For no particular reason, in no particular order: my top ten favorite films.
(Today anyway.)
The Royal Tenenbaums
"'Did you tell Margot about me being in love with her?'
'Did she tell you that? Yes, I did. Why would she repeat that, I wonder?'
'I would ask you the same question.'
'And rightly so.'"
Good Will Hunting
"You're suspect! Yeah, you! I don't know what your reputation is in this town but after what you tried to pull today you can bet I'll be looking into you. Now the business we have, heretofore, you can speak with my aforementioned attorney. Good day gentlemen, and until that day comes, keep your ear to the grindstone."
The Virgin Suicides
"What lingered after them was not life, but the most trivial list of mundane facts: a clock ticking on a wall, a room dim at noon. And the outrageousness of a human being thinking only of herself."
Reality Bites
"'I was really going to be somebody by the age of 23.'
'Honey, all you have to be by the age of 23 is yourself.'
'I don't even know who that is anymore.'
'Well I do. And we all love her. I love her. She breaks my heart again and again, but I love her.'"
The Last of the Mohicans
"...and one day there will be no more frontier. And men like you will go too, like the Mohicans. And new people will come, work, struggle. Some will make their life. But once, we were here."
Mansfield Park
"Run mad as often as you like, but do not faint. Beware of fainting spells. Beware of swoons."
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
"'If you wanna be with me, you're with me.'
'Okay.'
'Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a screwed up girl who's looking for my own peace of mind. Don't assign me yours.'"
The Graduate
"'Would you mind telling me then what those four years of college were for? What was the point of all that hard work?'
'You got me.'"
The English Patient
"The heart is an organ of fire."
The Secret Garden
"I can't go outside; the spores!!"

WOW!!! I am so thoroughly impressed that I can't even find the words!!! My movie loving kindred listing all of her favorite movies complete with lines and pictures! Good grief. Well, I don't know that we're "kindreds" as far as particular movies go, but we're definitely kindreds in regards to our love of cinema. And Oscars! And Oscar dresses. :-) Thanks for making me smile today.
