Sliding Doors

Q&A Sunday: Favorite Movie

October 16, 2016 by Mary

One of my favorite topics… movies! I love movies, and Vicki asked,

What is your favorite movie?

That’s an easy question. Hands down, I have one favorite movie. You’ve probably never heard of it.

Sliding Doors.

slidingdoorsYou know it? Didn’t think so.

It came out my freshman year of college and my best friend and I went to see it together. We’d only met a couple times at that point and we have some very entertaining stories around that movie. I’m fairly sure Sliding Doors is one of the reasons we became best friends.

But anyway… the movie is an indie Gwyneth Paltrow film about a woman who gets fired and on the way home her life splits into two different scenarios, divided by a pair of… Sliding Doors. In one story, she catches the train. In the other, she misses it.

It’s the ultimate question we all ask…

What if?

What I loved about the movie is that it gave me hope. It made me believe that no matter what if, everything works out in the end exactly the way it was supposed to. I love movies that make me feel that way.

Whenever I have a bad day, or am in a funk, or just want to smile, I watch Sliding Doors. It’s my go-to movie when I need a pick me up.

But, when you find it on Netflix and watch it, I’m warning you… There will be a moment in the movie where you’ll want to yell, just like my best friend did in a theater full of people, “This movie sucks!” But stick with it. I promise, you won’t regret it.

Thanks so much, Vicki, for your question! If you have a question, send me an email (mary (at) maryethompson (dot) com) with Q&A in the subject, or post it in the comments below, and I’ll answer your question right here on the blog!

He was the one that got away. Ran away really. But He was the one that got away. Ran away really. But he came back. Almost twenty years later. With a teenager. Wanting another chance.

Ten people were taken from my city over the weeken Ten people were taken from my city over the weekend. Ten people who did nothing wrong. The person who took their lives was filled was hate and took it out on innocent people. #BuffaloNY is the City of Good Neighbors. I didn't know those ten people, but I feel their loss like the rest of my city does. We are all neighbors, and we all hurting. 

My thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of Aaron Salter, Ruth Whitfield, Pearl Young, Celestine Chaney, Roberta Drury, Heyward Patterson, Margus Morrison, Andre Mackneil, Geraldine Talley, and Katherine Massey; and with the survivors: Zaire Goodman, Jennifer Warrington, and Christopher Braden.
Dating your ex in a small town means everyone know Dating your ex in a small town means everyone knowing your business. Like the fact that he broke your heart. They should all be on my side, right? Too bad he’s bringing an old town hangout back to life. And getting everyone involved. And making all of us fall in love with him.
