Watching.....Priceless


Last night Mark had a solo gig, so Kate and I spent the evening by ourselves. After she went to bed, I snuggled in to watch a movie. I love my husband dearly, madly even, but I must admit, our tastes in movies are often drastically at odds, and my chances of getting him to watch a movie with subtitles, well, they're just not good. I've had this movie on my Netflix queue for awhile now, but was waiting for just such a night to enjoy it. It did not disappoint. Such a charming film! In a lot of ways the storyline reminds me of Breakfast at Tiffany's, except of course, Priceless is set in the present day and it's in French. I made the mistake of watching this film all grunged out in yoga pants and a hoodie, and felt like quite the frumpy American as Audrey Taotou pranced around in all her gorgeous dresses and lovely tousled hair, but I consoled myself by the fact that she is so the epitome of French chic and elegance she would make even Gwyneth Paltrow look frumpy. Just sayin'. Anyway, it's really an awesome movie. You can watch the trailer here.

  2. Just added it to my Netflix instant queue! Sounds lovely :) Though, maybe I should put on some heels and wear some lipstick before sitting down to view it, haha.
