Ok I have to say that I have seen more of my dad in Will Smith all the time or vice versa but I think that the most apparent thing is their manerisms. This interview shows that. He talks about how he has been basing his past few projects on trauma basically. The way he laughs and his hand motions were dead on. So I have taken it upon myself to cast Will Smith as my dad if I ever have a biopic or anyone of my family members do. I bet Jada Pinkett could even play my mom because she is so cool!

Well know that’s out in the open I was watching the Sound of Music and I think to myself ‘what a wonderful world’ just kidding but I thought about how that movie started Hollywood’s obession with nannies or ‘governesses’ and families with a lot of children. Now this movie reminds me of Cheaper by the Dozen and Yours, Mine, And Ours because of the number of kids but those two movies had to double even triple the number of movies. The Nanny Diaries for some reason has some resemblence of that movie as well because if you saw that movie Scarlett Johanson’s character was trying to find herself like Maria was and she was well spoken like Maria. Now I haven’t seen enough nanny movies to sight the part where the employer falls for the nanny but I am sure if I search some movie buff’s knowledge I know I would find some.

Keep your independence at least for today
