(Can you guess tonight's movie?)
THE original suggestion was a simple one. PerHaps we can have AN end-of-summer barbecue for our residenT yOung thespians. They're here every Friday anyway. Maybe we can watch a Movie, too.

We set up the big screen outdoors to watch the musical melodrama that set the theme for the night:

Have you guessed yet which movie we watched?

Okay, those pics are really cute and what a fun idea…but…I’d rather get a hammer put through my forehead than EVER have to hear that hideous Phantom they used in the movie version sing ever again! What were they thinking with that casting choice?Glad everyone had fun though.

Marta says

Mario,Seriously? I was so pleased with him I actually sat through 300 . . . Ok, maybe his voice could’ve been better, but I liked how “man-ish” it was. 😉
