film selection

[timepiececlock]

Got into this from kimberly_a who put it up for slipjig's LJ poll here.

Most of these are recent (within 20 years), because while I've seen a lot of old movies (especially musicals), I tended to like these better.

My top 10 favorite movies ever
(in no particular order)
- Fight Club
- Moulin Rouge
- The Shawshank Redemption
- Spirited Away
- Dead Poet's Society
- Silverado
- Toy Story
- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
- Braveheart
- Memento


Well, them's the best I gots!

Thank god I wasn't drinking anything when I read this comment. My monitor would be drenched.

::giggle:: I'm glad that's someone else's favorite line too.

Kevin Kline is simply brilliant in that movie.

KK is one of my favorite actors, both in serious and comedic stuff, and in AFCW he was my favorite character. Because he was SO stupid and yet he couldn't stand it when people called him that. I loved his fish-eating interrogation.

Dammit! Now you've got me gushing about the movie... ;)
