Movies and movie recs or "What do you mean you haven't seen that?"

[skieswideopen]

I'm interrupting hometown month to talk movies. And movie recs. With summer blockbuster more or less upon us, it seems like an appropriate time.

1. What do you look for in a movie?/What kinds of movies do you like?
2. Do you have a favourite movie or three? (I'm using random numbers here. Feel free to talk about as many movies as you like. Or as few.)
3. What movies had the biggest impact on you?
4. Do you have any movies that you indiscriminately rec to everyone or think everyone should see at least once? (Could be the same as or different from #1 or #2. Totally up to you. Elaboration is encouraged.)



*Or winter blockbuster season, if you live in the Southern Hemisphere.

That's very true.

I LOVED Pariah! The lead was INCREDIBLE and though it was unbelievably painful, I loved how realistic her mother's reaction was. Same with Alike and Bina's relationship. Such a good movie.

Yeah, she really was incredibly good in it. The movie is heartbreaking but I really loved it. It was such a well-done movie and the entire cast was so good. As angry as her mother made me at the same time I felt sorry for her too. Kim Wayans did a wonderful job.
