waterloo bridge

"Roy Wetherby, a Canadian Solider in London on furlough, falls in love with Myra, unaware that she is a prostitute. She accepts his proposal of marriage just prior to his being shipped to the front. They visit his uncle, mother and sister for a weekend in the country. Myra realizes she cannot escape her past and, after Roy leaves, tells his mother about herself. Back in London she is killed in an air raid."(1931 orginal version of "waterloo bridge")

"A simple tale of love gained and lost, it tells the story of a chance encounter between a dancer and officer during World War I who meet on Waterloo Bridge during an air raid - with tragic results. The film has many admirerers despite its sad ending - mainly due toVivien's strong performance as the ballerina turned prostitute."

I was in LA this weekend.

Hi everybody, I just got back from LA around half an hour ago. I went to Malibu to see my sister's mother's ranch. (Half-sister). I went to Beverly Hills (hotel), and Santa Monica (sister's house). Haha, I have never noticed the amount of synagouges in LA! There were like 3 bar mitzvahs going on in my hotel last night. My dad asked this random boy attending the bar bitzvah like, "Who's it's for, How many people attending, where did you come from.." and the boy answered all of them. I saw him again this morning when we were pumping gas at the gas station across the street from the LA Tolerance musuem (Holocuast, if you aren't aware.) Wiesenthal centre. There's a store behind the gas station, or next to it... The bed I slept in , in the hotel was sooo comfortable.

Hahaha in Beverly Hills, a funny thing happened. Well you know how people think the folks in Laguna are rich and snobby?
LMAO this is hillarious!!!!......OMGZ!@ Well obviously people don't know their shit. Okay We were in Beverly Hills, checking out and waiting for my dad outside, the lobby, our car was in the front. And this girl who was from the bar mitzvah, and looking at my outfit (I was wearing a tye-die, shirt, a polka-dot skirt, and black tights.) and She got into a Mercedez (driven by a female), and behind her was another Mercedez. The other mercedez the guy was unpacking lugage for his 4 other family members or friends into another car. Well the first mercedez with the female driver, exclaimed ,"Can you please move your car a little bit, so I can back out?" Well in about 60-70 seconds without really looking back she starts to back out, well he wasn't totally behind her, she had almost enough room, so she starts backing out and is like going to hit him. And i'm like WTF? This was pretty hillarious, and she comes out of her car again, and exclaims "Please move your car". So he backs out , more, she backs out and turns around into the direction the other guy was in, and almost hits him AGAIN!












BTW:"here’s the scoop: the students are not real students, casting agents scouted out malls in the OC area looking for hot young beautiful creatures. most of these kids aren’t even in highshool - they have rough story lines to follow (hence the need for writers) and most of them didn’t know eachother - prior to the show - they’re not actors, rather, real people in staged scenarios…now pass it along".credit from
