Mari Carr's Top Five Favorite Movies
Star Wars series. Not
all of them because I'm sorryβEpisodes 1-3 suck, but anything from the original
franchise (yes, I saw all of them IN the theater) and the newest onesβepisode 7
and Rogue One.
Hidden Figures. It's
new to my faves list, but damn, man, that movie is powerful and beautiful and
wonderful.
You've Got Mail. Spent
Thanksgiving weekend doing a "T. Hanks Giving" marathon and while I realize
there's always a lot of hype around Sleepless in Seattle, You've Got Mail is WAY
better. I meanβ¦Tom and Meg actually TALK prior to the last five minutes of the
movie in this one!
Harry Potter series.
All of them. Know every single line. Honest! AlsoβI never watch one without a
wand in my hand.
Overboard. Greatest
movie ever! Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell, a yacht and mini-golf. Hollywood magic.
James Compton is a man of two worlds. For half the year, he's Seth's oldest
boy, working with his family and the horses on Compass Ranch. The other half,
he's Jamie, a daring smokejumper on the West Yellowstone Squad. Those two halves
make him feel whole, happy, satisfied. Until he meets his boss's daughter, Ivyβ¦
Ivy Wagner's life should be complete. College degree in hand, she's excited
to embark on her career as a large-animal vet. Add in the attention of one very
sexy James Compton, and her future should be all sunshine and steamy shared
showers. However, a shattering loss in her past ensures Ivy will never date a
smokejumperβ¦no matter how perfect for her James may be.
As the couple grows closer, it's clear they're headed for a day of reckoning.
Ivy can't lose someone she loves to a raging wildfire, and James may be
incapable of giving up a vital part of himself, of living half a life.
When James faces his own loss, the pair are forced to confront their
individual demons. What will they willingly let go ofβ¦and what will they choose
to fight for?
