Princesses & Thieves

Last night, Daddy and I watched The Italian Job and Princess Diaries. Strange combination, right? *grins* The Italian Job is honestly my favorite movie ever. I mean, I have a bunch of movies that I love, but this one I just... adore. Playing life smart and not hurting others unnecessarily is something I can definitely get behind. With Princess Diaries, I think this may be my biggest exception to the rule that "The book is always better than the movie." I cannot, and I mean cannot, get through one of Meg Cabot's books. But because my best friend loved this movie, we watched it practically every time I went over to her house for the first year after it came out and I knew it well enough to quote pretty much the entire movie. Actually, I can do that with The Italian Job as well. Hmm. I need something better to do with my life than memorize song lyrics and movie quotes... *laughs*
