-
- Hmm.... Well, MiLady, I'll be more than happy to stand and help
- defend your honor! Princess Bride is one of my favorite movies..
- favorite comedy movies... ;) Although a love story it is, I think
- stories like Ladyhawke and Beauty are much more ... "love" ... stories
- than PB.
- And of course, nobody even _mentions_ " " any more.
- Ooops! I just did!
-
- Quickly the Archer flips back his cloak and pulls a strange looking
- arrow from his quiver! Drawing his bow, and launching his arrow straight
- up, he manages to cross several lines of text and snag "Love Story" and
- drag it down and out of the preceding paragraph. He then stuffs
- it back into his pack, never to be seen again.
-
- "As I was saying..."
-
- >I also loved Beauty and the Beast (it got to Europe only before this
- >Christmas - we've seen in twice now... ).
-
- Ahh! Well then... have you read a book called "Beauty"? Hmm?? My
- favorite love story in book form... and, as near as I can tell,
- one of the models for the composite story of the movie... It's
- just one of the absolute best retellings of the Beauty story I
- have ever read.... <snif>
