  • Won't make a big list but I have always loved musicals, like Sound of Music, My Fair Lady, Grease, etc. I love romantic comedy like When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless in Seattle.  Not impressed recently with the movies that are in theaters.  So haven't gone in agesl

    "Memento" !  What a movie! Guy Pearce is great in it, too.

    "Mulholland Drive" - - yes!

    "Up" -- I've not seen it but, more than once, different people have told me that I remind them of the dog in that movie.
