Movies that made me

[frenchani]

I've seen a few films at the cinema lately: My Sweet Pepper Land, Eastern Boys, States of Grace and Labor Day. Eastern Boys was easily the best one and would be the only one I'd want to review.

Of those my favorite is Blade Runner, The Director's Cut

I tried not to pick favourites but really films that played a role in shaping my views or that paved the way for my life as an adult, but many of them would also be on my list of favourite movies.

Hmmmm - I have not seen 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 on your list or any of your recently viewed films. I need to get out more.....

Well, 6 was released in 2002 and 7 in 2004, while 8, 9 and 10 were made/released between 2009 and 2012.

Hey thar's cheating!

I think of it as being 'creative!'

I just realized why I chose Edward Scissorhands in that one category. It was because I watched it with my mother and her reaction to the movie mirrored my own. It always made it more special for me.
