Watching a movie ... To forget the bad weather !
When I like a movie, I can watch it again and again without ever getting tired of it, and until knowing each speech by heart!
Yesterday I watched for the umpteenth time an old movie to make me feel better (I hate the rain!)
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
At the head of a terrorist group, a man known as The Phantom seeks to pit the European nations against each other to sell his weapons.
Faced with the imminent threat of a major conflict, Queen Victoria decides to form the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, composed of unusual characters. Led by the famous adventurer Allan Quatermain, we also find Tom Sawyer, a member of the U.S. Secret Service, the chemist Mina Harker, Rodney Skinner (The Invisible Man), the immortal Dorian Gray, Dr. Henry Jekyll (and his double Hyde) and Captain Nemo. Embarking on the Nautilus to Venice, they must thwart the dark plans of the Phantom …
Dracula, Dorian Gray, Captain Nemo ... All these characters from unavoidable literary works, these characters that I love and with whom I escaped whole nights ...
What a great idea to have them together! I always spend a good time watching this adventure. Fantasy with a touch of humor and romance... In my opinion it's the perfect recipe!
What is your favorite movie ? =)

I'm sorry I thought 'umpteenth' is a mis-spelt word. I am sorry about that.

A speech is like an oration.
