Just the two of you at a secluded lakeside cabin...

Posted: 8/14/04 at 8:02pm

You and a platonic friend house sit for the weekend at a secluded lakeside cabin.

The owner said there are no videos in the cabin and there is no cable reception but there is a VCR. It's 50 miles to the nearest convenience store but they rent videos. You stop there on the way to cabin to rent a video Only 1 rental is allowed to non-locals and you must pay $100.00 deposit.

Here are the only 6 videos in the store from which you can choose.

1. Bridge Over the River Kwai
2. Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
3. The Magnificent Seven
4. les parapluie de Cherbourg
5. Moulin Rouge
6. Pulp Fiction

Which one would you select?

Why would I be with a platonic friend at a secluded cabin in the first place?

Can Flowery come along and block your view with her crazy Shakalaka-ing?

For anyone who has never seen The Umbrellas of Cherbourg - PICK THAT! I love that so much. It has one of the most heart-breaking endings. And Catherine Deneuve...What can I say.

It's a musical too.

I love Flowery, but I don't want a girl dancing for me. Find me a guy to Shakalaka in front of my view.

I'd be too busy ensuring that we weren't platonic by the end of the weekend to bother with a stupid movie.
