One of my favorite guilty pleasure movies of all time is Imitation of Life, specifically the Lana Turner version. I own this movie on VHS so I can watch it anytime I want, but when I come across it on TV I will always stop and watch it - even if it is in the middle of the night. And, when it is over, I always end up bawling and calling my mother (even if it is the middle of the night) to tell her I love her. She always knows..."you've been watching that movie again, haven't you?" - lol.
This morning when I got to the office the first version of it was on - Claudette Colbert. I haven't ever seen the end of this one, and it doesn't seem to be quite the tear jerker of the later one, but it is still pulling at my heartstrings. Amazon sells them both together - great marketing.
Just what a girl needs when she is weepy, and the rain is falling....
