I must admit, I’m not one to just grab some popcorn, park myself in front of the TV and watch a movie. I’m just not that big of a movie person, especially if it is not a comedy! Perhaps it’s because of my very short attention span or how into movies I actually get. I have a huge problem of becoming extremely attached to the characters and the plot that I become part of the story itself.
I’d much prefer to throw on a show that ends in 30 to 60 minutes, mainly reality television, anxiously awaiting for the a fresh new episode or show to follow shortly behind.
However, today is a different story. It’s an extremely gloomy, rainy day here in New Jersey and feels like the perfect day to stay inside and snuggle up for a movie. Lucky for me there is an endless supply of films to watch as I don’t watch many at all. And, as I browse to find a movie to play, I see all of the modern day options but realize that there are so many classic films I’ve never watched before and feel like I should have. So, I’ve rounded up a list of those films and want you guys to tell me which ones I should watch first and which one is your favorite!
WARNING: My list is quite pathetic!!!
1. Breakfast at Tiffany’s
2. When Harry Met Sally
3. Saturday Night Fever
4. The Breakfast Club
5. Sex In The City: The Movie
6. Thelma & Louise
7. Titanic
8. Pretty Woman
9. About Last Night
10. Girls Just Want To Have Fun
11. Almost Famous
12. Romeo + Juliet
13. Love & Basketball
14. Love Actually
15. Dirty Dancing
Breakfast at Tiffany’s! π Then if you are still ready for more, Breakfast Club is a must. You know what, you should probably just go ahead and throw in Dirty Dancing for a nice 3-movie binge. π

That’s me…”I have a huge problem of becoming extremely attached to the characters and the plot that I become part of the story itself”.
I love classic films and I tend to watch them more. I even love films from the late 80’s to 90’s, like the film Beaches is a favourite. Breakfast at Tiffany’s is one of my favourites and I feel that I am similar to Holly. xx

You have some great choices here. Audrey Hepburn is my hero so can never go past her. But When Harry Met Sally – that scene! Great film. And I was a teenager when Breakfast Club was first released so you can imagine the memories that film evokes. Those would be my picks but it’s a great list. And a great post – you’re inspiring me to revisit some of these films!
