12) If you threw a movie theme party, describe how you would do it. The costumes, decorations, food, etc.
Tina: If I were to throw a movie theme party I would have to pick The Great Gatsby. I would have the invitations hand delivered. My guests would be picked up in 1920's vintage cars. The party would be in Napa, CA. In a white outdoor tent with chandeliers. We would start with a reception with live entertainment before a sit down dinner. The waiters would be dressed in 1920's style clothing. The waitresses would be dressed as flappers. The menu would consist of comfort food. Nothing over the top just delicious. Followed by dessert. And lots of champagne of course!
Me: Count me in...
13) What are some films that are widely loved that you couldn't care less about?
Tina: Try as I might I do not care for silent films. Not any movie in particular all of them.
Me: I've only seen a handful of silents but I would like to see some more.
14) Who’s the biggest film fanatic that you know? Besides yourself of course.
Tina: cannot for the life of me think of one person who is a film fanatic. All my friends love movies!
Me: cool!
15) And finally who are some of your favorite film characters?
Tina: Scarlett O'Hara, Stella Dallas, Holly Golightly, Atticus Finch,
Me: Can't go wrong with any of those characters.
Well that wraps up another guest for this month. I like to thank Tina for accepting my invite to come aboard and I think she did an awesome job.
