    “Through the Looking Glass”

    I am a really big kid,  and as I get older my mental disposition becomes younger.  Proof of it is in many of the books I read or movies I enjoy watching.  I love fantasy from Disney movies to Jurassic Park and Harry Potter and more.  I began collecting just a year or so ago copies of Alice in Wonderland on DVD and book form.  Each movie version has something unusual to offer as well as the many different talents of the actors.

    I like seeing what different stage or screen companies do with subjects.  I have quite a few movies, duplicated because of versions.  Another fun one to collect is the Wizard of Oz for example, the Wiz and TinMan.  As for Alice, I really like Disney’s version, the colors, the animation and the music.  The new version with Johnny Depp is outstanding and another favorite is with Caterina Scorsone and the play on words in Alice takes you to a completely different way of thinking.  If you have the opportunity to see it, do.

    As for reality in the looking glass, only my cat seems to see into the world of Through.  For myself I have to read or watch.

    I have high hopes of seeing some of my favorite movies stories finished.  I look forward to both Harry Potters and the Deathly Hallows, the second installment of Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr., another in the works Indiana Jones and I’m pretty sure there is more I’m not recalling.  The books and movies take me through the looking glass in the most special of ways each and every time I read or watch.  It all makes me feel very young and I like that.

    Have a super week and thanks always for any comments.

  • Dear Becca,
    I belief that with aging we just loose shame =D We are no longer ashamed for enjoying children stuff. After all, we don’t need to prove any longer that we are grownup…
    Your cat photo is very interesting. Beside being in front of the mirror, he seems to be part of a story too =)
