The news that there is to be a Barbie movie meant nothing to me. I've always disliked Barbie, who came into being a few years after I'd quit playing with dolls. I never could understand the appeal of a doll that looks like a hooker, having always played with baby dolls or little girl dolls like Josie's Margot and Dolly. I would have loved the American Girl dolls if they'd been around. But that's just me. I know many women who retain fond memories of their Barbies. Josie has some Barbies (not from me) and loves playing with them.
But, when a trusted friend sent me a link to the trailer for the Barbie movie, I took a look. You should too. It's HERE.
