1) The Graduate. I first saw this film my Junior year in college for a film class. Not only do I love this movie but I LOVE it!!! This was Dustin Hoffman's first and I must say one of his best. From the cool camera shots to the outstanding soundtrack....this is one movie I have seen many times.
2) Sweet Home Alabama. When it comes to romantic comedies this has all the elements of a good one. Reese Witherspoon is perfect as a sassy, spunky southern girl who thinks she has it all until she goes back to her not-so-perfect southern roots. Patrick Dempsey stars. LOVE....
3) Nacho Libre. Okay....so this one might have surprised you. It's one of those movies you either you either love or hate. In the Ackman Family it's our most quoted film. We LOVE it!!!
4) I just happen to LOVE a good scary movie. You know one of those edge of your seat nail biters. Skelton Key happens to be one of those movies. I have seen this film at least 10 times and still get chills at the ending.
5) Yep, another RomCom...Notting Hill with Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant. I have watched this flick a dozen times and never get tired of it. Cute, sweet and one of the best romantic movie endings EVER!!! A definite LOVE:)
So there ya' go. 5 movies I LOVE. What about you? I would love to hear yours!!
I'll bet you get comments from we women folk screeching: "THE NOTEBOOK!" :-))

You've Got Mail
Pulp Fiction
3:10 to Yuma (the new one)

That's today - I may have a different list tomorrow ;-)

I love movies, seriously LOVE them, watch too many of them, but it's something that brings me some happiness..and we all need some happiness!! ;D
6) Underworld..I just couldn't leave out a good vampire/werewolf movie!!
Dear Leslie-I am not really a movie person but once in a while I like a scary one too. Have to check out Skeleton Key. Is that Kate Hudson?? I left a comment the other day on yoyr previous post but then the computer decided to eat it up:) But I love that you have decided to embrace your artistic style ( a few posts down) and then share your story with us all. All of your fears + vulnerabilities are ones we all have...yes...it's just so difficult to believe in ourselves/our work/what we do. as I get older I realise that not everyone is going to like us/get us/agree with us and...it's okay:) What's important is that we like ourSELVES. Also...I am so jealous that you get to walk your little booty off...I am going to P.T. for my knee and hope I can get back to my workouts soon.xxx
ReplyDeleteP.S. LOVE your new banner!!! It's so YOU!!!!
ReplyDeleteNacho Libre is my absolute favorite movie and my kids too. We quote it all the time as well. We always joke about our stretchy pants.
ReplyDeleteNotting Hill has been a favorite of mine since it first came out!!! "I'm just a girl, standing in front of a guy, asking him to love her." AHHHHH!!!!! Definitely one of my favorites. I'm also a big fans of "When Harry Met Sally", "You've Got Mail", "Gone With The Wind", "Singing' In The Rain" and "Steele Magnolia". I guess I'm a major chick flick sort of movie girl!
