Judy (2019) Review

C0AA3A51-FB15-4411-8F46-3B6FE6D2B900

Legendary Judy Garland was struggling for work and money so in 1968 arrives in London to perform in many sold out concerts. Showing the struggles of an icon and what she was willing to do for her children.

Poster: Judy (2019)

A second poster has been released for the up and coming film about Judy Garland starring Renee Zellweger. I actually think I like this one even more than the first poster that was released (here).

Due for release in the UK on 4th October 2019.

Poster: Judy (2019)

As you are probably already aware I adore musicals and Judy Garland is in one of my all time favourite films. That being A Star is Born. Along with that Renee Zellweger is also in one of my all time favourites Chicago, which is a musical as well.

So Renee Zellweger as Judy Garland in the up and coming film Judy is something that excites me. Then we get this poster which is just absolutely gorgeous!

Musical Moments – Razzle Dazzle (Chicago)

I had some fantastic news last Tuesday . . .

7B89A27F-30C7-4614-A10C-9FA43636D769

I got a place in the Chicago Marathon for 2019. So come October I will heading back to the US to take part in my second international marathon and getting my 3rd star for the Marathon Majors. So what better way to celebrate this news than having Razzle Dazzle as today’s musical moment?

So if anyone would like to recommend anything I need to do when in Chicago please comment below to help me plan my trip!

And All That Jazz!

D33902E7-D108-4613-8F74-757E98D08183

Jerry Maguire is a very successful sports agent, but when his morals get the better of him his ephinay costs him his job. Having to venture out on his own as an independent agent he must battle for the only athlete that stays with him in American Footballer Rod Tidwell and also falling in love with Dorothy Boyd who sticks by him through it all.

Top 10: Bridget Jones Quotes

bridget-jones-quotes-4_zpsgg3shbky

With the up and coming release of Bridget Jones’s Baby I thought I would put together a list of my favourite quotes from the previous two films, Bridget Jones Diary and Bridget Jones: Edge of Reason. The first film I remember not enjoying when I first saw it but grew on me in time for Edge of Reason. Not forgetting starting my love for Colin Firth, oh Mark Darcy!

The thing with Bridget Jones  is that it takes a pretty normal woman and that means everyone will be able to relate with some of the stupid things she says and/or does. It is very British at times as well, which just makes it even better. I read the two books many years ago, they really are written in such a fantastic way!
