Overboard

Oh, God, reading quotes from Overboard on IMBD reminds me how much I love this movie.

Joanna: Must you watch that THING incessantly?
Grant: Yes, I must. It has a tawdry, escapist quality that sooths my nerves.

A lot of the movie is so over-the-top, and then it has these moments of quiet truth, and... Happy sigh. I want an Overboard icon.

Hee. You're cute. ;)

I love that movie, too. What's up with that?

I haven't seen that in ages, but it is such a great guilty pleasure movie. And Kurt Russell in his prime never hurt anyone's eyes. :D

My God those lines explain it all. I think that was a subliminal message so that when you are channel surfing and come across this movie you HAVE to watch it. I really didn't like it when I saw it in the theaters but I cannot pass it up if it is on TV. My Blue Heaven with Steve Martin and Rick Moranis was like that for my sister. I thought it was an ok movie, she HAS to watch it.

I used to watch that movie with my mom all the time, I don't know where it got to *grumbles*

What would you like to have in the icon?

Oh, I love that film - it's what I'd call a comfort-film :D

It's very silly on one level, but it's such fun and it's actually got quite a lot of deep stuff in it. Yummy.
