“Sleepless in Seattle” I like that because it makes me happy. Behind the veneer of dutiful, encouraging wife is someone who knows the truth but needs to play along for her own sake.Ģ. Hall’s character supports her husband as he tries to bring the congregation back after it loses faith in him. In it, she stars as Trinitie Childs, the wife of a Southern Baptist pastor, played by Sterling K. Save Your Soul,” which debuted at Sundance this year and premieres on Peacock and in theaters on Sept. Hall’s latest project is “Honk for Jesus. “I always feel like, I hope I wasn’t a killer in the past.” “Because they start that next episode, and you don’t know so you’re like, man, I’ve been watching ‘Forensic Files’ for hours,” she said in a recent interview, before breaking into a warm laugh. In real life, Hall, who has delivered many more unforgettable comic performances since, is not as animated when watching her favorite television series, the true-crime show “Forensic Files.” She is usually rapt, and sometimes can’t tell when one episode ends and the next begins. Eventually, the killer finds Meeks at the theater, but the rest of the audience gets a stab at her as well. “I think I paid my money like everybody else up in here,” Meeks responds to an annoyed moviegoer.
THE RING IN SLEEPLESS IN SEATLE MOVIE
Send your questions to Joan’s World, c/o the Times, P.O.Many remember the scene in 2000 slasher-comedy “Scary Movie” in which the character Brenda Meeks, played by Regina Hall, is at the movie theater loudly and hilariously talking to the screen. “Jumbo Elephant, Jumbo Elephant/You have such a big long nose/Jumbo Elephant, Jumbo Elephant/It reaches to your toes.” “Jumbo Elephant, Jumbo Elephant/You live in a great big zoo/Jumbo Elephant, Jumbo Elephant/It’s fun to look at you. Many thanks to those who sent me the lyrics to “Jumbo Elephant.” I enjoyed hearing your memories of the song. Otherwise, the recycle bin is a good place for them. The traditional places that used to take them no longer do, but if there’s an organization that wants them, let me know and I’ll spread the word. This question comes up every year, and I don’t have a good answer. I am a recycler, and I would appreciate a reply as soon as you find out. I heard that there may be some senior homes or organizations that can use them for decorations or to make gift tags out of them. Does this ring any bells?ĭo you know of any organization that will take used Christmas cards? 4, I turn to Joan’s World readers for help. It’s doubtful that’s the case, but you might have picked up on the “clues” others have seen in the film.Īs for No. 2, there long has been debate on whether Preminger intended to end “Laura” by having the whole second half as having been a dream. The victim, however, is a man, not a woman.

Not to give too many plot details away, but it involves a murder, blackmail and a dream. 4 for a bit, I found a similar-based film called “The Woman in the Window” (1944). One, you’ve confused the details of the plot two, you are remembering the original “Laura” with an alternate ending three, it was an episode of a television program or four, the movie exists, but I just can’t find it. I couldn’t find the exact film you are thinking of, which brings up a few possibilities. Can you help me or is my memory of this movie “only a dream?” I saw this movie in the 1970s on television and as I recall, it was a black and white movie. It was also a “whodunit.” There were scenes of Laura on a crowded train and, in the end, it turned out that Laura really was “only a dream.” There was no murder because there was no Laura in reality. The movie I am thinking of followed the song very closely. It recently was on television, one of the movie channels, and seeing it reminded me of another movie that I thought was called “Laura,” but obviously I am wrong. The movie “Laura” was made in 1944, directed by Otto Preminger and had an all-star cast.
