movie-time

What movie did you see when you were young that has shaped your life? Mine: “The Sound of Music.” Perhaps that should embarrass me, but it’s the simple truth.

It’s a tie for me between “Journey to the Center of the Earth” and “Swiss Family Robinson.” I seldom got to the theater when I was a kid (too poor), but these two I saw on the big screen. Really exciting.

Jaws.

I was 12 or so.

I don’t swim in the ocean anymore. Ever.

And if I’m being perfectly honest, I even got nervous in a swimming pool for a couple of years after that movie.
