Umbrellas of Cherbourg has to be one of the most beautifully sad love stories ever told. I watched it with my eight year old daughter this year and she also fell in love with it. Hard not to when it stars one of the most beautiful women in the world. Also, the Heiress is on my list- Montgomery- ooh la la. And also, Goodfellas and Mulholand Drive. Others for me: Breakfast at Tiffany's, A Place in the Sun, Sound of Music, Rosemary's Baby, The Aviator, and The Bad Seed. I could go on- it is like having a favorite song- there must be a hundred!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-50086471535640771492012-12-30T21:03:45.127+13:002012-12-30T21:03:45.127+13:00Yay for Schindler's List!Yay for Schindler's List!Stevee Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12284769251750574447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-51542966017918974842012-12-30T20:49:44.300+13:002012-12-30T20:49:44.300+13:00Same!

(I haven't actually seen Fireflies since I first saw it when I was 17 but I've never forgotten it. And even watching the Totoro trailer makes me tear up - happy tears - I just love Ghibli!)<br />Cherbourg is really something - it's a little strange at first when you realise they aren't going to stop singing, but you settle into it really quickly, don't you? <br />Alien? *fistpump* Awesome!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00175638828147935702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-2910712502308565242012-12-28T12:51:55.792+13:002012-12-28T12:51:55.792+13:00Wow, amazing selection of movies you got to experi...Wow, amazing selection of movies you got to experience for the first time. Those two Ghibli movies are both excellent. Do you know there is a Ghibli museum in Japan, might be worth checking it out in advance (I remember you would need a reservation)...just a tip. Also love Goodfellas and Alien. I personally didn't like Breathless, it just couldn't keep me entertained.Nostrahttp://www.myfilmviews.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-4474484964456627622012-12-28T10:35:24.661+13:002012-12-28T10:35:24.661+13:00I was able to find good information from your blog...I was able to find good information from your blog articles.<br /><i>Here is my web blog</i> - <b><a href="http://new.ain.az/index.php?do=/blog/23858/tattooing-removal-tat-removal-appearing-in-miami/" rel="nofollow">http://new.ain.az/index.php?do=/blog/23858/tattooing-removal-tat-removal-appearing-in-miami</a></b>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
