Movies that Are a Part of Me

[pennswoods]

The #cinephilephote meme on twitter had me thinking about favorite filmes, or perhaps, films that have stayed with me. Films can be so ephemeral sometimes, so I had to dig deep. I'm sure I'll think of more, but these are the films that really are a part of me in some way:

1. Trois couleurs: Bleu (Three Colors: Blue)


2. When Harry Met Sally


3. Der Himmel über Berlin (Wings of Desire)


4. Contact


5. Another Earth


6. Dirty Dancing


7. Shall we ダンス? (Shall we Dance?)


8. となりのトトロ (My Neighbor Totoro)


9. 火垂るの墓 (Grave of the Fireflies)


10. Real Genius


11. Back to the Future


12. Some Kind of Wonderful


13. White Christmas

I know I'll think of more to add to this later, but I'd love to know what films you love or have resonated with you so deeply that they've become a part of you.

Der Himmel Über Berlin (Wings Of Desire) is my Favorite Movie Ever.

It's so gorgeous. There is something about the isolation of the angels and of the people and all the thoughts that just sucks me in. What an incredible story told through thoughts and colors and expressions and a bit of narrative.

God, I'm getting chills.
