As I pondered this month’s Learning at the Movies theme, I thought of a few of my own “rules” I’ve developed about movies: Pretend there is no Godfather III The first two Godfather movies were awesome and made a huge impression on me.

This is always a slightly sad day for me: I am quite sure I have never had a November I was anxious to have reach an end. Yet I do say “slightly” for November is such a great teacher, and I know that not ending the spirit of November is completely up to me.
