Dirty Rotten Scoundrals: I have mixed feelings about this movie, it was funny, but so many times funny crosses into terrible awkwardness and makes me want to stop watching; I like Steve Martin but I didn't really enjoy him in this movie. Michael Caine was great as usual, however in this movie he lookes older than he currently looks. I did like how this movie ended however.

White Christmas: I don't know if this movie is really all that amazing, however it is a holiday classic and tradition. It's funny how so many "Christmas" movies really have little to do with the holiday. White Christmas is still an enjoyable movie with great song and dance numbers. I wish it would snow again even though we had a white Christmas.
The Italian Job: First off I wish to clarify that this in not the more recent version with Mark Walberg, etc. this is the original movie with Michael Caine. I imagine you weren't aware that there was an original version, nor was I, I got this version by mistake from the library. This movie really is rather dreadful. The ending was appalling, the plot was weak, I would recommend just passing on this movie all together unless you want to see it for the beautiful scenery in the Alps.

The Muppet Christmas Carol: I think this is probably the best version of the Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens that you could ever see. Michael Caine is Scrooge, Kermit the Frog is Bob Cratchett while Gonzo and Rizzo narrate. This is a very unique version and very funny.
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir: This movie is interesting, and I found similarities in it to Just Like Heaven with Reese Witherspoon. It was an interesting movie but not really one that lingers with you. It's a nice movie but not one that I'd go back to time and time again.
Mrs. Miniver: This movie was one of the many war propaganda movies, movies meant to make the people who saw it think that the enemy was kniving and evil, that this was their war to protect the country they loved. Mrs. Miniver takes place in a small little village in England and is about how the people in this town, focusing on Mrs. Miniver and her family, make their efforts to keep their England safe. I think the women's movment towards equality of the sexes got a boost durring the war, wartime women could not afford to be weak, fainting things, they had their families and homes to protect.
