A LIST: FILMS I COULD WATCH OVER & OVER

Even before cameras and photographs, it was films for me... my brother and I used to use my Dad's camcorder to make movies when we were kids, although neither of us were very good actors, I think we just loved the process of getting the angles, coordinating the scenes, writing out the scripts. I was feeling nostaglic that Dave and I hadn't had the chance to visit the drive in theatre yet this summer, so the other night we brought the laptop out onto our third floor deck, snuggled on a sleeping bag with two beers and watched one of our faves, because movies really are better under the stars.... haha, we're nerds.Does everyone have those films you could go back to again and again, or is it just me? ...you know, those films that just get it. Here are a few of mine (click on the names to see the trailer & maybe you'll find a new favourite of your own!):1. Juno // dave and i once dressed up like juno & paulie for halloween, so2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind // meet me in montauk3. Lost in Translation // beautiful...4. The Game // an oldie & a goodie (whoa they make the trailer look scary!)5. Chocolat // chocolate + going against convention... love6. The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel // brings out the vagabond in me7. Last Chance Harvey // the trailer is garbage, just trust me on this one8. 13 Going on 30 // when i need a good cheer up -- i know, it's silly9. It's a Wonderful Life // every christmas eve, a must (trailer is all sorts of amazing)10. The Darjeeling Limited // beautiful film making mixed with the kind of humour i love11. This Short Film // called Apricot -- the most beautiful series of moving images that i've seen, period12. Moonrise Kingdom // favourite movie of 2012, wes anderson does it againHave you guys seen these ones? If Dave had contributed there would be a lot more Star Wars on this list, ha! What are some of your go-to movies? I'd love to hear if there are more that we should add to our list!We have a weekend off, which will be used to catch up on work and hopefully make it outside and enjoy a movie if we're lucky. Enjoy yours, whatever you're up to! Images above from a few weekends ago on our phones. xo, jenn
