I love movies. As I mentioned in another post, I own hundreds of digital movies. I am almost done with seeing all of the AFI Top 100 films. And every year I try to see every Oscar nominee. Needless to say, I have a long, long list of films that I love. In the same vein as my long list of songs, I thought I'd capture as many as I could here. As I think of them, of course. I'll keep adding new ones too, if they fit the bill.
