So what are the types of movies I go for? Pretty much I think, and I can also say I am fairly easy to please. But one thing I realized is that I do not go for fantasy or comical types. I’d rather look at real human beings whose stories are within the realms of “human” experience. As time goes by, I realized that the simpler the plots are, the stronger the effect on the viewer.
There are many films I enjoyed watching and some of them I wish I can keep in a treasure chest for my son and son’s children. I realized some films are worth a second look, and some even more.
Here are some of the “collectibles” by my standards. I will just keep adding as I’m listing down from top of my head:
About Last Night (Demi Moore, Rob Lowe)
About Schmidt (Jack Nicholson)
American Dreamz (Mandy Moore, Hugh Grant, etc)
Blame it on the Bellboy (Dudley Moore, Bryan Brown)
