Movies I'd like to watch

If I can, I would love to watch these movies:

1. Public Enemy with Johnny Depp
2. Inglorious Past with Brad Pitt for historical (sort of) entertainment
3. All About Steve with Sandra Bullock for the laughs. I saw her 'The Proposal'
4. Julie and Julia because Meryl Streep is my favorite actor
5. Time Traveller's Wife for its story
6. The Informant with Matt Damon, because he's a favorite


In the Making Movies:

1. The Inception with Leonardo di Caprio (he's going to be emaciated in this film, says the producers)
2. Shutter with Di Caprio
3. Iron Man
4. Alice in Wonderland with Johnny Depp
5. Dark Shadows with Johnny Depp

Aside from this, and I was not...

(On the background is our stereo set which my father himself assembled with his own two hands). My grandad was a classic old schooled man. He was served, literally by everyone: my grandmother, his daughters, his sons, including us the grandchildren. His word was the law. No one dared disobey his wishes. That was his role in our patriarchal clan. The thing is all the men in this family acted like kings in a fiefdom, expecting everyone serving at their pleasure. I believe this mentality is now a thing of the past. Though, I am not really sure. Is it? I don't know if this is good or what. The system of change has changed. My grandfather's era was contrived. Nothing was spontaneous. Expectations were clear and expected to be fulfilled. You are told to do something? There is no way you will not acquiesce. My father's was that caught be...
