Video Baton from Sassy Lawyer
Does the film one collects give an insight on who you are? Can one be defined by the movie one watches? What is a meme ? Well to know check this link to Wikipedia or you can be satisified with this definition - a meme is a piece information passed from mind to mind or a unit of cultural transmission or a unit of imitation.
This meme came from Sassy Lawyer who in turn got it from Yuga.
This particular meme requires me to tag four others, so I pass it on to: Allan, Ben, Mona, and Zarah.
Total Number of Films I own on DVD, VCD, LD and VHS : I gave up on VHS a long time ago; Laser disc I have around 3 or four; VCD movies around 60; and 33 original DVDs.
The Last Films I Bought : Goodfellas, Unforgiven and THX
Five (5) Films Which I Watch A Lot
Life of Brian: The Monty Python gang's take on the life of Brian, his mother told him he was the Messiah, during the time of Jesus Christ. I often replay the crucifixion scene where the whole cast is crucified and they begin to sing "Always Look at the Bright Side of Life".
Goldfinger: Bond...James Bond. Sean Connery playing Bond versus Goldfinger, Oddjob and Pussy Galore.
The Princess Bride:The tale of Buttercup and Wesley complicated by the strategems of Prince Humperdink, the cunning of Vizzini, the strength and good-heartedness of Fezzik the Giant, the revenge of Inigo Montoya and the wise cracks of Miracle Max.
The Lion in Winter:Plots and counter-plots in the court of King Henry II of England and his queen, Eleanor of Acquitaine. Its a Plantagenet's christmas, celebrate the nativity with politics and intrigue. I prefer the 1968 version where the roles were played by Peter O'Toole and Katherine Hepburn.
Love Actually: Comedic ensemble performance depicting love and comedy in the UK during the Christmas season.
Five Films That mean A Lot To Me:
La Grand Illusion: A pre WWII French film that the Nazis tried to eradicate from the face of the Earth or at least keep away from the public. I first saw this film during those screenings sponsored by the embassy at the old Shangrila cinemas.
Secondhand Lions: Michael Caine, Robert Duvall and Haley Joel Osment. Story of a boy sent to live with his eccentric but suspicuously wealthy uncles in Texas.
Kind Hearts & Coronets: Sir Alec Guiness essaying eight roles. A black comedy depicting the gentle art of killing one's blood. Set in Edwardian England.
Stalag 17: Comedy, intrigue, escape and cynics. A prisoner of war camp for non commissioned officers during World War II.
Imelda : The documentary about Imelda by Imelda talking about Imelda. Plus the usual gang of friends, sychophants and enemies.
