Everyone of these would be considered a favorite of mine as well! You are now considered my long lost sister!

Wow. So MANY wonderful choices! Ah - Les Miserables! And then, Oh! The Count of Monte Cristo! And then, Anne of Green Gables - the one girly movie that makes tears stream (and I mean STREAM!) down my face. Sigh. You've motivated me to re read and re watch.

Angela~ I can always use more sisters. :)

Carole~ Yeah, I spent all morning watching/listening to Les Mis videos on YouTube instead of cleaning the house. They give me the chills. I really need to read that one again. I'm certainly in the mood now. :)
