The Post About The Rabbit Recommends v.111

Each week or so I post a readable or watchable and/or a listenable of which I'm fond. You can choose what happens after my recommendation. Ignore, embrace, debate. Earlier volumes of The Rabbit Recommends can be found here. 

Mother's Day Edition: I asked my Mom to share her favorites today. Please note: The views expressed herein are hers and do not necessarily represent the views of me.

Read
When I asked my Mom about her favorite book, she answered "The Bible." So yes, she played the Jesus card. But truth be told, it really is the book she reads the most. And not in a mean I-know-more-than-you way but in a I-need-God-because-this-place-is-crazy way. 

Watch

My mom adores feel-good movies. Her favorite is Dragonfly starring Kevin Costner and Kathy Bates (trailer above). It's about a grieving doctor who is being contacted by his late wife through his patients' near-death experience. I think the "Kevin Costner" part is the clincher. She also recommends the following:

• Sports: Remember the Titans. Denzel Washington.
• Time Travel: Frequency. James Caviezel AND Dennis Quaid.
• PG-Oh My: The Thorn Birds. Richard Chamberlain.
• Cartoon: The Little Mermaid. Obviously we part ways on this one.

Listen

Have you ever seen those black and white clips of girls screaming when they saw Elvis? Then you've seen my Mom.  We actually both love this particular song the best - Bossa Nova Baby from the album Viva Elvis. 

What might you recommend to me and my mom this week? 

Don't forget: I'm giving away a $25 Amazon gift card for sharing your favorite fictional Mom.
