selenak . I've been wanting to do this the whole week, but didn't manage until now. :)
A Movie I Love: Bram Stoker’s Dracula
An Action Movie I Love: Jurassic Park (Yeah, I know I’m stretching genre boundaries to the very limit here, but still.)
A Drama I Love: The Ice Storm
A Western I Love: Once Upon a Time in the West
A Horror Movie I Love: The Last Wave (I could just as easily cite Robert Wise’s The Haunting but The Last Wave is the one horror movie which managed to scare the holy scrap out of me when I first saw it as a thirty-seven year-old adult. So brilliantly filmed, so deeply unsettling.)
A Comedy I Love: Groundhog Day
A Romance Movie I Love: Moulin Rouge
A Noir I Love: Chinatown
A Disney Movie I Love: Zootopia
A Sci Fi Movie I Love: Interstellar
An Animated Movie I Love: The Last Unicorn
A Superhero Movie I Love: Goldfinger (Does James Bond count as a superhero? If not, I’m screwed, because I don’t do Marvel.)
A War Movie I Love: Apocalypse Now
An Exploitation Movie I Love: Sorry, but no, just no. There are one or two Tarantinos and Peckinpahs which I’m fascinated by, but I wouldn’t file those under “exploitation”.
A Musical I Love: A Chorus Line
An Historical Movie I Love: Amadeus
A Bad Movie I Love: Flash Gordon
A Childhood Favourite: Star Wars (Star Wars IV: A New Hope)
A Shakespeare Movie I Love: Richard III (1995, the one with Ian McKellen)
