- Who would play you in the movie of your life, and why? Hmm, my first thoughts were not who I'd like to play me but who I wouldn't. Nothing to do with her acting skills, I just don't like Melissa McCarthy's tendency of playing the fat chic who is the butt of just about every fat joke known to mankind.
- Would would play your significant other? Now this question required no thought whatsoever. Who else but .... John Barrowman?
- What would the movie be called? Ooh, now there's a question and one I'll have to give some more thought to. Hmm! How about ... Gifted Children Of Fortune in reference to the belief that the rhyme ring-a-ring-a-roses (believed to be about plague) is in fact based on a Pagan myth which cites "Gifted children of fortune have the power to laugh roses, as Treyja wept gold."
Now for who to tag?
Knowing how much they also love movies I'm going with Kelly@ Kelly's Thoughts & Ramblings along with LL Cool Joe @ Joey's Pad but please feel free to join in should you wish, I'd love to know about the movie of your life.
The last post done before my recent illness. I shall be back with reviews done after my illness, including a review of Little Lord Fauntleroy, soon. TT

This looks fun and I love your answers. Hmmm I'll give it a go but the questions look pretty hard to answer really. Maybe I'll read Kelly's first to give me some more ideas! Ha.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your illness. I enjoyed reading your post - fun.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Love love, Andrew. Bye.
Oh, this does look fun and I like your answers. In fact, I think I'll bump what I had planned for tomorrow to a later slot and have a go at it. It's gonna take some thought, so I'm off to work on that....
ReplyDeleteBTW, I'm one of those who thought the "ring around the rosey" rhyme did come from the plague era, thinking pockets of poseys/flowers would help ward it off. Interesting to learn otherwise.
Maybe I should clarify that I didn't think poseys could ward off the plague, but that the people then thought it. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've answered the questions and scheduled my post for tomorrow. Even though I don't normally thank people for tagging me, I am on this one. It was fun to do!
Tracy, you did a great job with this--your post is very entertaining!
ReplyDeleteI loved your answers to this Tracy! John Barrowman is brilliant, and always delivered when he was on Doctor Who and Torchwood, and I loved the song you picked too. I see why you said no to Melissa McCarthy, I think she's brilliant, but like you, I don't like the fact she was shoehorned into the 'funny fat girl role' because she's so much more! - Tasha
ReplyDeleteI see what you mean about McCarthy. She's very funny but the type-casting gets old.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better every day.
Tracy,
ReplyDeleteA great post! I was not familiar with
Jimmy Nail, and appreciated his song
very much and I can understand your
admiration- and respect for him.
I am looking forward to Kelly's and
LL Cool Joe's posts.

John Barrowman as Torchwood's Captain Jack – oh yes, me too! Or David Tennant as Alec Hardy in Broadchurch. :)
ReplyDeleteA very fun and interesting post.
ReplyDeleteHopefully the world will nat take a turn for the worse so that your life story tuns into a post apocalyptic tale :)
A movie of my life would be so boring lol
ReplyDeleteFor What It's Worth

ReplyDeleteOkay it's done! I enjoyed doing it, thanks. :)
