While watching a good shoot-em-up movie last night, one CIA operative was explaining to another operative how he knew the MI6 agent loved him, "She only shot me in the chest three times. If she didn't love me, it would have been the head."

The past is still vivid

I enjoy uplifting movies. I enjoy sad movies. I enjoy ecstatically happy movies. I enjoy ponderous movies. I can pretty much enjoy at least one movie in each genre. But, it's the movies (or character's) that really touch people or remind them of their past that they remember the most; all their life sometimes.

I am not emotional. I do not cry during movies. I will occasionally tear up a little, but no out-and-out tears from this girl. I don't cry over much in life to be perfectly honest. Maybe it's my father's genes. "I am very British" I like to say.

But it's my father who teared up at the end of Zero Hour with Dana Andrews.

I think I would too if I lost my own father at a tender age to an airline crash...
