1) High Fidelity
I'm a huge John Cusack fan, and High Fidelity is one of my favorite Cusack films. I love the various "top five" lists and the funny asides to the camera, and I think all of the scenes in the record store are hilarious. Basically the combination of music and John Cusack is a can't-miss situation for me.
I was never a fan of Johnny Cash before I saw Walk the Line, mostly because I had never really paid any attention to his music. But I loved all of the songs in this movie, and it gave me a new appreciation for Cash. It's one of those movies I can watch any time I come upon it, and I'm always entertained.
3) The Lion King
I saw The Lion King with my nephew when it first came out, when he was about 3 or 4 years old. When the movie was over, he was so excited he jumped out of his seat and applauded, giving the movie a standing ovation. It was so cute, and thinking of that memory always makes me smile. Since I was a kid I've always loved the Disney movies that have animals as the lead characters, and this one is no exception.
Next up for tomorrow, blogs! :)
All three are such great movies. High Fidelity is definitely one of the best movies ever made. Jack Black is hilarious in it, and John Cusack... well... he's just yummy.
ReplyDeleteWalk the Line was brilliant, the music is fantastic, and Phoenix is a truly believable Johnny Cash.
The Lion King -- such a sweet and wonderful story filled with the best animation and soundtrack Disney has to offer.
Thanks for posting these choices, it was a trip down memory lane!
