Top 5..

I am turning into that bloke from High Fidelity...*grins*
Ok, just cos my beauteous belly dancing beeej asked:

My Top 5 Films

1. Bladerunner
2. LA Confidential
3. The Star Wars Trilogy (original versions)
4. Grosse Pointe Blanc
5. Fight Club/The LOTR Trilogy

I'm cheating a bit on the last one as I've not settled yet on whether the LOTR films are gonna be in the Top 5 or not. I need longer to assess their impact on me!

You see, when I say, my Top 5 films, I mean the films I can watch over and over, have committed large chunks of dialogue to mind and generally adore. Believe me, you don't wanna *know* the Top 10! *grins*

Oh and before you ask, sadly Highlander got edged out by Fight Club.

Oooh and while I'm talking about films I watched sex, lies and videotape last night with The Ex. I haven't seen that film since I was about 18/19 and wow! I mean seriously, Wow! James Spader *rocks* and what a very clever, well thought out, intelligently handled *adult* film. I thought it was good when I saw it before but I don't think I appreciated just how clever it is until I saw it this time. Certainly if anyone is interested in seeing beautifully executed d/s and powerplay elements in relationships then watch this film. It really sharply punctures the smug married syndrome and highlights all those ghastly common place lies we make to ourselves. Outstanding stuff!

The scene where the cheating husband watches his soon to be ex-wife transform into this in control goddess is just..Guh! Oh
and James Spader is too yummy for words. I want.

So your Top 5?

Ed Norton is one of my sacred group of adored actors. You kow the ones who always make films worth watching. I adored Primal Fear and he's also utterly wonderful in Fight Club. Fantastic acting. Have you seen American History X? He's class in that too..

Brad actually acts his pants off in Fight Club. Normally he's a little on the pretty side for my tastes but he's all fucked up and ripped in this like in Snatch and just Guh! Plus Helena Bonham Carter plays totally against type and is just sex on stick...

You will recognise where my 'I am Em's complete lack of surprise' and the like, type comments come from as well :)

Oh and the ending will do more then punch you in the gut ;)

Just commented on your choices. Like 'em lots! If your a movie slut I dread to think what that makes me :)

I tried replying to this but right now I can't stop staring at his nipple. I was probably going to agree with you.
