My husband and I subscribe to Netflix for most of our movie-watching. (However, the luxury of sitting down to a movie comes to a grinding halt when our dinner cruise season starts in late spring.) Perhaps the afternoon was particularly dreary, but I let it get me down. This called for a radical, conscious effort. So I went online and ordered four upbeat flicks. Here's our list:
1) Driving Miss Daisy (1989)
2) Chariots of Fire (1981)
3) It's a Beautiful Life (2004)
4) Brother Sun, Sister Moon (The story of St. Francis of Assisi, 1972)
