Who's Blogging  |
"The Parent Trap." (Either the 1961 G-rated original with Haley Mills or the 1998 PG remake with Lindsey Lohan.) Twins separated at birth rediscover each other and bring their parents together again. Favorite line: "I have a brilliant-beyond-brilliant idea!"
Dramas
"October Sky." Inspiring story of a very determined kid (played by Jake Gyllenhaal) who learns to build rockets. Rated PG for some language and sensuality. Favorite line: "Let them have outer space. We've got rock-and-roll."
"Field of Dreams." Kevin Costner builds a baseball field in his backyard for 1920s ballplayers. After the PG-rated movie, ask Dad if he wants to go outside and play catch. Favorite line: "It reminds us of all that once was good, and it could be again."
"Rudy." A feel-good PG movie about college football. It proves you're never too small to achieve a dream. Actor you might recognize: Sean Astin. Favorite line: "I've been ready for this my whole life!"
Musicals
"The Sound of Music." Julie Andrews and this G-rated movie are a few of our favorite things. You won't be able to resist singing along. (By the way, this film is airing this weekend on ABC Family.) Favorite line: "You brought music back into the house. I had forgotten."
"Yankee Doodle Dandy." Oscar-winning 1942 tale of composer-singer-dancer George M. Cohan. Ignore that it's black-and-white, and soak up the history and terrific music. Actor you might recognize: James Cagney. Favorite line: "My mother thanks you, my father thanks you, my sister thanks you, and I thank you."
