nights in Rodanthe 3

May 13th, 2008 by missmorrison4 in Uncategorized · No Comments

Paul is the man that Adrienne fell in love with in Rodanthe. The part i read last time was about his life. he lived i a poor home growing up and chose young that he didnt want to end up the same as his family. He got really good grades and wet straight to college. Then he started a family of his own. he was never very good at expressing himself and he got int o a fight with his son which left tere relationship damaged. His wife divorced him soon after the fight with his son. When paul gets upset he indulges himself into his work rather then think about the pain. the last thing paul did was sell his car,house, storage and dropped the lawer that him and his ex wfe shared. this is all that i know. i have a feeling thats how Adrienne met him in Rodanthe because for once he didnt indulge in work and chose to actually let his emotions run through him. this is also around the same time Adriennes ex husband left her for a much younger woman.

This book starts off with Adrienne the mother of 3, being 67 years old. she starts by talking about both her sons and her daughter. they are all married and she is proud of all. Adrienne says that when her husband left her daughter took it hardest. now that the 3 are grown they all live their own lives but sadly Amanda (her daughter) basically stopped living hers when her husbnd died. thats about as far as i am right now

so i just finished the book and for the most part it was a rather slow ending. basically it just talks about how the girls acted after there mother was in a coma. and then about how Travis would come in everyday to see Gabby. it came down to him having to decide whether or not to pull the tube. he didnt. she woke up a few months later. everything ended in a really nice way.

The Choice 2

well basically Gabby goes over to travis’s house and confronts him about the whole dog thing and she gets so angry she doesnt relaly give Travis a chance to get a word in. the only thing he is able to say is that she should take her dog to the local vet. the next day when Gabby does that she is very emberrassed to find out that Travis is the local vet and that Travis’s dog has been neutured for over two years. long story short yes, her dog is pregnant but by someone elses dog. gabby avoids Travis for a little while after that because she doesnt want to remember the day at the Vet. when Gabby finally ends up talking to him its because her dog is having pains and is yelping a lot and she starts getting worried so she goes to get travis. Travis takes the dog itnto the vet and lays next to the dog all night (even though it was his day off).

Wag the Dog long review

May 1st, 2008 by missmorrison4 in Uncategorized · No Comments

Wag the dog starts out having a firefly girl saying that the president had sexual interactions with her in the Oval office. elections are almost over and something like this could ruin his chances of being re-elected. Anne (the president’s official) calls in conrad (a man who is good at covering over bad tracks) to find a way to get everything to blow over. Conrad ends up simulating a war against Albania. Who knows anything about Albania? not to many people which is exactly why Conrad chose it. Anne and Conrad hire a proffesional director named Stanley to help cover up the sex scandal and bring the Albanian war to life. After the mini video clip of a Albanian woman fleeing from her country is produced, Anne and Conrad head back to the US. On the way back they get pulled over by the CIA which is where the movie twists and an unexpected ending gets started.

good and bad parts of this movie
Robert dinero had a few really memorable quotes in this movie that made me think a lot. the first one being
Conrad ‘Connie’ Brean: What’s the thing people remember about the Gulf War? A bomb falling down a chimney. Let me tell you something: I was in the building where we filmed that with a 10-inch model made out of Legos.
Stanley Motss: Is that true?
Conrad ‘Connie’ Brean: Who the hell’s to say?

i found this quote good because it really does show how much the media effects us as Americans. we believe what we hear on the news and who are we as people to say whether its all completely true or not?

other then that i thought the movie was a little slow paced.
