goggles.

Today I was thinking about the fact that some of my favorite scenes in movies (or tv shows) are when a character dons goggles. What is it about goggles that can just make you smile?

1.)    Benny & Joon – I could not find a picture but when Joon wears the goggles for the blender scene, I can’t help but laugh.

2.)    The Brothers Bloom – Bang Bang is just a favorite character of mine period, but when she puts on the goggles it’s truly hard for me to keep a straight face.

3.)    Notting Hill – Both Hugh Grant & Rhys Ifans wear goggles at some point in the movie.

What are some of your favorite movies/pictures where the character/person is wearing?

Overflowing with the ten thousand beautiful things. Worlds within worlds. Forests, rivers. Velvet coverlets thrown over featherbeds, fountains bubbling beneath a canopy of stars. Bountiful forests, universal libraries. A wine cellar offering an intoxi cation so sweet you will never be sober again. A clarity so complete you will never again forget. This magnificent refuge is inside you. Enter. Shatter the darkness that shrouds the doorway… Believe the incredible truth that the Beloved has chosen for his dwelling place the core of your own being because that is the single most beautiful place in all of creation. – Introduction to the Interior Castle, St. Teresa of Avila, by translator Mirabai Starr
