There wasn’t much to choose from. It WAS Sunday night, after all. (Or are we the
last family to still rent movies from an external source, and there just isn’t
a good selection in these machines anyway?
I always assume I’m hopelessly old-fashioned in every way.)
Anyway, I snagged an Australian movie called Red Dog. The Australians have been good to us in the
past, what with Duma and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. I figured this movie would be okay for us. I didn’t even read the synopsis. Family movies about dogs are pretty safe all around,
so I took it home and announced that tonight was Red Dog night.
Groans and whines and defeated sighs were heard all
around. Why is mom so uncool? Why does she still act like we’re
babies? What is with her and these crazy
foreign movies?
And when my husband quit complaining, the children started.
I ignored their rudeness and fired up the movie, and watched
the heck out of Red Dog and his exploits, which were amazing and touching and
maybe one of the best family movies we’ve seen in a while. I won’t spoil one detail for you, because you
should see it. We all loved it in
different ways.
In particular, my daughter, age 9, was totally taken with
the main character in the movie, played by Josh Lucas, American actor.
He’s smoking hot, as told to me several times by my
daughter, age 9. Mr. Lucas is 42 years
old. She thinks he’s 30. Which is, whoa, way too old for her to think he is smoking hot. Why does my 9-year-old use this term, anyway?
When I mentioned that he’s probably close to 40, she said no
problem, can you Google him and print out a picture of him for my wall? Because he is smoking hot.
So Josh Lucas is my daughter’s first celebrity crush.
It makes more sense when you look at this picture of my husband,
who resembles him a little:

So funny! Phsically laughing.
ReplyDeleteSo funny! Physically laughing.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we just didn't have a good selection of smoking hot celebrities back then? That's what I'm telling myself, anyway.
DeleteSweet :)
ReplyDeleteAnd as a plus it looks like Josh there knows his way around a gin bottle.
That's probably what cinched it for her.
DeleteHmm...must check out Red Dog. Wanna know my first celeb crush? Simon Le Bon from Duran Duran. Yes, pathetically dating myself and admitting to my embarrassing pre-teen crush at the same time.
ReplyDeleteHey - Simon Le Bon was a hot piece of teenage dream. Is he still? Because I'm not sure about the rest of them I lusted after between Clearasil applications.
