What are some favorite movies?
I have loved movies since I first watched Tarzan as a kid. Now they are a valuable distraction for me as I feel empty and isolated and alienated. Here are a few of my favorites:
Adaptation
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Saving Private Ryan
Little Miss Sunshine

Thank you, it looks intriguing
Omg! Thank you for posting this! Can’t wait!
Since I have been ill and anxious my taste in movies has changed a lot. I no longer like crime movies, suspense, and certainly not horror.
It’s hard to find comedies that don’t rely too much on crude sexual content.
Soooo, I find we go to Turner Classics a lot. Some are just too old to relate to, but I still can enjoy many of them.
Somewhat more recent films I enjoyed are:
Tootsie
Mrs. Doubtfire
Something’s Got to Give
The Devil wears Prada
It’s complicated
A league of Their Own
The First Wives Club
Julie and Julia
The Greatest Showman
All worth another viewing if you’ve already seen them.
Love "Little Miss Sunshine"!
All-star cast and wickedly funny. Alan Arkin, as usual, steals the show. I think this was his last major film appearance (RIP).
That's why I avoid the Farrelly brothers movies like the plague. I found "There's Something About Mary" mildly amusing , though raunchy. But then I made the mistake of viewing their awful remake of "The Heartbreak Kid" and that was enough for me. I don't generally watch the sophomoric stuff that Amy Schumer, Amy Pohler and the other kids fount on the cinematic world. Like you said: juvenile and gross are not a winning combo for me.
Im a big Dylan fan.
But, Timothée Chalomet?
Really?
He's a little bit too pretty to realistically portray Zimmerman.
I think that Bob, at least secretly, agrees.
