Joe & Huggy and Valentine's Day

Joe & Huggy are discussing romantic movie lines.

My offering?

Sean Connery to Michelle Pfieffer in Russia House
"I love you. All my failings were preparation for me to you. It's like nothing I have ever known: it's unselfish love, grown up love. You know it is. It's mature, absolute, thrilling love."

Dermot Mulroney to Debra Messing in The Wedding Date (forgetable movie)
"I think I'd miss you even if we'd never met."

Not a line but a scene, Lana Turner flinging herself at John Wayne in The Sea Chase.
MAD SEXY!!!!!!

The Sea Chase

This is my all time favorite John Wayne movie. Yeah, I know SB, "In Harm's Way".... I'm not saying it's his greatest work that was "The Searchers". I'm saying that when young Maggie watched Lana Turner throw herself in John Wayne's arms (1:21 in this clip), ahhhh. If I had the ability to rewind and replay back then, I would have just sat there all day. He shuts the door and the next scene is the two of them talking and smoking in a darkened room. The lights were on when she came in. I didn't know what I knew, but I knew something. Most importantly, I knew I wanted it!

Born on This Day in 1820

I make up my opinions from facts and reasoning, and not to suit any body but myself. If people don't like my opinions, it makes little difference as I don't solicit their opinions or votes.

-William Tecumseh Sherman (1820-1891) American General

A hundred years later.....................Lana Turner.

She was in my favorite John Wayne movie "The Sea Chase". My God! When he kissed her.........I think I was eleven or twelve the first time I saw that. But I knew someday I wanted someone to kiss me that way.

So there you are, something silly.............something serious.
