per your recommendation, I watched this tonight and just loved loved loved it! Thanks!

Jesse ais a good friend, i'm glad you enjoyed his movie

[bg-thomas.livejournal.com]

You know her? OMG! Please please please tell her how much I enjoyed her. She certainly is THE star, despite the wonderful man-candy that could actually act. She was so very good and really told the message clearly and beautifully that we all must be WHO we are and to let nothing stop us.

She coached me!

I know Jesse Archer ;-) HE is one of the man-candy (the main character's best friend and roommate) and also producer and screenwriter of the movie.

Well this still fits then. I said the man-candy in this movie could actually act for a change. He was wonderful. Just wonderful!

And the message was his! How fantastic.

Please tell him everything I said. His movie was excellent, entertaining, had a good message, moved me, made me laugh and more.

I have been out of surgery for just short of two weeks and I really needed a pick me up. Something to make me laugh and feel good.

If this doesn't stop my short term writer's block, nothing will. Thank you.
