No--please feel free to laugh at me--it was "The Family Man" with Nicolas Cage and Tea Leoni. Kind of a reverse "It's a Wonderful Life"--the story of a man who sees how great his life would have been if he'd done the right thing.

But I'm usually all over the black and whites: "The Bishop's Wife." "Meet Me in St. Louis." "Boys Town." "The Bells of St. Mary's." "National Velvet." All of those come out at Christmas, and I get all weepy. (I even get misty with "The Muppet Christmas Carol.")

I just watched "The Family Man." I adore Nicolas Cage ever since "Face Off," and I love Tea Leoni ever since "Spanglish."

Basically, if Nicolas Cage is in a movie, I want to see it.

With all of this talk of decorating, I came across a random thought. Isn't it ironic that we cut down live trees at Christmas time, killing them, bringing them out of nature, only to stand them up in our homes and water them, pretending that they are alive.

Party Pooper. I finally bought a faux tree last year. It is still in the box.

Yes it is. I used to insist on a "real" tree for years. And, I always felt bad for the ones standing there in the lot all alone on Christmas Eve..the ones no one bought.
Now I have fake ones, and I don't have to worry so much about the ones in the lot, because I don't go there and I try not to look when I pass by. IF I did have a "real" one again, it would be the kind you can plant later--with roots still attached.

I've been brainwashed to believe they are fulfilling their Xmas destiny.
That they would not be happy otherwise.
