Lists: Favorite Movies

Movies. Originally I planned to write a short paragraph about each movie and post a different genera each week for the next several months, but ... that involves a lot of work and I'm pretty sure no one would be particularly interested. If you're curious about any of the movies listed (which you should be), I've linked the movie's imdb page for more information. Enjoy, and I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions.
