For much of the time I was ignoring Saturday's Yankees-Red Sox game (see post below) I was finally getting around to watching "The Game Plan" with my daughter.
It's that Disney football movie from last year starring Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson, with cameos by a half-dozen of my old football writer friends.
I thought it was a well-executed, family-friendly flick, despite the unavoidable sappiness and predictability.
Last week I watched "Breakfast at Tiffany's" (1961) with Mrs. Watchdog and have decided to move Audrey Hepburn into third place on the list of most attractive female acting appearances in movie history, after Grace Kelly ("Rear Window," 1954) and Jennifer Connolly ("A Beautiful Mind," 2001).
Posthumous congrats!

Where does Eva Marie Saint rank on your list? She was stunning in "North by Northwest"
I'll have to think about that. Tough competition. I've got to deal with Gene Tierney ("Laura"), Halle Berry ("Jungle Fever"), Angela Bassett ("How Stella Got Her Groove Back"), Donna Reed ("It's a Wonderful Life"), Meg Ryan ("When Harry Met Sally"), Lauren Bacall ("Key Largo"), etc., etc.
IMPRESSIVE List Neil.
And I cannot find any fault with your top 3, while also including Peter's choice of EMS on an overall list as well.
I call a list like that ......."women who have made me watch a movie a second time"....(regardless of the overall quality of the movie)....
Of late I have some others knocking on the door....
Naomi Watts ....King Kong.
Charlize Theron....North Country
Jessica Biehl..The Impressionist.
Rene Zellwegger.....Jerry Maguire
Doesn't look at my kind of sports movie. More inclined to the Friday Night Lights and Slap Shots of the world. The Disney formula of the "Based on a True Story........" films has gotten very tiring.
