Edit: I asked the person who sent the photo if she had rights to the photo and if I was allowed to post it. As it turns out. She didn’t take it and it belongs to a professional photographer. SIGH. Don’t do that shit.
The weather in the ATL sucks and Sunday nights are all super late for me but if I can get up at the butt crack on Monday and the weather is decent, I will be out of the Tamara Tattles office most of the day. Apologies in advance for slow moderations of first time commenters and slow news stories. Bethenny will be on Steve Harvey today and I am literally three housewives behind from promoting folks on that show.
I’ll get to it.
I’d also like to let everyone know I appreciate you. I’ve gotten a lot of really sweet emails about how much you love the site and it makes you not feel so alone. I assure you that feeling is reciprocated. I love y’all to the moon and back. Thanks. Except for TeeCee. She’s just a cunt.
So to avoid a brownnosefest. I’ll throw out topic. What is your favorite movie?
I’d like to say something really artsy fartsy like, you know that one about Halston with the fabulous director. But I’m sort of slutty so I am going to go with 9 1/2 Weeks. Was is a cinematic masterpiece? No. But I was young and running hot so I loved it.
🙂
Favorite Movie??? Really, Tamara? As in only one? I can’t just choose one… I have several. I will have to sleep on this one and get back to you tomorrow. This task is nearly impossible for me!
Ahhhh, 9 1/2 weeks with Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger…that WAS a hot movie. The refrigerator scene is burned into my brain. Mickey Rourke was so hot until he fucked up his face with all that lousy plastic surgery. Poor guy. Kim Basinger is STILL hot and probably always will be. I kind of hate her for that.
I have so many favorite movies, I can’t really decide, but I will throw out there Braveheart. I love Mel Gibson, I am a die hard Mel Gibson fan, and yes, I know he is a totally asshole. He’s still a fantastic actor, producer, screenwriter and director, in spite of his rage issues. I can separate the genius from the asshole, fortunately. He was also one of the best looking guys I’ve ever seen when he was younger. I saw a picture of Mel in a book one time, and I literally gasped out loud, THAT’s how good looking he was. I’d never had that happen before, and he doesn’t even know I’m alive 🙁
Well, he WAS a great actor, producer, screenwriter, and director until he got blackballed from Hollywood because he pissed off the wrong people.
I’m not a Mel Gibson fan (even pre-dating Sugar Tits) but I finally watched Apocalypto & it’s an amazing film. It’s entirely in a Mayan dialect with english subtitles & only native american/Mayan actors. Mel Gibson doesn’t act in it but he wrote, produced & directed it. I avoided watching Apocalypto for a long time because it sounded boring but my uncle made me watch & I’m so glad he did. It’s long but very exciting & emotional. Definitely my favorite Mel Gibson film.
Fatal Attraction – I so love a mentally challenged female! Especially the intelligent ones;) ( p.s. Really, I love the hot sex scenes)
Have a great Monday TT.
One movie, I also have to that time.
I’ve a favorite for every decade, for my state of mind, if I was ticked off at the world or in love.
Maybe I will decide based on the movies I rewatch.
My oldest favorite might be Birdman of Alcatraz. Love me some Burt Lancaster.
I love almost anything with Al Pacino in it (Godfather #1) Sean Connery in all of his Bond movies and James Spader in Less than Zero. I know all of these men are much older now but they were hot then and still are to me.
Proudly waving my slutty card over here! Iam in a very “lusty” phase right now so i rewatched 9 1/2 Weeks & The Secretary. They kind of are my favs right now…
Otherwise, Iam a cynical romantic girl who still watches Pretty Woman at least twice a year… & I unabashedly LOVE sappy Bollywood movies! *Hanging my feminist head in shame*
I will ALWAYS STOP what I’m doing & watch if I find these movies on:
Scarface
Mommie Dearest
Basic Instinct
The Color Purple
Less Than Zero
Okay… If I can only choose one, it has to be “Thelma and Louise”. It had such a huge impact on me. The first time I saw it, I was on a first date. The ending had me so completely unraveled, that I just asked him if we could skip dinner and that he take me home. And then I called in sick the next day. I just could not believe the choice they made in the end. I loved them and felt like they were my friends. By the way, this guy never called me back for a second date (shocker).
But I see that UF chose five, so if I can pick my four others they would be (in no particular order)
-Say Anything
-Boogie Nights
-Silence of the Lambs
-True Romance
This was tough.
Sounds like your busy tomorrow, Tamara. Have a good day!
And I have been to El Paso (yeehaw!!). I don’t remember it well, but I did spend a weekend there when I was in college.
Side note- I saw 9 1/2 weeks when it came out. Saw it with my then boyfriend… It’s a HOT movie!
OMG, I went on a first date with someone to that movie and I was only 17. He was a couple of years older and I was set up with him by a friend at work. I was so stupid that I did not realize what the movie was about nor did I look into it beforehand. Needless to say I wanted to crawl under the seat. I agree that it is a hot movie but that really ruined it for me. Afterwards I had the guy take me home and he did not get so much as a kiss on the cheek. I wasn’t that attracted to him to begin with so I probably never should have gone out with him to begin with.
Great, you made me remember more I had to add to my list, @Pip. 🙂 Thanks a lot!
I’ve never seen 9 1/2 weeks, but now feel that I must immediately! My fav are:
Goodfellas
A League of Their Own
Big Fish
Gypsy
Sandlot
My Girl
Secretariat (bc I’m in it 3 times clapping during the final race hehe)

Happy Monday to all… Mine is off to a good start because of TT’s “Exception” in today’s post.. Too funny!
Crap had screw up with my phone & didn’t mean to post that first one. Just my luck low on mods today to delete that. And I totally forgot to add “Trading Places”!
Okay… I would not be able to sleep if I did not add the following:
Steel Magnolias
Urban Cowboy
The Green Mile
Shawshank Redemption
THE SOUND OF MUSIC
Oh, and…Escape to Witch Mountain! Bwahaha!
I love so many of your choices!
TT, I feel for you with the weather. That’s the system that hung out over us last week! El Paso. I’ve never been even though I live in Texas. Complete opposite of the state from me. Home of Fort Bliss and Mexican drug lords. I heard it’s pretty though. As of now, my favorite movie is The Sixth Sense. Whenever I need to laugh, my go to is What about Bob?.
Tall order to ask for just one…but I have to admit that The Big Chill stops me from doing any further channel surfing when it’s on. Same for Imitation Of Life.
OMG, Imitation of Life…I LOVE Imitation of Life…such a good movie, and so sad. I always cry.
OMG! “The Big Chill”! Forgot about that movie- it’s up there. Fantastic!
My Favorite Year (1982 Peter O’Toole, Mark Linn-Baker, Lani Kazan) I laugh ’til I pee.. Godfather II enough said!
I’m not a movie enthusiast. I hit my head really hard when I was 20 (TBI) and ever since then, my attention span went from nonexistent to lolololol. Surprisingly, books hold my attention. My favorite book that’s been made into a movie (that I’ve actually read and seen) is Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk.
and I just love you, TT. I’m so glad you were inspired to create this blog and allow us into your world. I love being a small part of it. <3
I have many, but one of the first that comes to mind is … (Okay, I know I may hear some grief because it’s “southern”, but that really has nothing to do with it. And I’m prepared for a tongue lashing from TeeCee for my choice.) To Kill A Mockingbird. As an impressionable young girl, I thought Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch was everything a perfect man should be. Of course, my father was nothing like him and I probably have daddy issues, but that’s another blog – ha!
@Queen. To Kill A Mockingbird is a great movie, so many sub plots. I loved the book too.
I only recently read To Kill a Mockingbird & had to immediately watch the movie. So good!
I love that movie so much I wanted to be Scout and Have a dad just like Atticus.
The scene with the rabid dog still plays in my head.
My daughter would watch with me before she was a reader, I found it cute she would call the movie “Tequila Mockingbird”.
“Tequila Mockingbird” — loved that! Substituting killing with distilled liquor is probably a great general idea anyway. Out of the mouths of babes …. 🙂
I loved the book, too!
Agreed about To Kill a Mockingbird. Usually, movies to rise up to the book, but both are perfection.
Let me apologize in advance …Saturday Night Fever. Tony Manero could gyrate those hips almost as good as Elvis in his early days. 🙂
Me & my mom love to play the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack on car trips & sing along. So much fun!
And, I was a bonafide Bee Gees groupie! Sad, isn’t it?!
No way is loving the BeeGee’s sad. They represent my childhood to me. I loved and still love them. They remind me of roller skating!
I freakin’ loved roller skating. Couldn’t do any of the fancy two-steppin moves but damn if I couldn’t skate hackwards like a pro. 🙂
Backwards, that is.
@FarFrom, I’m an unapologetic BeeGees fan also. It was first comcert I went to- my parents took me. My mom was drooling over Barry & I had my walls covered in Andy Gibb posters! Lol! The BeeGees are iconic & represent a time when our world was much kinder, gentler, relaxed. Ahhh, here’s to the Brothers Gibb & the good old days. May Robin, Maurice & Andy RIP.
@i.just.can’t.
My eyes actually welled up with tears at your post.
The 70’s… It all seems so innocent now. I am a bit verklempt.
@pip, awwww…. At least we have our memories of that wonderful era that we can treasure & hold close to our hearts.
I actually watched some show (can’t remember.. Was documentary on either VH-1 or on CNN when they were doing overview of pop culture by the decades & sometime around when Maurice died) Anyway, there was extensive interview with Barry & evidently he & his kids & nephews/nieces are trying to make a new album of songs that the late brothers wrote–there are supposedly a lot of them left that were never recorded) So, perhaps we have something to look forward to!
I also got teary eyed watching it. I will try to jar my failing memory & see if I can find name of it for you if you’re interested.
Sooo nostalgic!
I still love the Bee Gees! Last year I saw Barry Gibb in concert at the Hollywood Bowl. He was fantastic!
Ca, ok now I’m super jealous of you!
Pip, Ps- I’m super jealous of you too! Read one of your posts somewhere where you said you got to make out with Stephen Tyler?! Color me green with envy! Lol!
Such an extremely talented family each in their own right. Not to mention, very easy on the eyes (swoons). Barry is still fiiine. Cheers to the Gibb family! And ITA, those were some great times.
I just loved Greese and have seen it 1000 times and now my girls love it. But a close 2nd is Sling blade. I saw it on a date. I put a couple of Corona’s in my purse. Opened one up had it sitting on the floor beside my foot so no one would see it. Clumsy me kicked it over it loudy rolled all the way from our back row to the front spilling beer all the way down. A movie I’ll never forget!
On the topic of food, has anyone sampled “unfiltered blonde” yet?
Movies – star wars and Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
Hmmm, top five:
The King and I
An Affair to Remember
Dirty Dancing
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
Remember the Titans
@Tootsie Yes! An Affair to Remember …. one of the best love stories ever. Can you get more classy than Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr? And I still cry at the end.
So do I, every time!
A couple more:
Rear Window
The Usual Suspects
And:
Gladiator
SWAT
The Fast and Furious series
Oh, dear, now I can’t seem to stop. 🙂
The Usual Suspects was so good. I fell in love with Benicio Del Toro from that film. He was so talented. Too bad he threw it all away on crappy movies & partying. Such a waste.
My favorite movie is every single movie mentioned so far! Wow, what great choices and great memories. And-
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Pan’s Labyrinth
Secretary
District 9
In Bruges
In Her Skin
The Departed
My all time favorite movie is Orson Wells ‘The Third Man’. If you’ve not seen it, check TCM, it was on yesterday. Vienna post (perhaps a day or two) WWII and a mans best friend has died. I
Secretary.
My all time favorite are :
Dangerous minds
My girl
My best friends wedding
Scar face
and other contenders I can’t think of at the moment.
I absolutely cannot turn off Steel Magnolias if it comes on. And I bawl my eyes out every time. I adore that movie. Other ones I love include Pulp Fiction, Amadeus, Forest Gump and Shawshank Redemption.
Oh Sam. Steel Magnolias is a great movie. I use so many of their lines like “If you can’t say something nice about somebody, come sit by me.” and “You are evil and should be destroyed.”. I absolutely love those women who are truly there for one another. I can’t believe that I left it off my list and I cry at the end as well.
Yes! I cry every time.
The salsa made me laugh so hard. I cannot pick a favorite movie. It feels like its been so long since I have seen a movie. Lol. An adult movie at least.
Recently I watched all of the shrek movies with my son and he loved them. I watched them with my nephew many years ago so it was fun to watch them with my son. I need to find a vhs player because I have all of the old but good movies from childhood like E.T. I can’t wait to watch with my boys.
But I haven’t seen an adult movie in a long time ir hell even went to eat with adults only in years! Lol.
I forgot that I also like the movie Soul Food and anything with Denzel Washington in it. Old movies would include Bette Davis (anything) and Joan Crawford. I agree with everyone, there are SO many, and TT only asked for one, but it’s hard to pick just one. Lol
Bette Davis in Now, Voyager. One of my favs. I’m always in tears during final scene.
I love me a movie that makes me cry. But also on a Sunday when there’s nothing to do and some random movie I never bothered to watch comes on and it’s actually really good it just makes my day. I am so much easier to please in my older years.
Again, Tarantino movies because I stay entertained every time I watch them.
Blade Runner,
Breakfast at Tiffany’s
Officer and a Gentleman
I know there are more.
OMG I forgot The Big Libowski!
The dude abides.
I’ve been waiting for someone to mention the Big Lebowski. Definitely my all-time favorite film. I’m even a certified Dudeist priest. The dude abides.
A friend came up with a theory that I love: the Big Lebowski is a Southern California dude thrown into the middle of a film noire. It has all the film noire tropes: Mr Lebowski, Maude, Jacky Treehorn, etc.
My son asks me this question all the time and I tell him it’s way too hard to name just one but I used to go with “Gone with the Wind” which seemed to be everyone’s favorite until “Titanic” came along which is also one of my faves. My other all time favorites would be:
A Beautiful Mind
The Help
Best in Show
Drop Dead Gorgeous
About a Boy
This one may seem odd, but here goes…Schlinder’s List. I have a chronic health condition with pain that keeps me homebound 80% of the time for many years. When I am feeling particularly sorry for myself, I watch the movie and remember it could always be a lot worse.
I wasn’t going to comment, but I’ve been reading this blog and comments for 1 week. Even though I am new and have TRIED to post apparent “stupid” things that don’t get put up (admittedly I am not a clever wordsmith,) I have had such an enjoyable week. I feel entertained and agree wholeheartly with some others and don’t feel so isolated.
Hey CottonBall ~ Schlinder’s List is a great movie too! There are just too many great movies to remember to list, but thanks for reminding me of this one.
Hi Cottonball it nice to have fresh thoughts. Welcome! That big jar of salsa at the top makes me want to break out some corn chips and black bean and corn salsa and watch a movie tonight. It’s gonna be storming here nothing much better to do.
Thanks! This afternoon we had golf ball size hail. I hope your weather doesn’t get too bad.
Hi Cotton Ball. It’s a great movie! I recently read an interview of a woman who discovered just a few years ago that her grandfather was Amon Goeth, the SS officer in the movie played by Fiennes. Talk about a shock!
Cottonball,
Schindler’s List was a phenomenal film. The film was black and white and I’ll always remember that little girl walking down the street in the red coat.
The final scene with Schundler’s survivors and descendants visiting his grave in Jeruslaem and placing stones there had me sobbing.
CottonBall, there are several of us, myself included with chronic pain issues who come here to enjoy TamaraTattles blog. So we understand. It’s one of the first things I do after waking up in the morning. I found the blog not too long after I developed CRPS and was pretty much home bound. TT always has interesting posts for me to read and comment on that make me laugh and be able to forget the pain for a while. We try to tell her occasionally how much we appreciate her for it but she’ll accuse us of a brownnosefest like she did above lol. Glad you are enjoying yourself and you’ll get the hang of commenting. Lots of us still say stupid things sometimes. Ask Tamara. She’ll tell you lol.
Don’t get me started–I’ll never stop!
Airplane!!!
Airplane II
Caddyshack,
The Trouble with Harry, The Departed, Charade, The Philadelphia Story, Seems Like Old Times, Foul Play, Sixteen Candles, Young Frankenstein, The Godfather (all of them!), A Streetcar Named Desire…Benji !

I will watch these once a year: Rear Window, Rosemary’s Baby, This Property is Condemned, Bell, Book and Candle, The Grifters, All About Eve, Gosford Park, Working Girl, The Big Sleep, Paper Moon, Blow Out, Dirty Dancing, and there’s probably at least 30 more.
Now voyager
Oh and the shop around the corner
I don’t email you anymore, because I DO like you. I know you are bombarded with emails, and I never really seem to send anything that is fresh.
I’m not saying others are bothering you. Please, I hope no one takes it that way. I thought MY emails might be annoying. I just wanted to let you know that even though I am quiet, I am still your friend.
Reading TT’s posts from the begining re: Parks v. Stanton…..juicy tea….mmhhmmm…is tea juicy? Maybe not but this tea I am reading is…

Auntie Mame
Goodfellas
Apocalypse Now. Or Deer Hunter
Life of Brian
Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Monty Python and the Holy Grail! Can’t believe I forgot that one. One of my top favorite comedies! I can’t help but quote this one from “run away! run away!!” Or “Blue! No yellow!!” if I can’t make a decision. So great. I’ll have to check out a few of your other choices 🙂
Yes, Deer Hunter and Apocalypse Now, absolutely.
Cool Hand Luke
To Kill a Mockingbird
Slingblade
Monger I loved Slingblad too.
Cool Hand Luke! Yes! “I got my mind right, boss”… Use that quote liberally. Lol
I find any opportunity to say “Get mad at dem eggs” too…haha!
Oh! And Casa Blanca!
If I have to pick my favorite movies I have to go with movies I watch every time I see them on t.v. They would be Forrest Gump and Wizard of Oz. I do have plenty of honorable mentions that I love rewatching and yes before anyone says anything I do like movies with a southern flavor. So sue me lol. My other favorites besides FORREST GUMP and WIZARD OF OZ are:
Fried Green Tomatoes Shawshank Redemption The Green Mile
Silence Of The Lambs The Help Avatar E.T.
To Kill A Mockingbird One Flew Over A Cuckoo’s Nest Big Fish
Well damn. WordPress took all my little spaces between my movies away lol. Maybe you can still read them. I didn’t intend for it to be one long movie title. Guess that’s my punishment for picking too many movies. (Quickly takes a seat)
Great choices! I forgot about a few of these! Big Fish and cuckoos nest especially!! These are the movies I make sure all of my friends have seen at least once. My dad made me watch em, so I carry on the tradition. 🙂
Resurrection with Ellen Burstyn, Wise Blood – based on a story by Flannery O’Connor, and Kung Fu Hustle….yeah!!
I LOVE Flannery O’Connor I’ll keep an eye out for Resurrection.

For a dark comedy I always liked ‘The Money Pit’ with Tom Hanks and ‘She-Devil’ with Roseanne Barr.
Am I the only one who likes horror? And I’m not talking vampire movies. I prefer ghosts & sometimes aliens. I also love highbrow horror like Pan’s Labyrinth, etc.
Right now my favorites are the Paranormal Activity series. And I’m always looking for suggestions…
I’m such a puss I can’t watch them. The last one I watched was Blair witch and I got so scared I wouldn’t go to the bathroom without my husband or the dog at night for a week.
Lady Cocotte, I also love horror movies. All kinds, but not most slasher films. A few suggesions as you asked – I tend to just watch movies and don’t read reviews first (sometimes not even the trailers,) so don’t go into all of them expection too much!
Let the Right One In (2008) -and the remake- Let Me In (2010)
Sitr of Echos
Shutter
What Lies Beneath
Dragonfly
Insidious 1 and 2
Sinister (some gore)
The Conjuring
1408
Session 9 (not my favorite, but lots love it)
mama is a really good one. Love Jessica Chastin.
CottonBall, thanks so much for the recs. Let the Right One In is great (I’ve only seen the original version so I’ll have to check out the remake). Also love the Conjuring. But there’s still quite a few movies on that list I haven’t seen. >
If you like ghost and paranormal, look at a lot of movies that star Julianne Moore.
I am not a big Horror Film fan, but I have to say that there are two that come to mind that scared the living crap out of me.
“House of a Thousand Corpses” by Rob Zombie. Holy crap- it was done so well. What a crazy movie!
The other is “The Thing” by Joun Carpenter.
Both really scary. “The Thing” is more horror/ suspense, while “House of a Thousand Corpses” is more in your face horror.
Both definitely worth checking out if you are into that kind of thing.
Please note: I am talking about “The Thing” by John Carpenter that was done in the early 80’s (I think?). Not the shitty remake that was done several years ago. The one staring “Kurt Russell”. That’s the good one.
I’m much more of a suspense/horror gal so I just set the dvr for The Thing. Thanks! >
Lady Cocotte ~ I don’t watch much horror either because I am a wuss, but I watched ‘The Others’ with Nicole Kidman and it was good and scared the dickens out of me too. Try it, you might like it 🙂
Julie & Julia has stood the test of time for me. I think it was the first movie based on a blog.
Nora Ephron was 67-69 yrs. when she wrote and directed this movie, that is inspiring for me.
The one and only…..Sound of Music. Best love story ever.
The other half and I went and saw the 50th Anniversary screening of The Sound of Music last night! First time I had seen it on the big screen. It really was amazing.
Mommie Dearest, Gone With the Wind, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, Imitation of Life, The Help, The Whiz, Steel Magnolia’s & Forest Gump are my all time favorites.
Gone with the wind, steel Magnolias, Breakfast Club, Shawshank redemption, and Dirty Dancing.
Reign Over Me is a great movie and I sob uncontrollably every time.
I find that I am way more emotional since becoming ‘mom’ nearly 6 years ago. And I generally avoid movies that make me cry now, if I suspect it will… watching is emotionally draining I am way too compassionate.
Away We Go was another one that made me cry unexpectedly, and my husband and I enjoyed.
Well some of you know that I love Bethenny, tonight I tried Skinny Girl Popcorn. It tasted good and was only 25 calories. They told you exactly how long to microwave it for and every kernel popped! I give it a thumbs up. #randomness
Favorite movies: Goodfellas, Nine to Five, Please Don’t Eat the Daisies, LIfeboat, Nashville, Toy Story 3, A Christmas Story, Diabolique, F for Fake
To name a few…
I agree with so many of you… So many great films you have all pointed out:
-One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest. (Brilliant, tragic, heart wrenching).
-Apocalypse Now
-The Dear Hunter
-Goodfellas
-Things to do in Denver when your Dead
And anything by Christopher Guest! My favorite being “Waiting for Guffman” (“You are all BASTARD PEOPLE, That’s what you are and I HATE YOU and your ASS FACE”.)
Corky St. Claire- my favorite comedic character.
If you all liked Best in Show, Spinal Tap, etc. please see “Waiting for Guffman”. It’s brilliant and I am officially moving it into my top five faves.
Ditto on the Guest movies. Everyone should see all them and then join us back here to sing”God Loves a Terrier.”
I’m also a sucker for anything Parker Posey is in Party Girl is SUCH a great movie.
Dazed and Confused is a great one, as well.
I’ve deleted Cat’s advice request and the comments and advised her in email. Let’s not mention it here anymore. I’ve explained to Cat why. The issue is being addressed.
Thank you. I responded before I saw this (sorry). >
I’m gonna add some more 😉
Armageddon – Titanic – Lonesome Dove – Pulp Fiction – Wild at Heart – The Great Lebowski – Whatever Happened to Baby Jane – Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte – To Kill a Mockingbird – What Women Want – The Devil’s Advocate – A Tree Grows in Brooklyn – Cinderella Man – Papillon – Primal Fear – We Were Soldiers – Terminator 2 Judgment Day – A Simple Plan – Platoon – Places in the Heart – Falling Down – Tender Mercies – Bruce Almighty – Stand By Me – Blade Runner – No Country For Old Men – War of the Roses –
To be continued. Just kidding! (I think!)
Unable to pick a favorite movie, I may have awoken in an El Paso motel once with a cowboy named Texas Pete. He was smoking.
Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933) Seriously !! :)))
Emmanuelle (1974)
Amelie (2001)
