I just saw Beaches with Bette Midler, again. Crying at the end, again. She was great in The Rose.
Wow, did I love The Rose, Wasabi! What a talent!!! Don't think there's anything I don't like that the Divine Ms M has done. She cracked me up in Ruthless People and Down and Out in Beverly Hills.
If this doesn't make one want tap one's toes...

One of my favorites (but I like them all):
Some say love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
An endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
And you it's only seed.
It's the heart, afraid of breaking,
That never learns to dance.
It's the dream, afraid of waking,
That never takes a chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give.
And the soul, afraid of dyin',
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely,
And the road has been too long,
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows,
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love,
In the spring becomes the rose.
