One Movie Line At A Time
Bio
Growing up loving movies, and quoting infamous lines, N. Jordan is about taking life's given competition and embracing it through movies quotes. Each posting reflects a personal understanding on how movies effect people, our lives and our fake realities. If life is a movie, why do we compete in so many ways? Sports, love, relationships, family, business, money, career, kids, etc. Its time to see who is keeping score. Because... life is sometimes an altered reality, just go at it one movie line at a time. My real name is Michelle Keifer. But, I've always wanted to talk about life through a guy's perspective. Just seemed so fitting as I've always been just one of the boys. Go New England Patriots!

#203 "The Truth About Cats & Dogs"... meow woof!

Rate: 3 Flag

"Dogs don't like to be left alone. It's not like, when you leave, he goes, "Great, time to finish writing my novel!" No, when their humans leave, dogs get depressed, and they show it."

  

Dr. Abby Barnes


 The Truth About Cats & Dogs

1996

Often at times we reflect on the dogs we've met and the cats we've passed by. We think about the biological differences between cats and dogs, just as we look at the differences between men and women.

This film captured the reality of love in disguise. A man falling for a woman behind the voice. A courage of making a first impression, yet it becomes mistaken for the wrong woman. Dr. Abby Barnes is a radio host and Noelle is her beautiful friend. Brian is a man drawn to love by Abby, yet, mistakenly presumed that Noelle was Abby.

I am sure this occurs a lot with twins. Yet, never thought it could with a voice. Voices identify ones soul. Whether it is auditory spoken or literary written down it just seems a bit superficial.

Someone becomes someone to someone when that someone expels such desire to define ones relationship. Is it true that we all assume love at first sight is an overstatement? I know that love at first laugh is often more engaging and acceptable. But, what makes more sense? Auditory connection or physical connection? Perhaps can a sense of humor be the end all to all ends?

What exactly is the truth about cats and dogs? Is a cat just a passive lady with claws that come out at night? Is a dog a man that focuses on the entertainment of  woman and longs for her to come back as quickly as possible?

 I know a few independent women. I know more less of a dependent man. Yet, is it true? Can a woman achieve such success by hiding behind her appearance? Can a man look beyond someones appearance and see their inner beauty? Can someone trick themselves into believing the soul makes a person either more interesting or less appealing?

Are we all just cats and dogs, and only a few of us can play it nice?

Didn't see the movie, but falling in love with a voice is a a lot easier than falling in love with a soul, I think. First, you have to meet them, and if they're on the radio, you don't get the time of day usually. Them, you have to spend a lot of time with them to find the soul, because people guard their souls, and won't let them out for just everyone. But a voice, even if you never meet the person, you can always dream!
Damn Scan Man.. you just blew my post out of the water!!! You are so philosophical. Well put. I rate your comment!!! 2 thumbs up!

Thanks Nick :-)
Hi, Movie Jordan! This was a cute movie, reversing the Cyrano de Bergerac roles (think Steve Martin in the updated version)!! But what you say here is even better: "Voices identify ones soul." So true -- and such a signature of who we are! And I'll believe in "Love at first laugh," for sure!!
I saw this movie with my daughter. We liked it a lot - both of us - and discussed similar questions afterwards. This was a good pick, thank you. ~R~
