i love these movies for different reasons, but they all provide me comfort about my own life and how i live it. maybe that doesn’t make sense, especially for american psycho, but i promise im not some annoying film bro … i like it cuz its silly…
currently: this is spinal tap (1984), dead poets society (1989), peewee’s big adventure (1985), good will hunting (1997) honorable mentions for my neighbor totoro (1988), cléo de 5 à 7 (1962), it’s a wonderful life (1946), rear window (1954)
Also added my recently watched! I love my top 4 right now, Hitchcock and Jarmusch are my favourite directors as you can probably tell. I’ve shown so many people rope it’s probably starting to get annoying. It’s a tough call between Down by law and Strangers in paradise for me but there’s something about the chemistry between Tom Waits, Robert Benigni and John Laurie that exudes comedy noir. Boys in the band and Only lovers left alive were both recommendations from my friends that I ended up adoring. Ill also sneakily link my letterboxd https://boxd.it/6ghrF
love isn’t about dependency, but about intention. choosing them not only for yourself but for them as well is love. especially when life is shit which is pretty often. love should be deliberate, not convenient.
