THURSDAY MOVIE CONNECTION. Every Thursday in 2012, I am connecting movies through actors.

March is all MUSICALS!

In honor of Alfred Hitchcock's death on April 29, 1980, April is dedicated to Hitch, and all my favorites.

National Treasure: Book of Secrets, 2007







Director: Jon Turtletaub

Stars: Nicholas Cage, Diane Kruger, Justin Bartha, Jon Voight, Helen Mirren, Ed Harris, Harvey Keitel









When evidence has shown up that ties the Gates family to the Lincoln assassination, Ben gates (Cage) and his father Patrick (Voight), will cross oceans and do whatever it takes to clear their family name. But they're up against the worst kind of villain: Mitch Wilkinson (Harris), who discovered the Gates-Lincoln connection, is bent on finding this second treasure that is said to be hidden under a great National landmark. He kidnaps Ben's mother (Mirren) in order to use Ben to search for the treasure.

This one is really great as well. I love how these movies are fast-paced, action- packed, and very clever, weaving fiction into history. Love it!
