I never understood the popularity of Love Story. I don't know which was worse the book or the movie.

It's always a victory for me when I remember why I entered a room.

I think they were equally bad.

McQueen was number 3 I believe. 1973-1978

I remember how, at 30, she was considered an old newcomer back then.

The pain they have cost us, the evils that never happened.

They were both beautiful back then. Love Story was soooo hokey.

I loved Love Story and Goodbye Columbus,what young woman wouldn't want to look and dress like Ali back then.

Yes they were and yes it was.

Goodbye Columbus was a great movie. I loved the brother and his Ohio State record.

My best friend and I saw this movie about three times when it first came out. Swooned every time.

Exactly. I was going to say the same thing. The book was horrible, and the movie wasn't much better. It puts me in mind of 50 Shades of Gray, which I put down after the first 100 pages and gave to the Goodwill. I will NOT be seeing that movie.
