A Cinderella Story
Amytha and I saw A Cinderella Story (the new Hilary Duff movie) tonight - a very enjoyable high school bubble-gum flick. I felt really old when I realized I had lived through at least three generations of high school flicks (letsee... I was in high school during movies like Say Anything (1989)) and that in the previews, I thought the teachers were cute (John Corbett's in Hilary Duff's next flick, Raise Your Voice). But you can't help rooting for Duff (especially when her dream is to go to Princeton -- because that's where her dad told her that princesses and princes go... right before he dies in the Northridge earthquake)
We were discussing movies on the way home and realized I had never seen Party Girl with Parker Posey (who I love) and so it seems that I need to catch up on lots of movies with librarians in them!
