Love's Dozen - The Next Six

We're learning about men and love from movies -- catch up on the first set of required viewing.

Remember, my advice from the situations in these movies will be life-changing, but to get the full benefit you'll actually need to watch the movies. It's one thing to read in black and white about how Katharine Hepburne wastes her time with a man ridiculously unworthy of her in Desk Set; it's quite another to experience it all along with her.




Philadelphia Story – intuition and magic and character and time and what women want to hear from men;
When Harry Met Sally – men who can’t commit, framework for making sexual decisions, sex for non-sexual reasons, female screenwriters;
Postcards from the Edge – truth about playboys, female screenwriters, The Rush, seduction;



Pat and Mike – character, safely married vs. gloriously married;
Holiday – Love’s Hinckeys, The Peanut Speech of True Love;
Desk Set – men who can’t commit, magic, gloriously married;
To Have and Have Not – intuition, character, gloriously married.


Baker's Dozen - Born Yesterday - Abusive Relationships


Before long, you’ll not only know lots about true love but lots about classic movies – heaven knows you’ve wasted gargantuan moments watching awful movies – pay attention - there will be quizzes.

Love's Dozen - The Most Important Movies for Understanding Men

Honestly, you can learn everything you need to know about negotiating your path to true love from old movies. To get the full benefit from my advice, you'll hafta actually watch the movies -- half the point of the process is that you experience what the character experiences.

Pillow Talk – playboys and seduction;
Rear Window – men who can’t commit;
Where The Boys Are (1960)– seduction – character and time love factors, The Get Scale, and the most important modern seduction technique;
Roxanne – seduction and what women want to hear from men, why we really love men, and Gloriously Married;





Way Down East / Fast Times at Ridgemont High (they’re really the same movie) – seduction and youth and sex and playboys and true love;


Before long, you’ll not only know lots about true love but lots about classic movies – heaven knows you’ve wasted gargantuan moments watching awful movies – pay attention - there will be quizzes.
