Hi all. Let's say your life thus far was to made into a movie, and you get to choose the name and the actor/actress who is to play you. Or....you can choose the name of a movie that already exists. What would you name your movie, and who would play your role in it? Mine might be called "Comedy of Errors," or "Happy Chaos." I would choose Bette Midler to play me, or Whoopi Goldberg. Your turn!

Yes Ma'am, I am the director, and about 5 miles from where I live is the perfect location for our beautiful movie. It is a historical village on a lake, with places of business, a church, and homes that have been moved there from the town in which I live, which was established long ago. In that village are a general store, a lumber mill, bank, hotel, blacksmith shop, etc. People still get married in that church. They also have events to give people a taste of how things "were." Candle and soap making, etc. So there you have it, Miss Kitty

Hi Kitty...oh yes! I wish they would make a whole new movie or series about Little House. Lovers and Fools, now that has a ring to it. I think that was my movie, too, in a former stage of life. So, we have Sanaa Lathan playing Miss Kitty in the parlor with Lovers and Fools and Colonel Mustard :D . Yes, I definitely like that! Karen

Hello my friend. Original or not, I'm sure your life would put a whole new spin on The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Who knows? It might do better in the theatres than the original lol. If you think of whom you'd like to play your part in the movie, come back and let us know! Have a delightful day. Karen

Hi Vps. I love the name Whoopi Goldberg, too, and I love her as an actress...so very versatile. If you were part of a Harry Potter movie, which character would you say is most like you? Or which one would you like to be? Take care and blessings to you. Karen

Hello my friend PeacefulWmn9 Ji, Well, it is just for your satisfaction, my movie may be named after , 'RISING SUN', because my life has been full of ups and down, where there were lot many characters, whom my motehr fought and brought up. It has been a social Drama all the way and even now, it has been an overall satisfatory compromise, can be termed as happy ending. I think, "Gone with the winds", actors could be fitting in my life story. May god bless You and have a graet time.

What a good way to "name" one's life, after the sun. And for sure, we do have ups and downs, just as the sun has risings and settings each day, day after day. The actors in "Gone with the Wind" were stellar! Thank you for sharing and have a great day. Karen

ROFL!! Oh this is cute! I was just thinking about something similar these past days. Well, my life wouldnt be just one movie, it would be different movies... for my childhood, Little House on the Prairy with Boyz in the Hood put in the mix, to play me as a child, oh man... the only character I can think of is Daffy Duck, so Id say any child as long as the actor can interpret Daffy Duck very nicely. For my teenage years, "The Breakfast Club", cause thats how it pretty much felt for me!, I think the actress here for me would have been Raven Symoné. As for adult years, at the beginning it was "Fight Club" I would say my 20´s and now that Im in my 30´s... Id say its now squared to "Sponguebob Squarepants". As for the actors I think the same Sponguebob would interpret me well... Seriously.. this is me.:D

Hi Indybaty :D LOL, I love this! What a great idea to make various movies of the different stages of your life. (I'm not sure Daffy is available, though, to play some of your younger years lol) I'm trying to think of a character that resembles him lol. All of the movies you've named are some of my favorites! Raven Symone is terrific! As for Sponge Bob, I think he and Daffy are on vacation or taking a hiatus somewhere together, so he, too, might be unavailable to play you at this time. Great response!

Well seeing as they've already done a movie about me, 'Life of Brian' by the Monty Python team but it's based on the religious concept and that isn't me. I think Rollercoaster would be a good name for a film about me, because my life is full of ups and downs, and so are my moods! One day my mood is up the next it's down but that's the nature of depression I guess! As to who I'd have playing me, well it has to be without question Leonardo Di Caprio, my hero! I can't think of anyone else who would fill my boots and be so versatile.

Hello there, Wolfie. "Life of Brian" was an excellent movie, one worth watching more than once, which I've done. Life and moods are indeed very much like the twists and turns and such of a roller coaster. That's a good title! I suffer with depression, too, and have for many years. It's tricky and unpredictable sometimes, yes? And what a great actor you've chosen to play you. Di Caprio is excellent in every pic he does, very versatile, as you said. I wish you all the best, sincerely, and thank you for your input here. Karen

since i am very simple person so the simplest actress coming into my mind who tally's with my personality is Rani Mukherji. She is sweet and i feel her nature in me. "kal ho na ho" will be the picture where priety being gud looking lives in a simple way but changes soon by one helping hand of shahrukh.

Hello Coolcat. Tell me a bit about Rani Mukherji. She has a beautiful name, but I am not familiar with her acting, so would love to learn more about her. The plot sounds good! It would be fun to actually have a movie made of one's life, yes? Have a sweet night and a great day tomorrow. Karen

Well my life so far could be turned into a movie called "Discovering the Real Me" and would chose Keifer Sutherland to play me.

Hello Daily. I like the title you've chosen. I think we discover and re-discover ourselves for an entire lifetime. Keifer Sutherland is an excellent actor, and has been since he was just a kid. Still going strong with 24, too. Have an excellent evening and thank you for your input. Karen

Hi San. What a unique idea...it hadn't occured to me how much fun it might be to play one of the characters in my own movie. I think it would be fun to play the role of a villin! Bourne Fatality...good title. It could be thrown into the Jason Bourne mix perhaps. And yes, Matt Damon would be great as "San Bourne." Thank you for sharing your creative mind with us. Karen

Not sure about the title of the movie but I'd like the title Happenstance--although there's a french film with that title and it'd have Christina Ricci starring. (=

Hi AeriaGloris. Happenstance, I like the sound of that. It would look good up there on the big screen, only it would be a variation on the original. Christina Ricci...very nice choice there, too. Thank you for taking part, and have a lovely evening. Karen
