Palm Springs
Palm Springs is my favorite type of movie. It's a romantic comedy that blends laughs, science fiction and thoughtfulness perfectly.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
It's embarrassing how many times I've seen this film. Monty Python and the Holy Grail pretty much defines my teenage sensibilities and completely opened my world to a new type of humor.
Fever Pitch
I completely understand why Fever Pitch is reviled by most Boston Red Sox fans, but it doesn't take away from the fact that this movie points out some pretty funny aspects of sports fandom.
Napoleon Dynamite
This was one of my favorite movies from 2004. It is so weird and strange, and really spoke to the digital film major in me to know that you could create something so memorable with such a low budget.
While You Were Sleeping
Although the plot of While You Were Sleeping is utterly ridiculous, director Jon Turteltaub and the rest of the producers at least knew how to cast this movie.
Two Weeks Notice
Two Weeks Notice would be completely unforgettable if it wasn't for the performances between Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock.
Uncle Buck
I probably hadn't seen Uncle Buck since it was originally released when I was eight. I remembered two things about it. One, John Candy is amazing. Two, a huge ass pancake.
Asteroid City
As an avid Wes Anderson fan, I was not prepared for the emotional depths that he was willing to go to with Asteroid City.
Flamin’ Hot
I can be a cynical person, but sometimes you just need a feel-good movie in your life like Flamin’ Hot.
Citizen Kane
Citizen Kane is as relevant as it was in 1941 and is the quintessential example of how Americans view power and success.
Notting Hill
I was a bit taken aback by how much I loved Notting Hill. The screenplay by Richard Curtis is masterful, lovely and above all, simple.
Four Weddings and a Funeral
Does Four Weddings and a Funeral have the most unlikeable female protagonist in the rom-com genre?
The American Gladiators Documentary
Like the show itself, a little bit goes a long way with The American Gladiators Documentary. This doc absolutely did not need two parts to tell its story.
Sleepless in Seattle
I don't drink coffee, but I liken the experience of Sleepless in Seattle to waking up on a cool morning and watching the sun come up cozied up in a favorite blanket while drinking a hot cup of joe.
The Godfather
The Godfather is a perfect example of where every aspect of filmmaking works in unison to create a terrific movie.
