Two conservative women talking about politics.
And here they are at a rally in DC together.
Women: this is what you do in order to attract men.
And fire guns. Men like guns.
Movies for women to learn about men
By the way, I have been making up a list of movies for a young lady I really like.
Here’s what I have so far:
- Rules of Engagement (Samuel L. Jackson)
- Bella
- Henry V (Kenneth Brannagh)
- The Lives of Others
- United 93
- Taken (Liam Neeson)
- Cinderella Man
- The Blind Side
- Cyrano de Bergerac (Gerard Depardieu)
- Amazing Grace (Ioan Gruffudd)
- Gettysburg
- We Were Soldiers
- Stand and Deliver
- Blackhawk Down
- The Pursuit of Happyness
- High Noon
She is sort of learning more about what men are supposed to be like and how to take care of them. You know what… lately, I have been thinking of what it is like when a woman really understands a man and supports him in being a good man. It really is a wonderful thing.
Add to the list:
-Glory
-Band of Brothers (mini-series—not a big fan of the politics of Spielberg and Hanks, but I think they did a great job with this series-more importantly, if you get a DVD series that has the interviews with the actual soldiers, even beter)
-Twelve Angry men (when all others were ready to take the easy way out, one man held fast to finding the truth–courage of a different sort)
-To Kill a Mockingbird (Gregory Peck’s portrayal of Atticus Finch projected quiet manliness and courage)
Balls of Fury (just kidding)
I haven’t seen Bella, but from what I’ve heard, it also gives her an idea of what you think is important in a woman’s character. I think recommending movies is a good way to suggest to another something about one’s personality and beliefs. Cool idea.

I’ll add High Noon to the list.
For The Count of Monte Cristo, the book is much better, although it is a good movie. The movie just doesn’t do it justice – everything happens too fast. But it’s one of my favorite books.
