Its a gray rainy day, the kind I like for watching old movies. I have a lot of favorites but today I thought I would find you a great deal on a movie my dad and I loved to watch together. He wasn't big on musicals but he did love Brigadoon.
Brigadoon is the story of Two Americans, Gene Kelly and Van Johnson, on a hunting trip in Scotland who become lost. They encounter a small village, not on the map, called Brigadoon, in which people harbor a mysterious secret, and behave as if they were still living two hun
dred years in the past. In the end the men need to decide on staying forever in the enchanted land of Brigadoon or go back to their own lives, possibly never finding love again. Its a heartwarming story that makes me smile everytime I watch.

The best price I found on the DVD today was at Buy.com for $11.15 with shipping. If you are a member, you can find the movie available to rent at NetFlix, the movie is also available on iTunes for $9.99 to download and keep or $2.99 to rent, there are also used copies available on eBay, I was able to find a couple with starting bids at $4.50.
Hope you all have a great Sunday.

I have never seen Brigadoon. Is it like Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.
