My Top 10… Movies
I noticed the other day that I often refer to something as “one of my favorite xxx ever.” At a certain point, I realized I must have 100 favorite movies and even more favorite songs. So, I challenged myself to make definitive lists of my top tens as an exercise in creative thinking.
Today, I offer you My Top Ten Movies.
- Reservoir Dogs
What’s not to love? Tarantino. Keitel. Either one of those is enough, but both together… Awesome! Best. Movie. Ever.
- Full Metal Jacket
The movie most people remember from my senior year in high school is Top Gun, which was a fine movie, but this one… I’ve seen it so many times and it just keeps getting better.
- Natural Born Killers
A true chick flick. Mickey Knox, I think I love you.
- Apocalypse Now
Craaaaaaaaaaazy Marlon Brando. The man is genius.
- Moulin Rouge
So. I hate musicals. Hate them. Can’t make it through the first song – with rare exception. This is an exception.
- Practical Magic
I want this life.
- Romance
I love everything from Catherine Breillat. Everything. But I love this most.
- Picnic
I saw this movie the first time with my Daddy. I think he was more than a little concerned about my fascination with the anti-hero… He should have been.
- Peter Pan
Love the book. Love the story. Love this adaptation.
- ?? [A movie I don’t know the name of]
Yeah… So also with my father, I watched a movie about a civil war unit. At least part of it focussed on the drummer boys who were following the soldiers. I watched it as a child, so pre-1983 probably.
No. These are not in any real order.
Yes. They change almost daily.
