Motion Pictures

The first moving picture I actually remember watching was Star Trek when I could first stand up when I was shorter than the console TV.

  • 24/01/27 - shared a clip of Bill Murray singing Peace, Love, and Understanding from Lost in Translation to some friends and got to thinking about making a collage of clips that have just stuck with me. Figured I'd need work up a list of those films first so I've added some more here alongside of Scenes.
  • 23/12/18 - added Holiday Movies because I got asked for my favorites
  • 23/02/10 - wrote about White Lotus
  • 23/02/03 - wrote about Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
  • 17/10/15 - just starting a list...perhaps at some point, I'll come back in here and rank them.
