Day 02

Your favourite movie.
This is a tough one. I love so very many movies, but I managed to make a top 5 list with images of my favorite scenes and some quotes. (Alphabetical order, not order of importance)

1. Amelie

Best scene, no lie. Most of my life was spent daydreaming as such, and yesterday, I had to run to the corner store to buy milk for the pasta sauce Ty was cooking up and in my head, this scene played the entire time. Can I just say how thrilled I am that this scene can actually play out in my real life now and not just my imaginary life?! I also love when the homeless man in the train station tell her, "Oh no, I don't work on Sundays." as she goes to put money in his cup... Amour.

2. Annie Hall

"If life were only like this."
A tough one to have to pick just one favorite scene from... I love this though, this busting through of the fourth wall and just all the annoyance, anxiety, Mozart, James Joyce and sodomy leading up to a successful jab at ones pretentious-ness. Absolute sex.

3.Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

I didn't think I would be able to find an image from this movie depicting my favorite part, but I did and this is it. Its when Roy is making the mashed potato sculpture at dinner and his wife and kids are all staring at him and his oldest son just starts crying. Every fucking time, this just scene is like a punch to the stomach. I have been that kid and I realized once, while I was going through a phase of watching this movie, probably once a week at least for about 3-4 months, that when I become a parent, this is probably the kind of crazy I will go...
[Roy is shoveling soil into his kitchen window] "Ronnie, if I don't do this, *that's* when I'm going to need a doctor."

4. Pierrot le Fou

I have so many pictures from this movie up on this blog, and its hard to think of one part that I love more than any other. But I found this. I can't quite remember what he says to his daughter but he reads something to her and tries to tell her something really profound and I just love that interaction between adult and child.

5. Uncle Buck

I couldn't find one image that captured this entire thing correctly, so I had to find the clip. <3, especially when she tells her story about the dog throwing up, I don't know why, but that gets me every time.

So those are my top 5, all time fave, watch them over and over and over again, movies. Following closely to them all (tied with more than 6-10) are The Life Aquatic, Pretty in Pink, Barefoot in the Park, Jaws and Pulp Fiction.
