Valentine's Day Gift Guide #3

Hectic schedule? No problem. We have a cyber-rescue if you have procrastinated…Amazon Gift Cards will make your Valentine one happy sweetheart! Grab a bottle of champagne…a few good chocolates, and you have created “instant mood” for that special evening at home! The gift card you downloaded as you ran out of the office is the proverbial “icing on top the cake.”

And, what better way to use that Valentine’s Day gift card than on a couple of great videos featuring Sandra Bullock, the new "Queen of Rom Com?" Queen Bullock is top of the heap now with her recent Academy Award nomination for The Blind Side. Two of our personal favorites…perfect for viewing with someone special…The Proposal and While You Were Sleeping are available at Amazon.com.  

The Proposal
The Proposal captures that quirky charm of Bullock and brings Ryan Reynolds along as a perfect foil for her self-centered, yet endearing, portrayal of a hard-driving businesswoman. Betty White steals scene after scene with her 87 years of charm and wit.

Bottom line: Witty Reynolds and Bullock are perfect sparring partners for each other and not half bad to look at either.

While You Were Sleeping
You know those few movies that you love no matter how many times you’ve seen them…like Steel Magnolias, Sleepless in Seattle, Footloose? Well, add While You Were Sleeping to your list. After her success in the blockbuster Speed, WYWS firmly established Bullock as the "Queen of Rom Com." How could you resist Lucy, the lonely subway worker who thinks she is smitten with a stranger, while she is falling in love with his brother? And, needless to say, the situation gets uproarious as she is forced to make a choice between the two!
