Lazy movie night

griffinickMy Big Fat Greek Wedding was on TV tonight, and considering I'd never seen it, I thought I'd see what it was all about. It was okay, probably not worth the huge hype that had accompanied it when it had come out, but okay.
In a rather perverse way, it amused me. Normally when people guess my ethnicity, the first guess is Greek (doesn't help that I used to study Classical archaeology and ancient Greek!). I suppose I might share certain physical traits that would be hallmarks of Greek or more broadly Mediterranean people, despite the fact that I don't believe I have a drop of Mediterranean blood in me. Having watched the film, however, I sure hope I don't share some of the other traits (I don't think I'm that obnoxiously loud or nosy!).
I'm somehow now in a mood to make spanakopita....
