My Votes for the Critiqees
Published March 05, 2003
Here we go!
Best short series or special: The Forsyte Saga. I enjoyed it tremendously, and I've watched my tape of it again more than once. Good Show, PBS!
Best film: The Hours. Those ladies were fabulous.
Runner up: Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Tolkien Rocks, and the movie was really good.
I thoroughly regret having no opinion on books of 2002. I am pretty sure I have never read a book the year it came out--not once in my life. I gravitate to the old, approved classics. Teachers of literature approve of me.
But maybe I should join the new millenium.

With guys like Grisham or King, I usually wait 'til their books appear as remaindered copies in the bookstores - which tends to put me two to three years behind. (Recently started reading King's Hearts In Atlantis,/I>, for instance, after finding it on the bargain shelves at Borders.)
Maybe Oprah has the right idea when she decided to pick the classics for her new & Improved book club.
I guess I'm not the only one who's stuck in the literary past.
It's cheaper, though, too...You can find all the books you want at a used book store.

i'm the same way with books... the only book i've read which was released recently was the newest John Grisham book.
peace.
