In A Galaxy of My Own

The first time I ever saw the “Point of No Return” (1993) staring Bridget Fonda, Gabriel Byrne, and Dermot Mulroney, I was home sick from school. I can’t remember if I was in middle school or high school, but I do remember being extremely bored and not in the mood to do anything else but watch TV. After I watched it I immediately thought, “This is definitely one of my top favorite movies!” Granted I have tons of top favorites being a avid movie lover.

It’s about a girl who commits murder when her friends drag her into a heist gone wrong. She shoots a cop in the head and is sentenced to death by lethal injection. The government decides she would be a good candidate for a training program to become a top assassin. She shows much resistance because that’s just who she is, but eventually decides she needs a change if she’s ever going to get a normal life. She gets a new look and becomes refined and is sent out into the world with the intentions of starting a new life but keeps getting interrupted by getting called in to “take care of a target”.

I recommend it to anyone who likes women who kick butt and stand up for what they believe in.  I’m currently watching it right now because I haven’t seen it in about a year. I should try to find it on DVD to add to my growing collection.

It’s Sunday, currently my favorite day of the week. Mainly because it’s my only day off. I try to stay in my pajamas all day and do nothing but what I enjoy. Normally I play World Of Warcraft, but today I went out with Greg, my boyfriend of almost 15 months. We had brunch at IHop and then went shopping for hamster supplies. It was a relaxing day and I hate how fast it has gone by.

Bob: “How are you?”

Maggie: “I just blew up a hotel. How in the hell do you think I am?” - “Point of No Return”
