    What is Colin Firth doing in What a Girl Wants?

  2. I saw 10 including top 2. 10 and favorite jerry maguire. 9s not favorites: for the love of the game, addicted to love (both hidden gems). lots of 7s . 7s and hidden gems: twins, from dusk to dawn(for Steve), 52 pickup, sky high . 7s are just barely worth watching to fight boredom, like during a pandemic.

    1. Hey bob cox…thanks for checking out our Kelly Preston tribute page.Your 10 seen is 25% of her movie career. I liked Addicted To Love as well….not thinking many people agree with us. I saw Sky High on my honeymoon….so that movie always brings some good memories. Good ratings and good feedback.

  3. Sad news. The only movie of hers I have seen is Jerry Maguire which is a favourite of mine. Rest in Peace

    1. Hey Flora. Thanks for checking out our Kelly Preston tribute page. You might have only seen one of her movies, but you have probably seen her best movie and her most known movie. I love Jerry Maguire as well. Good feedback. RIP Ms. Preston.

  4. 1/IMDB credits Kelly with just 1 award and 4 nominations and in today’s entertainment world of excessive quantities of both formal and informal accolades such a low figure is almost unheard of. Regretfully all of the awards/noms were Razzies.

    2/Greatly compensating for that though from career and material perspectives is her quoted net worth of $ $20 million which was the figure assessed for her this year. NOTE Some sources confusingly quote $180 million; but apparently there are elements of husband John Travolta’s wealth mixed in with that.

    3/I have seen her on the big screen in 10 to Midnight; Jerry Maguire; Cat in the Hat; Addicted to Love; and For Love of the Game; as well as a 1983 episode of the TV series Quincy called “On Dying High” in which she played Ginger Reeves. The episode was in the last handful of ones in Quincy’s 8th and final season.

    4/Wikipedia highlights 23 of her other TV productions from 1980 – 2016; and she made a music video in 2004.

    5/She has left behind in the pipeline a comedy “Off the Rails; in which she is top billed and has as her co-star the prestigious Dame Judi Dench; which is at post-production stage; and which hopefully will be released at the earliest possible moment.

    Once again it is appreciated that we on this site via this page have the almost instantaneous opportunity to pay our respects to a departing movie star. RIP Kelly. Your death has particularly saddened us as you have left us much too soon when you clearly had so much to live for.

    1. Hey Bob. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Kelly Preston. Good information on her last movie, net worth, awards (sort of), and her last movie. Most of her movies were already in the database…so putting this tribute page did not take too long….plus 40 movies is a very impressive accomplishment. Good stuff….and good thoughts on the late Ms. Preston. Rest in peace.
