Feeling Sad
Sad News of Mr. Peter Boyle passing away
Mr. Peter Boyle passed away recently.
I enjoyed him in Mr. Gene Wilder's "Young Frankenstein" which seems like only yesterday.
In the movie "The Dream Team" (with Mr. Michael Keaton and Mr. Christopher Lloyd) he made us laugh at people who've gone a bit over the edge from stress...haven't we all felt like that at one time or another?
These are two of my favorite movies. I've never watched "Everyone Loves Raymond" but I understand it's a good series.
I'm slow to warm up to series. I'm just now appreciating "Frasier" by buying the series on dvd. It never fails to make me smile. It's one of John's favorites as well.
John and I watch movies over and over because of the emotion they evoke, you know how you're going to feel...there's no surprises like watching something new. An old movie is like a warm comforting blanket that makes you feel good.
Everytime we watch one of Mr. Boyles' performances a part of me will be sad that he has passed away, yet left behind this smile for us and future generations.

Debi - like you, I'm slow to warm up to a series, but"Everybody Loves Raymond" is really good & entertaining. I liked your analogy about an old movie being like a warm, comforting blanket - so true! I watch the same ones time & again for the wonderful feelings/emotions they evoke.
Take care, & "hi" to John! Jon

I normally like things better in reruns. Somehow I don't feel the obligation to watch with reruns as I do with first runs.

Debi, OH you have to watch "Everybody loves Raymond".. not only for Peter Boyle, but for the wonderful chemistry that they all have... I pretty much never miss it... Thanks for dropping by my journal... Lisa
