Be My Guest - Irene (Question No. 4) Describe the perfect way to watch a classic movie

4. Describe the perfect way for you to watch a classic movie.
That depends:
I love to cuddle up on my couch with one or two cats next to me (or one upon my lap) – and have a big cup of hot black coffee/cappuccino within reach..

And sometimes I have really fun with the girls: we pick a theme/ or movie and celebrate it with funny costumes and beverages and stuff like that.

E.g watching IRMA LA DUCE (1963), where everyone was dressed as one of the characters: I was wearing my green stockings and a green bow in my hair, a friend of mine wore a blonde wig and heart shaped sunglasses, the third one an eye patch and another one a big black moustache. We even made a “flick cap” ourselves.. You see: lots of possibilities.. There was some French food and everyone was having a ball.

Sometime we also claim scenes like the scene from VALLEY OF THE DOLLS (1967) where Neely meets Tony in the sanitarium, which is always a big laugh, because we’re voting for the best performance – that is: the most cheesy one.. *ahem*




“Karaoke movie watching” is also rather popular: Play a DVD with subtitles but no sound. You can play it straight or kind of SINGIN’ IN THE RAIN (1952) “Yes, yes, yes! – No, no, no!” ;”) – and of course you can do your own dialogoues.

Ooh! There's my sweet Mina - ready to leave with me, where ever I will go to! (And secretly praying it won't be the vet..)

Thank you so much for that surprise, Monty!!

Irene, It looks like you are in good furry company while watching your favorite classic films.

You are so lucky to have some fun classic movie friends who like to dress up for your viewing party.

Hihi - thank you Dawn. They're best furry company!!

And: I MAKE my friends do that. ;"D They may decide how much they dress up - but they have to. (even if it is just a beauty spot or something..)
;")

We don't do it that often (because we do not meet soo much) - but when: it's legendary! :")

I love my friends: They accept that I am a bit odd..
