Jimmy Kimmel’s X-mas Message
Home Alone after 35 years
After 35 years, Home Alone holds up. It turns out I had never seen the original movie, only the sequel. The film is cute. Macaulay Culkin delivers a spectacular performance for a nine-year-old. If you want to enchant your kids, this is a wonderful holiday movie. I watched an interview with Macaulay Culkin recently on Jimmy Kimmel Live; as an adult now 45 years old, he comes across as charming. He watches the film with his young kids, and they are presently not old enough to realize that the kid in Home Alone is actually their father.
Forrest Gump after 30 years
Recently, I saw a clip from Forrest Gump, and this inspired me to watch the film again. I had these memories of Forrest Gump: he’s not very smart, and he’s best friends with a Black man who he later goes into a fishing business with in the South of the United States. The film holds up even after 30 years. I found it interesting that I had no memory of the love story that is at the center of the entire film.
Jimmy Kimmel is back on air
I watch Jimmy Kimmel opening monologue regularly. I am glad that ABC put him back on air and did not cave to the threat’s of Trump and the FCC chair Brendan Car.
Never was I so excited to watch his show. I was filled with anticipation. How would he address public about what happened.
See for yourself.
