Some of my Favorite Movies

This list is purely subjective. I may add to it in the near future. The movie had to touch me in some way. A movie that I watch over and over again. I looked at some lists. I did not like Citizen Kane, for example, so I did not include it. I found it interesting how much I liked the older movies then the ones of today. Some movies listed below don't have the year because it wasn't listed and this blog is not supposed to be work. I don't get much oppurtunity to see foreign films so they are not listed. This is not a fake list. Hope you like it, if not(shrugging), so be it.

I'm re-watching E.T. for the first time since my original viewing about 15 years ago!

If you liked and watched it a lot, or when you are flipping channels and a movie is on and you stop to watch it, even with commercials, and you have the movie, it belongs on the list.
Thanks for stopping by.

Love LA Confidential, just ordered the "deluxe" 2-disc version which has narratives by the director, a behind-the-scenes film and interviews with Russell Crowe and Guy Pearce, and some other good extras. Lots of fun.

Have watched American Graffiti lots of times and it is great too.

Moo!

Also love Hard Day's Night, got the re-mastered DVD and the songs sound so fantastic you can't believe it.

Don't buy it though because the second disc will not play on any computer known to man or Cow. Sucks. Is supposed to have a lot of extras but computers nor DVD players can't read it, and Amazon is impossible to return things to.

Moo!
